[9/30/1910] about 7 o'clock after an illness of about 10 days. He was
born near Mt. Airy, N. C., Dec. 25, 1828. With his father John Harris he
came to Scott county when a young man and became a blacksmith and a good
one. While a young man he married Mrs. Serena Carter, a daughter of
Allen J. Carter, of the Rye Cove branch of the Carter family. To them
were born Mrs. I. N. Gobble, of Duffield, Va., Mrs. W. L. McKinney, of
Quinlan, Texas, H. S., M. D., Floyd and Flora Harris and Mrs. Alice, who
survive him. His aged wife also survives him. About 1858 he was made a
Master Mason in Catlett Lodge No. 35 at then Estilville, now Gate City,
Va. At the time of his death he was a member of Duffield Lodge No. 257,
Duffield, Va. For years he was a minister of the gospel and was endowed
by nature with a powerful physique and strong. He was a Confederate
soldier, a member of the 64th Va. and saw service under the gallant Col.
J. B. Richmond and A. L. Pridemore. He died at Pattonsville, Va. He was
buried by the Masonic Fraternity who took charge of his remains at his
late residence and bore them to their final resting place at the Monroe
grave yard, where sleep the McKinneys and the Carters. He was a member
of the Confederate Camp of veterans at Gate City, Va. His funeral
services were conducted by Elder A. J. Carter at the grave. He has
answered the final roll call, taps have been sounded, and Like his
favorite hero Stonewall Jackson, he has crossed over the river to rest
under the shadow of the
trees. From
family member records (maybe Gate City Herald) Submitted by Don Lane ROBERT STEVENSON HARRIS Gate City, Virginia "IN MEMORY OF R. S. HARRIS. Soldier, unclasp thy trusty sword, and lay thy shield aside; For the Master thou hast Nobly fought and for the Master died. Ernest, seal and constant toil, thy unfaltering faith attest. And He who heard thy earnest wish has called thee home to rest. Bro. R. S. Harris was born near Mount Airy, Surry County, North Carolina, December 25, 1828. When a young man, he came with his father, John Harris and family to Scott County, Va., and settled near Pattonsville. Bro. Harris went to live with Colbert Fugate. He started a blacksmith shop and was one of the best smiths in this part of the State. He was a man of giant's strength and of a great natural power of mind. On 20th July, 1858 he was united in marriage to Serena E. Carter, daughter of Allen J. and Sarah Carter. To them were born Sallie, the wife of Mr. I. N. Gobble, of Duffield, Va., Rebekah, the wife of Mr. W. L. McKinney, of Wieland, Texas; Alice, wife of Mr. A. S. Bell, of Pattonsville, Va.; Miss Ann and Flora who are unmarried , and H.S., M.D., Floyd Harris, and all of whom survive him. He is also survived by his aged wife. Others of his children died many years ago. About the year 1853, he was made a Master Mason in Catlett Lodge Number 35, at what is now Gate City, Va. For many years he kept his membership there. At length he demitted from this Lodge and was for many years was nonaffiliate. To be a Mason was always considered by him to be a man, and for a stranger to approach him as a Mason was about .... About the year 1900, he presented his dimit from Catlett Lodge to Duffield Lodge No. 257, and was received as a member of this Lodge where he was a member at the time of his death. When Civil War broke out in 1861, he cast his fortunes with the South and enlisted in the 64th Virginia Regiment, Co. I, Capt William Richmond and served through the war. As part compensation for his services, Virginia paid him a pension for total disability. Bro. Harris was baptized July 1865 by Elder J. W. Foster, of the Church of Christ. Sometime afterward, for some reason, he became dissatisfied with his church relations and united with the Free Will Baptist Church and was ordained to preach. In the process of time, he became dissatisfied with this church and withdrew from it. He then connected himself with the Methodist Protestant and was authorized by the domination to preach, he did not remain with this church a great while. For a short time preceding his death, he had been affilating with the Primitive Baptist, but expressed himself to the writer in these words; "I am not where I want to be." Bro. Harris was a peculiar man in different respects. It seem difficult for him to come to a definite conclusion upon many things and whatever the conclusion, he wished it to be right. He was a man of fiery temper, quick to resent whatever seemed to cross his views on any subject, and acting under his first impluse, would do and say many things that caused him to deeply regret afterwards. A short time before his death and during his last illness, on being approached by a friend upon the subject of death, he expressed that he resigned himself to the will of God. During his last short illness he neither murmured nor complained. It was apparent to all and himself that he was face to face with death. He refused medicine and took but little nourishment. Early on the morning of September 16th, 1910, it was seen he was sinking rapidly, and ere the sun had glided the mountains he loved so well, his spirit fled. He was 81 years, 6 months and 21 days of age. On Sept 17 a special communication of Duffield Lodge A. F. & A. M. was called and arrangements made for his burial. A