About Me
My name is Brian H. Harris and I reside in historic Philadelphia, PA. I consider myself a student of history and I am a current board member of the Historical Society of Frankford. My main focus in history is local Philadelphia history and also early National Football League, of which I currently research and speak on the Frankford Yellow Jackets.

I have also had a book published *Frankford (Images of America) and I hope to have one out on the Frankford Yellow Jackets soon.

I was born and raised in Philadelphia and lived for a short time in Bucks County, PA. I have recently moved back to Philadelphia and can be found roaming the streets of Bustleton and walking around Pennypack Park.

I have researched my family tree and just about all sides go back well into the 1700's.

My first entry to be vandalized
My entry on Mercy Vocational High School. It amazes me that people have so much time on their hands that they go around messing with other peoples' work. What confuses me the most is that they leave their fingerprints all over the place in here, not just their IP address but also little clues. Now this must be a current student at the school who doesn't like where they are. I also checked out their history and they put a big fat WAS on a Rick Santorum entry, in reference to his lost reelection. Sad that people are bitter, or should I say still bitter in their temporary happiness.

Also, what a waste of time it is for them to go through all of that trouble to mess with an entry when it is easily reverted. They are then reported and of course they will create another account and continue to do the same thing. All this effort and it is simply undone with the press of a button.

Now I officially have an entry to watch on a daily basis and something official now to report to Wikipedia. Happy happy joy joy.
