Good morning, Friends & Cousins: In response to Nancy Ford, who asked for information on the Bargers of Sullivan County, TN, here are the Bargers listed in the 1850 and 1860 Census records. I know that leaves a big gap, but maybe some of you can help fill in the intervening generations. ************************************************ 1850 U. S. Census Sullivan Co.

Some of you who have not checked Sullivan county for your earlier generations, might want to do so. Also, I have seen mentions of Bargers being buried at Indian Springs in Sullivan County. Bye for now, and good hunting, folks! Susan Barger Donahue BARGER FAMILY HISTORY SOCIETY 411 East Roosevelt Road Wheaton, IL 60187-5564 Suzid@tripod.net
