"James Harland, Yeoman and member of the Episcopal Church, was b. about
the year 1625 in the "Bishoprick, nigh Durham, England," and is the
earliest paternal ancestor known to the family in America bearing the
name Harlan. He lived and d. an Englishman, and was bur. upon English
soil, no one to-day knows where. Tradition says that the name of his
father was William."
"That James Harland was married according to the usages of the Established
Church there is no doubt. That his children were baptized and recorded
therein is fully established by the fact that the earliest record we have
of his son, George, is that he was "Baptised at the Monastery Monkwearmouth*
in Oald England." We have no record giving the name of the wife and
mother. So far as is known, James Harland was the father of three sons:"

Michael,b.---;d.---,1729; m. Dinah Dixon
* " Monkwearmouth Monastery was founded by Benedict Biscop in the year
A.D. 672. It is situated in a town of the same name in the east division
of Chester, County Durham, and one-half mile north of Sunderland. It
receives its name from its location near the mouth of the river Wear.
Burned and plundered time and again, only the tower and some detached
parts of the church remain of the once celebrated monastery. In 1790
the parish registers, with the exception of some of the late records,
were destroyed by fire, and it is probable that information of untold
value perished in the flames."
