HI Rob, I was wondering if you have a connection to the Thomas Jefferson Barnes family of Pulaski county Kentucky? He was married to Mary Ellen Ping.

Sorry, Other than the Barnes who seemed to have property in Warren and nearby Barren County, KY I have no direct information on other Barnes. A Samuel Barnes, who seemed to have arrived from NC, was also living in adjacent Logan County about the time Frederick and William arrived. I don't think Samuel is related because of his origin in NC.
