By 1860 he is a book keeper but correctly identified as being born in England. Caroline is listed as being 14, born Mississippi(later claimed to be born Canada) and a George aged 12 born Mississippi. Mary is not present, presumably deceased.

It is most likely that the C Thomas is John's daughter Caroline and Charles Thomas is her husband. G W Harris is likely to be John's son George W Harris. A Chas E. Thomas married a Caroline A. Harris on 11 Nov 1868 in County Warren, Mississippi.
In the 1880 census of Vicksburg, Warren, Mississippi, John B Harris, aged 56, born in England of English parents, was living with Chas B Thomas and wife Caroline, aged 29, born Canada of Canadian parents.

Frances Harris - 4 monthsIn 1854 George took up employment with Henry Fullager and Edward Smeeth. George was a coppersmith who learnt his trade with Fullager and Smeeth. By the time George went to work there they were an already well known and established firm with experience of manufacturing and working with different metals. They were also brass founders. They had a long list of things they did, repairing locomotive flues making worms and pipes for brewery and distilling equipment were just some. Edward Smeeth and George appear in the American patent records with regard to pipes for stills. George worked for the company and Edward Smeeth for thirty years until the death of Edward Smeeth after a long illness in 1882. In 1884 he set up his own firm with his brother Arthur under the style of George P Harris and Brother at 105/107 Fuller street Chicago. They were very successful and employed 27 men being described as ranking amongst the industrial Chicago institutions. They did jobbing work in copper but they also worked in tin and sheet iron so they were metal fabricators. They made much improved alcohol and spirit apparatus, brewing kettles, wine distillery and brewery equipment and much more.
Arthur had worked for 16 years for Crarer Adams later Adams Westlake who supplied anything and everything for the railways he was probably well versed in metal working but he was at the production / manufacturing end so they had what is looking like plenty of experience between them and they are also basically talented in the mechanical engineering department. It is possible the Harris track laying machine and the patent for locomotive lights may well be down to Arthur but it is only the locomotive light he can lay claim to. What they did manufacture is widely discussed and written about and high on the list is the vacuum milk pan and condenser. It is not clear if it was something that they merely improved upon or if they held the patent. Essentially it was used for producing condensed and powdered milk and it seemed that it was an integral part of the milk industry and keeps cropping up in such publications as the Milk Plant monthly. In fact there are whole books and publications on how this worked.
In 1896 George died leaving Arthur in the middle of a law suit and remaining to carry on as Arthur Harris and Co. This firm is still going today though they have had to modify their business in keeping with the times but they are not a tin pot affair. In 1957 Arthur J Harris of Arthur Harris and co died aged 75. A full obituary is in the Milk Plant Monthly. It states that the firm was founded by his father and uncle so this man is the original Arthurs son. Also in the firm is George C Harris brother of Arthur J., who became associated with company in 1907 and in the mix is possibly Elijah T Harris and looking like more than one of them. An Elijah T married Florence Bloomer of Wisconsin having 5 children including another Elijah. There is an Elijah born 4th July 1888 who died March 1974 in here somewhere.
George Polhill Harris has an obituary in Vol 69 of the Chicago Journal of Commerce and Metal Industries. He died 22nd October at his residence 1272 Washington Boulevard an old and esteemed resident and business man of Chicago. Mr Harris came to this city 43 years ago and soon became prominent in social and commercial circles.He was connected somehow to the fire brigade as a member of Co 5 of the Chicago fire dept.
Arthur J. Harris. of 626 Monroe av., River Forest, died Thursday night in Presbyterian hospital. Mr. Harris was president of Arthur Harris & Co., sheet metal fabricators at 212 N. Aberdeen st. The firm was founded by his father, George P., and uncle, Arthur, in 1894, and he had been with it for 57 years. Surviving are the widow, Eleanor P., and a brother George C."
