His Rockwood roots go back to 1821 when his great-grandfather, John Harris, first arrived here. His great-grandmother, Jane Weatherald, was the sister of William, founder of the Rockwood Academy. Wasley's father, Wasley Harris senior (1876-1916), was born in Rockwood to Samuel Harris and Susanna Starr. The senior Wasley Harris later relocated to St. Catharines where he farmed until a farming accident in the summer of 1916 resulted in his death. Annie Pasmore was the daughter of Dr. William Julius Pasmore (1841-1915) and Laura Amelia Hendry. Annie's parental grandparents were Robert Pasmore and Sarah Mickle of Rockwood.
