    Notes:

    Conversion Story

    Moses Harris tells the story of when he first became engaged to his sweetheart, Fanny Smith. Her father, Thomas Dodd Smith, took Moses aside when they were cutting wood one day. He quietly spoke with his future son-in-law, explaining that he took Moses to be a sober and righteous man. He told him that the true church was not on the face of the earth at that time, but that it would come in Moses' life time. He entreated Moses not to forget his wife's parents when that time came. So important was this message to Thomas Dodd Smith, he repeated it to Moses one more time, six months after his marriage to Fanny.Moses and Fanny married in June of 1824. February 27, 1833, Moses and Fanny were baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Later-day Saints. He did not forget his promise to his wife's father. He made certain, as soon as he was able, to perform the ordinances of baptism and confirmation for his now deceased in-laws, thereby fulfilling the promises he'd made in 1824 and 1825.


    Moses Harris, son of Silas and Annarette Wright Harris, was born in Flitch, Somerset county, Pennsylvania, July 20, 1798. On the 1st of January, 1824, he was united in marriage to Fanny Smith. Moses and his wife were baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Missouri . In time seven children were born to this couple, but during their migrations with their co-religionists a son and two daughters passed away. They were in Council Bluffs when the call came for the Mormon Battalion and their eldest son Silas joined. After the Battalion disbanded in California , Silas returned to his family in the states and helped them make the necessary preparation for the trek across the plains. An incident of note was the marriage of Silas to Sariah Aldridge solemnized at Independence Rock the 2nd of September, 1849.

    The first home of the Harris family was in Bountiful, Utah, and there they remained until the spring of 1851, when they went to San Bernardino, California. Mr. Harris bought forty acres of farm land, paying at the rate of $10.00 per month for it. Not having it fully paid for when the settlement broke up, he had no title and so lost the land and all the improvements. In the fall of 1857, they came back to Utah, and settled in Washington, Washington county in February of that year. Harrisburg was named in honor of Moses Harris by Brigham Young. For four years they continued to live there then accompanied their sons, John S., his wife Sarah Eiler, and Silas to Berryville, now Glendale in 1864. Because of Indian trouble they returned to Harrisburg in 1867 , where they remained three years helping to build the town of Leeds. In November, 1879, the Harris families returned to Glendale where they lived until the death of Moses Harris.

    Moses married Frances Smith on 19 Jan 1824 in Bono, Lawrence, Indiana, USA. Frances (daughter of Thomas Dodd Smith and Keziah Bondurant) was born on 18 Apr 1805 in , Bedford, Virginia, USA; died on 3 Jan 1891 in Glendale, Kane, Utah, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
