well I've had a look on the Mormon LDS site and strange to say I cannot find one Harris in Norfolk - I am staggered that there are none in the 1881 census

Have you tried viewing the actual pages of the Trowse Registers. It is quite time consuming but if you know the parish as I did it can be a really great aid.
