There are to marriages on the IGI for a John Harris at around the right time. The nearest one to Chard is this one (however the entry is submitted and not extracted form records so would need checking:- John Harris Pedigree Male Family -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Event(s): Birth: About 1823 Wambrook, Somerset, England Christening: Death: Burial: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marriages: Spouse: Mary Fry Family Marriage: 1848 Wambrook, Somerset, England The best way to find Mary's maiden name is to order the birth certificate for one of their children.
