Is William a son of

Thomas HARRIS & Patence WHITE
28 Dec 1820 Semley, Wiltshire, England
Batch M154622

probably not as he is not one of those baptised in NSW after 1837 arrival.

This is Elizabeth who married in 1853 marriage but I'm lost re William.

Elizabeth c. 19 Nov 1837 St Mary Great Ilford, Essex, England
Reuben LEEDER & Martha

I thought I had brothers marrying sisters but maybe not

3063/1864 HARRIS GEORGE - LEADER MARTHA - RYLSTONE * 21 Mar

George b. 3 May 1841 c. 15 Apr 1844 Hartley, NSW
Thomas HARRIS & Prudence WHITE
Batch C003478


Patience becomes Prudence after arrival.

Does not fit.

Death HARRIS ELIZABETH 7388/1905 WILLIAM - FRANCES S - YOUNG

Probably the wrong deaths for the William and Elizabeth nee Leader who married in 1853.

No death for an Elizabeth Harris with parents Reuben & Martha in NSW index. Ditto Elizabeth *

I was right after all. Brothers William & George Harris married Leader sisters.

I'm missing the baptism of William in Semley, Wilts abt 1827 ?
