They removed to Ohio in 1834, and there passed the remainder of their lives, Mr. Ferris having been a shoemaker by trade and vocation. Mrs. Harris was the youngest in a family of ten children, of whom she is the only one yet living. The subject and his estimable wife, who has been to him a devoted companion and helpmeet, have three children.
