Death: before 22 JUL 1686 Providence, Providence, Rhode Island (I am a descendent of his line) Early Parish Records of this family confirmed by two separate researchers (1) For additional family history go to the Harris Family in Northbourne Page Andrew Harris died in 1616 (estimated age 30) leaving his five small children ages 3 to 12. Through his will we learn of his death and find he left all to his wife Jane including the future prospects of a 50% share in a joint venture made with Mathew Hoolye (Hoile) in which she would share equally in the profit or loss of the venture. Mathew Hoile was most likely a local resident. There are a number of Hoile families listed on Tithes Record from the mid 1800’s in Northbourne. There is no Parish record of Andrew’s burial.
