I quickly looked through my grandmother's notes and papers and did not immediately find the newspaper clipping to which I referred earlier. However, I did find the "memorial information" distributed at Willis J. Barrington's funeral in Florida. The basic information is the following: Willis J. Barrington Born December 24, 1868 Died May 8, 1957 Tampa, Florida Services: Bloomingdale Baptist Church Officiating: Rev. S. L. Dombrosky Interment: Bloomingdale Cemetery In a list of Marion Madison Barrington's children I find, in my grandmother's hand, "Willis Gordon or Jordan Barrington." At some point she was not sure of his middle name. The information above (initial J.), however, would indicate that he was named or used the name Willis Jordan. Willis Jordan Barrington was the son of Marion Madison Barrington and Ann Margaret Heidt and the brother of my great grandfather John Madison Barrington.
