David Harr

#166, b. 16 June 1820, d. between 1887 and 1900
Relationship2nd great-grandfather of Paul Edward Lawrence.
     David Harr was born on 16 June 1820 in Washington Co., Virginia.1,2,3,4 He married first Mary Jane Leonard say 1841 probably in Washington Co., Virginia. David married second Mary Ann Leonard on 9 April 1866 in Sullivan Co., Tennessee.5 David died between 1887 and 1900 in Lyon Co., Kansas.
     

     David Harr (Jr.) as well as his brothers Adam and Elkanah served in the Confederate Army during the Civil War.

     According to combined Confederate Civil War records located at the National Archives in Washington, D. C., David Harr was enlisted on Sept. 25, 1862, by Maj. J. A. Rhea, in G Company of Crawford's Regiment of the 60th Mounted Infantry for a period of three years. He was listed on company muster rolls Sept. 25, 1862; Nov. 7, 1862; Jan. & Feb. 1963; Mar. & Apr. 1863; and from May 1, 1863, to Apr. 30, 1864 (dated Sept. 10, 1864). He was captured at Vicksburg on July 4, 1863, and paroled on July 8, 1863, according to the terms of capitulation entered into by the commanding Generals of the United States and Confederate forces. Under the release condition that David Harr signed, he was "not to take up arms against the United States, nor serve in any military police or constabulary force in any Fort, garrison, or field work held by the Confederate States of America, nor as guard of prisons, depots or stores, nor discharge any duties usually performed by Officers or soldiers, against the United States of America, until duly exchanged by the proper authorities."

     He next appeared on a roll dated Aug. 18, 1864, at Zollicoffer, Tennessee, of officers and men who were paroled at Vicksburg, Mississippi, July 4, 1863, and who have reported at Zollicoffer, Tennessee, prior to Aug. 15, 1864.

     Next David appeared on prisoner of war records at Knoxville, Tennessee, stating that he was captured Dec. 14, 1864, at Sullivan County, Tennessee, and sent to Chattanooga, Tennessee, Dec. 25, 1864. The following prisoner of war records indicate that his capture was at Bristol, Tennessee and follow his captivity through the end of the war: a roll dated Jan. 8, 1865, Nashville, Tennessee, indicated that he was being forwarded to Louisville, Tennessee (believe they meant Kentucky); arrival at Louisville, Kentucky, Jan. 11, 1865; sent to Camp Chase, Ohio, Jan. 14, 1865; paroled at Camp Chase, Ohio and sent to Point Lookout, Maryland, Feb. 17, 1865, for exchange; and finally appears on a Hospital Muster Roll (not dated, but with an indication that he was paid March 6, 1865 and that he had last been paid May 1, 1864) at the 5th Division, General Hospital Camp Winder, Richmond, Virginia.6

     His first wife, Mary Jane, died July 27, 1865, evidently either before he returned home or shortly thereafter. The marriage record for his first marriage has never been found. He married his second wife, Mary Ann Leonard, on Apr. 9, 1866, in Sullivan County, Tennessee. Mary Ann, maiden name unknown, evidently had been married to a Leonard and had a small child named Able whom she brought into the marriage to David.

     David Harr and family moved to Jackson Township, Lyon Co., Kansas, in about 1871. In August of 1871, his son Raleigh and step-son Able drowned in the Neosho River. His son Edward Hunter married in Emporia, Kansas in 1874.

     David eventually became a merchant in Neosho Rapids, Kansas. The following appeared in the Neosho Valley Press, Jan. 20, 1887 - Uncle David Harr has just received several tons of Topeka flour and can supply you with the best the market affords at from $1.10 to $1.50 per sack. He endeavors to keep at all times a full supply of beef, pork, lard, sausage, butter and everything usually found in a well regulated meat market and at prices to suit the times. Give him your trade in the above articles.

     In the Township Clerk's book, Jackson Township, Lyon County, Kansas, David was granted a license to run a pool table on Lot (12) Block (33) in the town of Neosho Rapids for a term of one year, for payment of $50, on 14th day of May 1886. The license was again granted for a term of one year from June 1, 1887, upon payment of the sum of fifty dollars.

     From the above it would appear that David died sometime between 1887 and 1900. On the 1900 U. S. Census for Lyon Co., Kansas, his wife Mary was listed as a widow. His youngest child also was born in 1887.