procession was formed and went to his residence near Pattonsville and too charge of his remains and tenderly bore them to the McKinney burial ground and after a funeral discourse by Elder A. J. Carter the Masonic Fraternity according to its beautiful and impressive ritual, deposited them in the grave. He was one of the oldest Masons in state. Brethren, whatever the eccentricities or foibles of Bro. Harris, we loved him. Let us hope that we will meet him within the vail. Let us hope like him we may be crowned with the glory of years, and as we approach death, we can gather our mantles about us and "lie down as to pleasant dreams." We, in our hearts, fell constrained to say: "Soldier, go sing the victor's song, received the conqueror's crown; For thou was faithful to thy trust and at thy post was found; Go, sing that wondrous new made song where saints and angels dwell; And those that thou hast turned from sin will soon its chorus swell, " Pursuit to the order of Duffield Lodge No. 257 A. F. & A. M. , in its Hall assembled on the 17th day of September, 1910, we the undersigned committee report the following resolutions; "Whereas our beloved friend and brother, Robert S. Harris, after being a Mason for about fifty years, has in the mysterious ways of Providence unknown to us, been removed from our midst by death, therefore, be it resolved; That we cherish his memory and commend his zeal and long life devoted to the cause of masonry as worthy of emulation; That the Lodge be draped in mourning and that the brethren wear the usual badge of mourning for a period of thirty days; That a copy of these resolutions be spread on minutes of the Lodge, another be furnished The Gate City Herald with request for publication; and another be furnished to the family of our deceased brother.

C.; two sisters, Mrs. Eva McClellan, Fort Blackmore, Mrs. Nannie Jones, Kingsport. Funeral arrangements are incomplete and will be announced later by the Gate City Funeral Home. (Monday, June 4, 1962, Kingsport Times) Kingsport Times SERENA E. HARRIS. Obit/Memorial published in Gate City newspaper stated: "IN MEMORY OF MRS. SERENA E. HARRIS. Wife of R. S. Harris and daughter of Allen J. and Sarah Carter. 'There is a reaper whose name is death, And with his sickle keen, He reaps the bearded grain at a breath And the flowers that grow between.' Mrs. Harris was born December 30, 1838, and died May 11, 1911, aged 72 years, 4 months and 12 days. She obeyed the gospel in July, 1865 under the magnetic preaching of the gospel of Christ by Elder J. W. Foster, of Monterey, Ky. Her natural disposition was kind and she was gentle to all with whom she came in contact. Being religiously inclined from her early childhood she never wandered from childish innocence. Several years ago she sustained a fall, from which she never recovered, but during all the years of acute suffering that followed with protracted agonies, she was patient, realizing that there were only the trials incident to a short and hasty journey through this visible world. No storm of passion disturbed the deep sense of repose of her gentle, quiet suffering soul. Quietly and meekly she waited for the great and happy exchange. "Blessed are those who do Christ's commandants that they have a right to the tree of the life and the rest from their labors." Sister Harris leaves a large circle of friends and relatives who will cherish her memory, and though death has severed the ties that bind loving hearts on earth, with patience will we wait for a happy greeting where the parting is known. Sister Harris descended from distinguished ancestry, being seventh in line from Thomas Carter of Oxford, England, who was a soldier and adherent of Charles the First, King of England in King Charles' war with Oliver Cromwell the English usurper, said Carter fled to Lancaster County, VA in 1650 to save his head from the bands of Cromwell. She is also a great granddaughter of John McKinney, who settled in this section in 1801. On the maternal side, also, she is connected with the great Martin family of Lee County, VA. Her father Allen J. Carter, was a member of the Rye Cove branch and was a brother of Hon. Jos. H and Elijah E. Carter, recently deceased. She was survived by five daughters: I .N. Gobble of Duffield, Mrs. L. W. McKinney of Hunt County, TX, Mrs. A. S. Bell of Pattonsville, Misses Anna and Flora Harris of Pattonsville, and also by three sons, H. S. Harris, M. D. and B. F. Harris of Pattonsville on Duffield Route One, also many grandchildren, one brother A. J. Carter, and one sister Nancy M. Harris.Sister thou art at rest in that country so bright and so fair, beyond days decline, rest in that fair and happy land. May God bless her children and may they so also live this life that they may meet dear mother again. We cannot refrain from again quoting a few more lines from our great American poet; 'They all shall bloom in the fields of light, Transplanted by my care, And saints upon their garments white, These scared blossoms wear."

Carter [her brother]" Obituary for Serena Elizabeth Carter Harris retyped by a great-great grandchildSubmitted by Wes Bell Earl Harrison Jr. KINGSPORT - Earl Harrison , Jr., 73, entered into rest Wednesday evening (Feb. 4, 2004) at Wellmont Holston Valley Medical Center after a lengthy illness.
