But that's about 2-300 years ago. You might find it more helpful if you could provide any kind of name and geographical location and time period. The Barefoots are many and far-flung. There is a good book about the Barefoot line called: Barefoot Families Of The South by Sue Cannady Barefoot of North Carolina, published in 2005. Check the internet for places that might have it for sale, or ask your local library or Family History Center if they might have copy or obtain one through an interlibrary loan.
