George William Harris was born 16 August 1877 Chickencreek, Juab, UT. He died 9 May 1963
Tucson, Pima, Arizona
Charles Eylor Harris (Charles Eiler "Charlie" Harris) was born 9 March 1879 Pecos Valley, Chavez, NM; died and was buried 26 March 1956 Tucson, Pima Co., Arizona. He married Mirma McGee. Her parents were James Riley McGee and Florence Sidney Lyon . She was born 1883 probably at Pecos Valley, Chavez, NM and died 1 May 1982 McGee Ranch, Pima, Arizona.
Their grandparents John and Lovina Harris moved a portion of their family over to the Bluff area, and they were there to greet the first scouting expedition who came through The Hole in the Rock looking for a shortcut to the area. Their uncle Daniel was also there with his 3 children.
Typically, most of the pioneer histories of the
Hole-in-the-Rock Expedition focus on the
adults. This site features Children of the Rock
and what happened to them after arriving
in Bluff. Approximately 40% of those
on the initial trek were children.