     In the Census of 1850, enumerated 30 September 1850, David Harr was listed as a head of household in Washington Co., Virginia. He was listed at age 28, occupation as a farmer with property value of $400, born in Virginia.. Also enumerated in the household: Mary Jane Harr, Robert D. Harr, William Harr and Edward Hunter Harr.2

     In the Census of 1860, enumerated 13 July 1860, David Harr was listed as a head of household in Sullivan Co., Tennessee. He was listed at age 37, occupation as a carpenter, with real estate value of $1000 and personal property value of $400, born in Virginia.. Also enumerated in the household: Mary Jane Harr, Robert D. Harr, William Harr, Edward Hunter Harr, Elizabeth A. Harr, David E. Harr, John Ensor Harr and Raleigh W. Harr.4

     In the Census of 1870, enumerated 14 June 1870, David Harr was listed as a head of household in Sullivan Co., Tennessee. He was listed at age 50, occupation as a farmer, with real estate value of $1200 and personal property value of $800, born in Virginia..

Harr.3 David was a farmer in 1870 in Sullivan Co., Tennessee.

     In the Census of 1880, enumerated 11 June 1880, David Harr was listed as head of household in Jackson, Lyon Co., Kansas. He was listed at age 59, occupation as a farmer, born in Virginia. Also enumerated in the household: Mary Ann Harr, Virginia E. Harr, Martha A. Harr, Charles Harr, George F. Harr and Adda B. Harr.7 In 1880 David was a farmer in Lyon Co., Kansas.

Edward Hunter Harr
     Edward Hunter Harr was born on 4 November 1847 in Washington Co., Virginia.1,2,3,4,5 He married Columbia Caroline Byerly, daughter of John W. H. Byerly and Amanda Henton, on 3 September 1874 in Emporia, Lyon Co., Kansas.1,6,7 Edward died of of typhoid fever on 6 September 1884 in Johnson City, Washington Co., TN, Johnson City, Washington Co., Tennessee, at age 36.8 He was interred in September 1884 in Old Harr Cemetery in Sullivan Co., Tennessee.8
     

     Edward Hunter Harr married Columbia (Lummie) Byerly in Emporia, Lyon Co., Kansas, at the residence of R. L. Dishner. Robert L. Dishner's wife, Elizabeth, was a sister of Lummie. Edward's father, David, had moved his family to Kansas in 1871. Columbia's father, John Byerly, also moved from Tennessee to Kansas but not until 1880 according to John's obituary. Columbia may have been in Kansas visiting some relatives when she married Edward or may have come to Kansas for the specific purpose of marrying Edward. Edward and Columbia may have known each other before Edward's family moved to Kansas since the Harr and Byerly families had lived in Sullivan Co., Tennessee, during the same time period.

     Edward returned to Tennessee moving to Washington Co. prior to 1880. On the U. S. Census of 1880 Edward's brothers John and William are listed in his household. Edward Harr served as Worshipful Master for the Masonic Lodge in Johnson City, Tennessee. His picture hangs on the Wall of former Masters.

     Edward Hunter Harr apparently died from typhoid fever shortly after being elected sheriff in 1884. Family tradition has that, as a widow, Lummie supported herself and her children after Edward's death by taking in sewing.

     Edward Hunter Harr was listed at age 2, born in Virginia, as a member of the household of David Harr in Washington Co., Virginia, in the Census of 1850, enumerated 30 September 1850.2

     Edward Hunter Harr was listed at age 12, born in Tennessee, as a member of the household of David Harr in Sullivan Co., Tennessee, in the Census of 1860, enumerated 13 July 1860.3

     Edward Hunter Harr was listed at age 22, born in Virginia, as a member of the household of David Harr in Sullivan Co., Tennessee, in the Census of 1870, enumerated 14 June 1870.4

     In the Census of 1880, enumerated 1 June 1880, Edward Hunter Harr was listed as head of household in Washington Co., Tennessee. He was listed at age 32, occupation as a merchant, born in Tennessee. Also enumerated in the household: Columbia Caroline Harr, Robert Hunter Harr, William Harr, John Ensor Harr and Adelia N. J. Byerly.5

     The following is a transcription from the Johnson City, Tennessee Comet.

