Most likely your GW Barefoot was the son of David Barefoot of Columbus Co. NC. He married Armon Leader on 1 June 1845 in Barbour Co. AL. The 1860 Pike Co. AL census lists George W. Barefoot age 38, Armon age 30, Frances age 13, Franklin age 11, Marilda age 10, and David M. age 8. David Barefoot, father of GW was the son of James O. Barefoot of Columbus Co. NC. David was born about 1800 and married Rebecca, last name unknown. David is buried in the Mincey/Minshew Cemetery, Pike Co. AL. David's parents were James O. Barefoot and Delilah Mims. James O. was born about 1759 and died before the 1820 census. James O was the son of William Barefoot of Bladen, later Columbus Co., NC. William Barefoot came to Craven Co., SC from Lunenburg Co. VA with his father George Barefoot and wife Elizabeth about 1749. He was married to Amelia (probably) Joyner. William had brothers Noah and Newitt. The name Noah suggests that George was the son of Noah Barefoot of Surry Co. VA who died in 1711. Sue Cannady Barefoot of Clinton, NC has a wonderful book on the Barefoots of the South that has all this info with documentation. Hope his helps.

GW Barefoot was born in Wayne Co NC in 1823. His brother was Andrew Jackson Barefoot. The info I have is that his father was a John Barefoot, who was the son of Jeptha Barefoot of Edgecomb Co NC. John may have moved to Monroe Co ALA by 1830. I was told 1830 census records of 1830 show him living with a William Powell family. Any info would be appreciated.
