My great grandfather, James S. Barker, was born about 1812 in Caledonia Co. VT at what was then Goshen Gore. His father's name was also James Barker and his mother was Mary ? - (maybe Gardner) and she was from New Hampshire. Other children (known) were: John G. Barker b. 1824 married Mary B.D. who lived in VT, NY, Canada, Michigan, IA and unknown after that. I heard he went to Missouri. William Barker b. 1827 married Elizabeth ? said to have gone to the Northwest. I was always told these Barker's came from Rhode Island before Vermont but cannot connect them to the Barker's from RI. Anyone know this family? Any suggestions? Coral Barker Allbee from California
