Ansel was the son of Herbert R & Rachael (Wiand) Harris. He married Minnie E. Jones, March 8, 1890. They had one son that I am aware of; Herbert Harris, b. October 6, 1892.
His cemetery record gives his parents' names as shown above. However, all records I've seen spell her given name as Rachel. Also, her cemetery record states, "wife of David," so the father's name is in some doubt. I'm speculating that his father's name may have gotten confused with the name of his son, who was Herbert.
LATER: Have since confirmed that his father's name was David.
