Following info from Marie Harris Key's book:

Edward Harris and Lora Estes Harris and their children were living in Cherokee Co., NC in 1845. Later the family migrated into Murray County, GA and were there when the 1850 census was taken. In 1859, a number of Harris families were migrating to Texas and Arkansas. Edward Harris and family were among them. Edward and Lora went to Hempstead County, Arkansas near Ozan along with their daughter Eveline Harris Robins and her husband John Bush Robins. Lora and daughters Rhoda and Elizabeth were listed on the 1860 Census there, living with John and Eveline Robins. Edward was not listed (reason unknown - could he have already died?). Edward Harris and wife Lora both died there and are buried in the Zion Cemetery near Ozan, AR (no markers for them have survived).
