Hi All ---- It's been some time since I asked about my Barnett line and so here goes again: According to the 1900 census in Arkansas, Monroe Barnett was born around 1854 in MO. Before 1900 he ended up in Ouachita, Montgomery County Arkansas. He married a Susannah A. (?) He had six children that I know of: Flora Bell Barnett b. 1882 Almedia Barnett b. 1879 Daniel Barnett b. 1886 Charles Edward Barnett b. 1890 or 91 Mary Adline b. 1884 d, 1886 Hattie May Barnett b. 1888 Monroe Barnett is my gggrandfather and I would dearly love to find more about him. If anyone could help it would be appreciated!! Thank you, Shirley Z.

As far as my records go, If I do not have proof, I usually just print the source in my Family Tree Maker, and let those who want to pick up accept it or not. If you have no reason to doubt, then I would leave the records as is. The Bible is accepted as a source by most genealogy groups, so if you can find that and make copies, you have the "proof". Also, as far as people using your research and then chastising you for mistakes - mistakes happen, each person is to do the research they find acceptable. Without proof of their own, or research on the line, it means nothing anyway. That said - there is a website for the Barnett line that is accepted as "proof" by many but I know it has mistakes, as the people are close kin. However, the author refused to change it since her source was known to her (but the information he submitted he got from me, then typed it in inaccurately). I refuse to take credit or blame for that one. What I am saying is - each person needs to take care and decide for themselves what they will and won't accept. ----Original Message Follows---- From: "William A. Wilton" <willma@sprynet.com> Reply-To: "William A. Wilton" <willma@sprynet.com> To: BARNETT-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [BARNETT] Baldwin or ??? , Rebecca who is she??? b in mid 1700's Date: Thu, 24 Jun 2004 19:11:49 -0700 Baldwin & Brannon researcher's Well researcher's. I have a dilemma; Hope you can understand my message below. I received a letter from a Frances Brown from in VA about 1 or more years ago. I am looking for her. She is a direct descendant in the Baldwin and ( as she said )Brannon family. She sent me family Group sheets of her direct line from Jehiel Baldwin who mar Bridget Goodwin in 1749 possibly ( my memory of her letter I have someplace) Ct or Mass.. They had Rebecca Baldwin b June 1750 in Milford, New Haven, Ct. She has her as wife of John Brannon b 1745 in Ireland. She also sent the descending direct line of them down to and including herself. I have believed this to be a true record of this line and family because.;;; Frances Brown's COMPLETE LINE with this Baldwin connection HAS LIVED IN THE WINCHESTER, VA (W VA) AREA FROM THE 1700'S DOWN TO HERSELF TODAY. I beleive she ought to know more so than anyone else I have contacted or seen anywhere. But I know one that don't .. I contacted one of our good Brannon Genealogy persons, Larry Brannon in Greenville, NC abt this. He said he has met and talked to her in person but never thought to ask her if this Rebecca's last name was Baldwin as that is what he already had on it. He also said that anything she told him and he got from her, he said he found to have been correct as he went to Court House in Winchester, WVa and got copies of vitals etc.. He said that her word was as good to him as a original record since her direct line was all from, and having lived in same area to and with herself. Now since a marriage record hasn't been located, I am told that Rebecca's name is not to be said it was Baldwin unless I have a original record of her marriage to John Brannon in about 1765/6?? in wherever, Pa, Ct. Mass. or ???? I have Rebecca's record as a dau of Jehiel and Bridget from the CC Baldwin BOOK of 1881. Also from other's of their children's descendants that had not known about each other with same info. Also there is genealogy recorded in a bible ( unkown where it is now) that a grandson of John and Rebecca though a son, William Brannon's line that had Rebecca's name written in as believed to have been written as Baldwin of which when last seen, part of letters were not clear as to what they were after Bal and the d win was faded out somewhat as was in pencil. The d partly showed and was determined to have been Baldwin at the time of then. My question is this; Would you or is it good reason to accept this Rebecca's last name as Baldwin with this info from Frances Brown???? and from the Bible even though this Bible has not been located and Frances Brown may still be living but I have not been able to make a contact again. Also from the Family Group Sheets written in by Frances Brown that was sent to me and other's??? If anyone out there has any info about this or knows where Frances Brown the direct descendent of John and Rebecca (Baldwin) Brannon or iws connected to either or anyone in this Brannon or Baldwin line, please contact me by my personal E MAIL below. Thank you all for any help here. I have been reprimanded for saying Rebecca's name is Baldwin as someone else thinks it was Ball or some other name. I also did my homework on any other Rebecca with name of Ball, Baldwin, Baldin, and other similar name in the time period and NOT find even ONE that would fit here so far.. in about 5 yrs. I have been told I should send a warning that Rebecca's last name here is not proven and therefore not to be taken as true as it is being spread and people have picked it up from my posting of genealogy. This is NOT TRUE. I have only told people in E mails about what I recieved from Frances Brown etc. I do not have a Gecom Genealogy in WCFT etc. I have seen others with them. I saw her name as Rebecca Baldwin before I got the info from Frances Brown and have seen more with other siblings of Rebecca's and Jeihel and Bridget Goodwin Baldwin since. To me, Frances Brown ,who I also had talked with by phone before and after she sent me the F G Sheets info is TRUTH. I will continue to check out any of the name and am determined to find any other that could fit here????? So if you see this John Brannon with wife name Rebecca BALDWIN please be ware as I am not the first person as I know myself that it was out there before I told anyone about my find. Do your homework and go through all as I did to check it out. Thanks for any info. Or Original proof of this marriage.

