update to this post made 17th January 2010 : I have made many new contacts through this website already, and as a result have successfully just made contact with David Harris, son of Lionel Harris Junior, grandson of my fathers grandfather, who I hav been trying to track down for quite a while now. David is my fathers cousin so I perservered!  Anyway, we made contact by phone – just today, and it turns he is living about 30 miles from my home… Its so great to be in touch!!!   Sophia Pari-Jones, and Piluca in Spain will be thrilled to learn I have made contact. The wonders of the internet never cease to amaze me… I am saying that a lot these days !!!

1979-lionel-enriqueta-david-harris-paloma-jose-borja I am searching for David Harris (born in the late 1940′s) and to date have not had any luck other than only just receiving this photo which was taken in 1979. Do you know the young man on the right? The other people in the photograph from the left are: Paloma, little Borja and Jose Buces from Madrid, and Lionel, Enriqueta and David Harris from England.  If you know David Harris or have his contact details, PLEASE contact me or send David a link to this posted article, so that he can contact me – thank you. I know David Harris was born in Brighton, has a brother called Anthony who is about 40 years older  than David, and that Davids father is called Lionel Harris son of Lionel Harris senior (nmy great grandfather) who was the owner of the Spanish Art Gallery in London. Davids Great grandfather was called William Harris.

The above photograph was taken in Madrid in 1979, and shows Lionel and Enriqueta Harris (my fathers Uncle and Aunt), David Harris (Lionels son) with Jose Buces’s family who live in Madrid.

Sophia Pari-Jones from Caernarfon, in North Wales, met David when he was about 10 years old when she came to London to visit with William Harris (Bill), who was visiting London to visit his three sisters, Enriqueta, Violetta, and Conchita Harris. William ran an Antiques Shop in Caernarfon in the 60′s called “The Regent Antiques company” antique-shop . My parents only last month went to Caernarfon to meet Sophia to learn all they could about William Harris, my fathers father, as none of us, until now,  knew what had actually  happened to him after the war. We thought he may have died in the war but just this year discovered that he had lived in North Wales until he died in 1982. Sophia has lost touch with David many years ago, and would also like to make contact with him again.

So if you know David or if you are actually David and reading this posting, it would be really wonderful if you could please Contact ME, through the contact form on this website and I will definately RSVP immediately.
