Biography
John Harris Tyner was born about 1696 in Carolina Colony. [1] He is the son of Sarah Tyner and John Harris, who were not married to one another.
John is the grandson of Nicholas Tyner.
John Harris Tyner married Sarah Adair who was born in 1710 in South Carolina, and died in March 1779 at Wilkes, Elbert, Georgia.[citation needed]
He had at least five children: [1]
- John Tyner (bet 1735-1738 – 1780)
- Richard Tyner (bet 1735-1740 – 1824)
- Harris Tyner (1740 – abt 1778)
- Caleb Tyner (abt 1744)
- William Tyner
John Harris Tyner, legatee of John Harris, gave in 1759 by deed of gift to his son John Tyner the 235 or 245 acres he owned in Chowan County.[citation needed] By this time his family were in Johnston County. John Tyner sold off the remainder of this Chowan land in 1764.[citation needed] In 1767 Haris Tyner Sr. was referred to in Johnston Court Minutes as an "aged person," incapable of business.[citation needed] He must have died soon after this. Richard disappeared from Johnston records then, and Harris was in South Carolina by 1770. John remained in Johnston and left a will there in 1780, naming children Jesse and John Tyner and Millie Hood. Jessee Tyner left a will in Johnston County in 1818.[citation needed]
John Harris Tyner died in 1767 in Johnson County, North Carolina. John Harris Tyner was mentioned on a memorial.[1]
In July 1767, Harris Tyner appeared on a jury list in Chowan County, North Carolina.[2]
"Jul 1767 Ordered that HARRIS TYNER SR be recommended as a poor aged person incapable of performing public duties & paying taxes."[3]

John Harris-3805's will (dated 16 Dec 1711) made bequests to the children of Sarah Tyner (and others have concluded these were his biological children: Harris Tyner-28 [this profile here], William Tyner-44 and Sarah Tyner-45.
Documents (citations missing) from the time of Harris Tyner-28 [this profile] name only one son John Tyner-15. I've posted a comment below asking for sources for a) the marriage to Sarah Adair and b) the other children.
(NOTE: As of this date (5 Mar 2024), there is a duplicate of THIS profile at Tyner-135.)
It cites the will of John Harris, not of John Harris Tyner. I don't see a will for John Harris Tyner. And the Find-a-Grave link there goes to someone entirely different.
If John Harris Tyner had a will, it would be great to see it.
John Harris Tyner, the son of Sarah Tyner and John Harris, who were not married to one another, was born in 1696 in Carolina and died in 1767 in Johnson County, North Carolina. John Harris Tyner married Sarah Adair who was born in 1710 in South Carolina, and died in March 1779 at Wilkes, Elbert, Georgia. Based on this message, I have made changes to this profile.
