Lettie Hood Harris
I have a group of 7 photographs which I'm told where all from the HOOD Family of Illinois. The photographs in this group are as follows:
1 - Lettie HOOD HARRIS, taken at Mrs. Reed Studio in Quincy, IL, 1880's, in her teens
2 - Augusta HOOD wife of Bob HOOD Sr., taken at the F. C. Bernard Studio in Quincy, IL, 1890's, in her 40's or 50's
3 - Unidentified Family, taken in 1880's, two parents in 50's, and children in teens or 20's, believe the young woman is Lettie HOOD in photo #1
4 - Unidentified young man, taken at Grand Studio in Quincy, IL, 1890's or 1900's, in his teens
5 - Group of 4 young people, 2 females and 2 males, taken at Reed Studio in Quincy, IL, all wearing flowers may be graduation, 1890's, all in teens or 20's, one man maybe the same young man in photo #4 and one young woman may be Lettie HOOD in photo #1
6 - Unidentified boy taken at Reed Studio in Quincy, IL, 1890's, about 6 years old
7 - Unidentified girl, taken at Bernard Studio in Quincy, IL, 1890's or early 1900's, about 3 years old.
Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the family:
Lettie HOOD was b. 3 May 1871 in Payson, IL to parents James HOOD (1838-1923) and Julia E. NICHOLSON (1840-1919) who were married 1 Jun 1865 in Adams County, IL. Lettie had one sibling, a brother William HOOD (1866-1910). Lettie married John W. HARRIS (1870-1929) on 22 Dec 1889 in Payson, IL and they had two children, a daughter Florence J. HARRIS (1892-1969) and a son Charles “Charley” W. HARRIS (1894-1953). Lettie died 31 Dec 1948 in Payson, IL and is buried in the Payson New Cemetery in Payson, IL.
Augusta M. LEACH was b. 14 Feb 1846 in Fort Madison, IA, her father was O. LEACH and she married Robert HOOD (1834-1913) in 1879. They had one son, Joseph E. HOOD (b. 1865). Augusta died in 1928 and is also buried in the Payson New Cemetery in Payson, IL.
I am hoping to get this group of photographs back to family and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.
Thanks,
Shelley

Eric's mother was Katherine Ann Poole. She was a homemaker and, later in his life, a caterer. His father was Wayne Harris, who worked for the Air Force as a transport pilot. (Both were raised in CO) His dad's job meant that they moved around a bit. When dad Wayne retired from the Air Force, the family moved back to Colorado. He had an older brother, Kevin.
He and his friend (and fellow shooter) met in 7th grade. Eric also had a (short term) girlfriend in high school named Typher. When she declined to go out with him any more, he staged a fake suicide "sprawling on the ground with fake blood splashed all over him. When Typher saw him she began to scream for help, at which point he and his friends began laughing, prompting Typher to storm off, shouting at Harris to get psychological help
Eric was one of the two student-gunmen (the other was his friend, Dylan B Klebold , 1981-1999) who attacked their classmates and teachers in the Columbine High School attack. They killed 13 and wounded 21 others before turning the guns on themselves. (Description from Find A Grave)

My Uncle was ROBERT LONNIE HARRIS who left home at about the age of 22. He was born- South Carolina on 12/26/1898. His mother was MAMMIE ELIZABETH WOOTEN and his father was JAMES CLYDE HARRIS. After his mother and father passed away he left home and was never heard from since. My Father tried to locate him many times with out any success.
I found on the internet a LONNIE HARRIS who married a CELIA STALVEY and they had given the right infro for his birth, mother and father. It stated he had died in 1949 AND WERE TRYING TO LOCATE HIS FAMILY.
This may be him and if it is my brothers and myself would like to meet his family if he had any children. I tried to locate the sender of this message but could not. It was posted in 1999 on genealogy.com #2895. If anyone has any information on Lonnie and Celia it would be appreciated. I will check back later to see if anyone has posted a message. I have only one picture of Lonnie at about the age when he left home.
Thanks Nancy (Harris) Howell

Lucy (Roberts) HARRIS (1826-1906) wife of William Finch HARRIS (1822-1896, b. NY) told grandchildren, "Your ancestor was lodgekeeper on the palace grounds of the King of England."
Unfortunately, she didn't say which ancestor or which king. It is highly unlikely she was referring to one of her own ancestors or to William's mother's family - which leaves the Harrises.
Does anyone else share this story?
