Grandfather's name was Harris HANAPOLSKY as far back as I've been

ancestors with the first name Harris???
In Ancestry.co.uk at the 1901 Censuses as many as 796 men living in
England who were born in Russia, and therefore all or most were Jews,
had the forename Harris; in Scotland there were 303 and in Wales there
were 19.
