PYNN, HARRIS
I was away from genealogy for a long time due to computer glitches, etc. However, I have a lot of info on Dorcus Pynn, who married Samuel Harris when she was 21. Her children, as you know, were John Harris, Ambrose and Charles. She had 8 siblings; 3 brothers and 5 sisters. If you want or need what I have, please get back to me. Not sure we're related but when I was researching Newfoundland for my maternal grandfather - I put down ANY and ALL PYNN information. Let me know. After all, what's 12 years when you're doing genealogy, right? LOL

You may or may not have the following info but this is what I have:
Dorcas Pynn b. 5/25/1852 New Melbourne Nfld, CN married 11/20/1873 to Samuel Harris @ age 21. Children as follows: John, Ambrose, and Charles.
Parents of Dorcas: Henry Pynn and Jane Harris (odd, her mom's maiden name became Dorcas' married name); Siblings to Dorcas as follows:
John 11/10/1837; Elizabeth Ann 8/29/1840; Isabella 8/15/1842; Susannah 7/9/1844 - d. 2/9/1851; Henry 6/5/1846 - d. 11/22/1904; Francis 7/10/1850; Dorcas 5/25/1852; Jane 7/8/1854 - buried 6/26/1928 in Concepcion Bay North; Grace, May 1858 - d 9/26/1952.
I have this because I was researching my maternal grandfather Henry (Harry) Gordon Pynn, born in St. Johns, Nfld. Hope I've given you something you don't already have. Celia

My father's sister's name is Dorcas Harris and she married Abner Goodwin in Newfoundland. She and Abner had one daughter named Florence, although we all called her Eleanor (don't know why). Dorcas passed away about 1982 and I[m not sure if daughter Eleanor is still living. I have a family picture of Dorcas (who had changed her name to Doris), Abner and Eleanor. Don't know if this is the Dorcas you are looking for.
