Sir William Harris was Knighted on July 23, 1603 at Otelands by King James I of England. This same King gave us the King James verson of the Bible.
The English place of Orgin of the particular Harris family to be related herein is located some 40 to 50 miles east-north-east of London and on the north bank of the River Crouch.
The very old village of Cricksea (or Creeksea) exists today on this peninsula in Essex County. Creeksea is located about 2 miles west of Burnham-on-the -Crouch and about 18 miles inland from the North Sea. Anciently Called "Danes Island", this area was inhabitted largely by Norman families after the conquest 1066.
Here was the home of our immigrant ancestor, John Harris, and his parents, lady Alice and Sir William Harris.
Captain Thomas Harris was a nephew of Sir. Thomas Smith, Treasurer of the Virginia Company and Governor of the East India Company, and was grandson of "Customer" Smith who rose from obscurity in Queen Elizabeth's time by marrying the daughter of Sir Andrew Judd, the Lord Mayor, of humble origin himself. Sir William Harris, father of Captian Thomas, was descended from Sir thomas Percy, executed ! in Aske's Rebellion; five Percy Earls of Northumberland, the Spencers, Calthorpes, Drury's, Howards, Wentworth's and Waldegraves."
