In 1892 his father came to the West and shortly afterwards was followed by his brother Dr. Edward Harris; his wife and family, consisting of Reg, Ivan and two daughters, of whom Reg was the eldest. The Harris family lived for awhile at Regina and Swift Current, coming to Maple Creek in 1904, where they located a ranch in Cypress Hills.’
