is near Windham. Is now Wyoming, Pennsylvania Martin Henderson Harris was born in Windham Township and was the son of Emer Harris and Debora Lott. Martin Harris, who was one of the three witnesses to the LDS Church's Book of Mormon, was his uncle. Martin Henderson Harris was baptized a member of the LDS Church in September 1842, near Nauvoo, Illinois.
Martin H. Harris served as a member of the Nauvoo Legion and as a body guard to Joseph Smith in Nauvoo. He witnessed the laying of the cornerstone of the Nauvoo Temple.
After the expulsion of the Saints from Nauvoo, Martin found work at various places to earn money for supplies to go west. In 1850, he went to Kanesville, Iowa, where he joined the William Snow Company. They crossed the plains and arrived in Salt Lake City on 23 September 1850. From there he moved to Brown's Fort for a short time before locating in Ogden Fort.
In 1851, Harris built a house in Harrisville, west of the Four Mile Creek, and he began farming. He was not only the first permanent settler in the area, but he opened his home to use as the first school in the settlement. He was also involved in public enterprises. In 1868, when Weber County officials organized the area into a precinct, they named it "Harrisville" in his honor.
Harris married Georgeanna Marion Aldous on 18 January 1855, in Bingham's Fort. They had one child named Emer. Georgeanna died on 30 October 1858, from blood poisoning after cutting her hand while helping Martin skin an ox that had suddenly died. On 3 April 1858, Martin married Louisa Sargent in Ogden. They were the parents of six children: Leander Sargent, Louisa Georgeanna, Nathan John, Martin Dennison, Louisa Priscilla, and Ida Ellen.
Martin. H. Harris was an active member of the LDS Church. When church officials organized the settlement into a branch, he was called as a counselor to the branch president. He was the first superintendent of the district Sunday School and served as district/ward clerk for many years. He served two missions. In 1857, he traveled to the Salmon River Idaho area and, in 1877, he served in the Eastern States. He came home from the second mission in ill health.