     Sheriff elect, Ed. H. Harr, is very low with typhoid fever. A host of friends are shuddering to see this exceptionally good man so near unto death. There is hope that he may be spared to raise his precious children and to still bless the community with his noble deeds and pure life.9


     Edward Hunter Harr died on that date according to the tombstone inscription. Two other related articles appeared in the Johnson City Comet.

     The first: The county court will elect sheriff to fill vacancy caused by death of Mr. Ed. Harr.

     The second: John Eakin for the Masonic Lodge at this place made arrangements with the railroad authorities for the midnight train to stop Sunday night at Union and take on the men who went from this place to the burying of Mr. Harr in Sullivan County. Twenty three of the number waited until 2 a. m. for the train. The train came and went rushing by leaving the men to wait for the morning train.10


     Tombstone inscription for E. H. Harr in old Harr cemetery, Sullivan County, Tennessee reads as follows:

E. H. Harr
Born Nov. 4, 1847
Died Sept. 6, 1884
Aged 36 yrs 10 mos 2 days

Since thou canst no longer stay
to cheer me with thy love

in yon bright world above.11

He leaves a widow and four children, Vera, aged fifteen; Frank, Wiley, and Rolley, all smaller. His wife was formerly Miss Lula Crouch; of Johnson City, sister of Wiley Crouch of this city.

He came to Bristol four years ago and opened a grocery business at No. 816 State street, which he was conducting at the time of his illness. He was a member of State Street Methodist church and an honorable and highly respected citizen. He was a first cousin of E. C. Harr, a well known citizen of Bristol.

MRS. J. E. HARR THANKS FRIENDS

     Mrs. J. E. Harr, whose husband died last week, requests teh Herald Courier to supply an omission made in the report of his death. She says the he had been married twice--the second time, October 17, 1906, to Mrs. William B. Newton, formerly Miss Sallie M. Vance. She says that his church letter was in his pocket and that he had not attended any church since his last marriage except the Landmark Baptist church. She desires to thank the friends for their kindness during her husband's illness and death.

     The following is a poem that I found among my mother's (Kathleen) effects. It is in her handwriting and I have always assume she wrote it. I have now learned that she had written several poems and a short story about Tabby the purple stuffed kitty cat. It appears that these were written after the birth of Jessie.

A Babe
(in your arms)

Ten little fingers and ten little toes
The least little bit of a button nose
Two eyes of blue, a match for the skies above
A dear little body to cuddle and love
A round little head, covered with doft golden down
A smile, a cry, a wee frown
Two dimpled arms, 'round your neck to cling tight
Someone who makes life and living seem right
All these together and a million more charms
You'll find in the joy of a babe in your arms.

     Raleigh (Rolla) and his step-brother, Abel Leonard, drowned in Neosho Rapids in 1871. The following is from the Emporia News, dated Aug. 11, 1871. A distressing accident took place at the Rapids on Saturday last, at 6 p. m. by which a Rolla Harr, aged 12 years, a son of David Harr, and Abel Leonard, aged 10 years, a step-son of the same, lost their lives by drowning. Two men and three boys undertook to cross the Neosho when the stream was very high, just above Seamans and Roberts mill dam, in a small flat boat. The boat was carried rapidly over the dam. The two men and one of the boys jumped out and made their way to the shore. The other two above named were washed over and drowned. About five hundred people turned out on Sunday to make search for the bodies. The river was dragged, but the bodies were not found up to Monday night. Mr. Harr is a newcomer, having been in the county only a few months. This bereavement falls hard upon him, and the community deeply sympathizes.

     The deceased was born in Sullivan County, Tenn., Oct. 8, 1866, and died Oct. 26, 1905, aged 39 years and 18 days. She was united in marriage to Calvin R. Childers June 24, 1884, and is survived by her husband and four children: Hattie and Lloyd, at home; Mrs. Ethel Mellinger and Reed Childers of Topeka, Kans.
     The deceased was a member of the Methodist Protestant church, from which place the funeral services were held last Sunday at 2 p.m., conducted by Rev. William Rutledge, the regular pastor being absent. Despite the heavy snow storm which prevailed on Saturday, there was a large attendance of friends and neighbors. The casket was covered with beautiful flowers which showed the high esteem in which the deceased was held. Interment was made in Neosho Rapids Cemetery.1
