Glad to hear of someone on the list with EN roots. My BARBERs are from around Great Yarmouth. My oldest known is Jane BARBER, age 27, born Thurlton (not Thurston, I believe) as stated in the 1851 census and her 2 children, Jonathon BARBER, age 6 born Heckingham, and Elizabeth, age 1, also born Heckingham. Jonathon was my ggrandfather. He married Anna Maria BRABBINS and had 8 children. He came to Ohio in the US around 1909. You may contact me at ayresl@hotmail.com ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

The year 2000 is a Census Year. Most of the census will be taken by mail, so after you have filled out your census form why not make a copy of it and file with your important papers. Then your family will not have to wait 70 years to learn about you. Pass this on to all your cousins. Ed

Hi Dan, If I am understanding your post correctly that all those numbered are children of the same parent, I would suggest that possibly all those b after 1779 are most likely grandchildren rather than children. Starting 1757, 12 children would take you to 1779. The Curlee, could that be the result of a missing comma or misplaced one and could it really be "Barber Curlee" a son of the Curlee husband and Mary Barber b 20 years before the 1781 date as you indicate? Maybe I have misinterpreted the whole thing here, in which case, ignore me.

As I look at each day's new posts I see many (no, most) posts related to those whose Barber ancestry came from one of the US states. Are there any Barber's out there who can trace their ancestry back to Norfolk in England? If so, I would be more than happy to exchange info with you. Cheers from Sydney John Smith email: john_smith@one.net.au

Although I agree with the various military origins of the Capt. There were people who were nicknamed "Cap" "Capt" by people and the family began to believe he had been a Captain in some military branch. One of my children's lines swore that a particular grandfather had been a Capt during the Civil War and there was even an obituary saying so. HOWEVER, his military records showed he had been promoted to a Sgt, deserted his company, been caught, busted, and ended the war as he started a Pvt. And older relative once told me that many men after the CW were nicknamed the "Cap" as in "Hey, Cap (t)" when they were met on the street, etc. Whether he was called Capt to cover his tracks, or as a term of endearment by society is up for speculation. I just thought I would throw that in as an example of not trusting some information------although I realize in this situation, it's coming from other records and isn't applicable.

Hello, Do you need some assistance with Alachua County research? I live in Gilchrist County, and do research in Dixie, Levy and Alachua Counties. Many Barbers are buried here. Please let me know what Barber names you're looking for.

If you were referring to William Barber (b. 1789 North Carolina, d. 1876 Cobb County, GA), there's no evidence of him leaving Georgia. I believe there was a William and Moses Barber in Montgomery Co., GA. Ken JeanneGodwin wrote: > Could this William have later moved to FL? Any data?

Hello Jeanne, What part of Florida are your Barber's from? I live in Gilchrist County Fl. and have recently been visiting the cemeteries in Dixie and Levy Counties. There are many Barbers buried here. I would be happy help you if you could email the Barber names.

I tend to scan old photos at a rather high resolution of 1200 dpi. Black & White photos are scanned in Photo gray. I haven't done too much with color photos yet but I scan them in millions of colors but at a lower resolution as they can yield really large files. Written items such as photocopies of census, notes, letters, etc. I scan at 400 dpi. I find that I get better legibility if I scan these items as photogray and then try to edit it to black and white. If I don't get good results with the conversion, I keep the photogray. I have some photos like yours and I scan the photographer and location as it is great documentation. I also scan any handwritten notes on the back of the photo (I like preserving samples of my relatives handwriting.) Some photos that I scanned from the turn of the last century were on postcards. Again I scanned the back for the handwritten notes, addresses and the stamps. If there was very little writing with no address or stamp, I cropped it to just the handwritten note. I scan at the high resolutions because, I can zoom in on the details and find hidden facts, read some details on signs, or papers in the picture. I have been able to read some handwritten notes of names in the edges of some old linotype photos. These names I was able to tie to names in a cemetery lot at the town's cemetery. Hope this helps.

Do you have - or know where I can get - a list of books published on the Barber family? I am looking for the FL branch, though they must have started elsewhere.

Seeking information on William Francis Barber. Born in Orange Co., FL in 1856. Died there in 1914. Who were his parents? from where? dates of birth and or death? Thanks you!