Hi Everyone: I sent the following message out last weekend and received a message that it may have bounced. If it is a repeat, please forgive me. MIC Hi Everyone: I worked most of the weekend on an update to the website. http://micbarnette.bravepages.com click on DNA. Added are new people and new information. Be sure to read the results page. There are other pages listing the lineages of each participant, place names and surnames associated with each participant and be sure to look at the genetic distances page. If you have someone (male) in your family named Barnett or you are a (male) Barnett now is an exciting time to get involved with the testing. The new 37 marker test is working very well. Some theories on Barnett research are being destroyed and others are being proven. Plus unknown lines are being found. If you have any questions or are interested in participating in teh project send me an email. MIC

>I think it is interesting that the John born 1792 is most lkikely a brother of my William Barnett who went to Tennessee - and is buried outside of Brush Creek, Smith Co, Tennessee. Also - my brother, who is participant #9 also matches JAck 24/25 markers - so the possibility that his John is the John I have had a hard time pinning down is very good. Also, that #12 is another relative. I LIKE the DNA project.

Jack I don't know if you know or have had contact with Participant 0012 (Kit 16597) in the Barnett Surname DNA Project but the two of you are claiming the same common ancestor, John born 1792 and dying 1861 Madison County, NC. This is where Brush Creek is according to participant 12. I first noticed this when I looked at the Associated Place Names page on the website ( http://micbarnette.bravepages.com ) . He has ancestors in the same places as you, including Brush Creek which on his notes is in Madison County, NC. Your notes just say Brush Creek with no state or county. As I compared family members I saw he had your ancestor Levi Wilburn listed as well. When I look at the Genetic Distance Chart on the website the two of you are 12/12 in the 12 marker test and 24/25 in the 25 marker test. He has not done a 37 marker test. On the 12 marker test You, Participant 12 and I all match 12/12 On the 25 marker test You and I match 24/25 (1 marker off) and He and I match 23/25 (two markers off) On the 37 marker test You and I match 36/37 (1 marker off) (You and I stay constant) and He has not taken that test. Since you and he seem to have an identified common ancestor and are off 1 step from one another it would seem likely one of you has had a marker change since 1792 otherwise I think you would both be identical. You may have to try to find another descendant of John Barnett born 1792 that comes off another child or someone descended from a sibling or older generation of that family and see what you come up with marker-wise. It is also a question you might refer to Family Tree DNA and let them look closer at the two tests. This may turn out to be an interesting case.

Does anyone have any information on Levi Wilburn Barnett born August 26, 1834 died 1910 may be buried at Brush Creek (no other information). His wife was Mary Jinkins. I know they had two children Wesley and William Zechariah. Jack Barnett

Hi Everyone: Today the 12 marker results for Particiant 0018 (Kit 20841) arrived. At this time I do not know if he has ordered a 25 or 37 marker test but he needs to do so if he already has not done so. He matches Participant 0008 (Kit 12937) 11 for 12 meaning there is a 1 step distance between them. I have been playing with census records tonight trying to see how they might relate. Participant 0008 is thought to descend from William Barnett born in Ireland and came to PA about 1736. Descendants went to Mecklenburg County NC then to Knox County, TN (before 1802) and on to Bradley County, TN by 1836 then to Collin County, Texas between 1886 and 1888. The earliest ancestor of Participant 00018 is William Barnett born about 1858 in TN. According to the 1900, 1910, 1920 census of Hunt County, TX his parents were both born in Virginia. This family moved to Texas prior to 1885. Hunt County and Collin County are next to one another. There is another major connection. Participant 0018 has a Grafton Barnett in his family born 1907 Hunt Co, TX in 1910 and 1920 Hunt Co census. Participant 0008 has a Grafton Barnett in his family born 1877 in the Bradley County, TN 1880 census Bradley County, TN. As preliminary speculation if Paticipant 0008's migration path is Ire-PA-NC-TN-TX and Participant 0018's line went from VA-TN-TX then their connection probably has to be in Ireland, PA or VA? Again, we are looking for more Barnetts to join the test group! You can join on the Family Tree DNA website at http://www.familytreedna.com Please visit our website at http://micbarnette.bravepages.com click on the DNA button. I will be updating the website this weekend. MIC

Hi Diane: Actually the mutations are normal evolution and has nothing to do with chemicals and aliens, etc. You will have to read about them on the website (both the Barnett DNA one and the Family Tree DNA one. I thik I copied on our website what was on the FTDNA website). It is expected that mutations occur at any time but are anticpated every so many generations-like 25 or more, I forgot. What is important to us in the DNA genetics field is the step mutations tell us how far or close two people are related. That is the purpose of having as many allelles/markers as possible. The more markers the closer in time the realtionships between the people can be compared. The people in group 2 matching exactly with 37 markers shows they are pretty closly related. The people in group 1 matching at 25 markers but not matching on 37 shows the realtionship is close but not real close. The website explains the distances in generations that the step mutations should be showing us. Hope this helps but doubt it will. It may be better togo to the website and read what is there. There is an explaination of genetic distances.

Or could the mutations be some weird influence from the female side - therefore you are still as closely related as you first thought? Ohhhh - I am getting confused - and sooo ready to believe any Barnett related to me is a mutant - I know my brothers and sons too well, you see!
