William Daniel Harris was known as Billy or Donkey Harris. He was the son of William Harris and Elizabeth Rossiter who married in 1874 in Sittingbourne, as far as I am aware both families were travellers and settled in Sheerness in the 1800's. William Daniel Harris is my great-grandfather. If anyone else has any information on the Harris family going back further, would be great to know. Also, does anyone know what year the donkey rides stopped? I know William died in 1958.

Hi, does anyone have any information on the Harris family who used to run the seasonal donkey rides at Sheerness?
