He played a significant part in the early anti and pro-slavery debates in Bristol. ==Early life and family== John Harris was born around 1725. Little is known of his early life. In 1745 he joined Broadmead Baptist Church, was baptised in 1746 and became a deacon in 1760. He was trained as a hosier and built a successful hosiery and linen drapery business but he moved into sugar refinery later in his life. His wife, Sarah, was the cousin of a preacher at Broadmead, Hugh Evans. Together they had 4 sons and 2 daughters. In 1773 his second son, Francis was apprenticed as a sugar refiner for seven years. This ultimately led to John Harris entering the Sugar refining business himself with his two sons and in 1784 he bought a business in Lewins Mead.
