I think you will find the Barnetts of Montgomery AL were in Colonial Georgia (just before the Revolution) particularly along the Broad River. Prior to Georgia these people were in Virginia. Marks-Barnett and Kin by Pettigrew is a good book to research these families. It is often found in genealogical libraries particularly the 1972-ish edition. The Barnetts of Perry Co, AL initially came from Spartanburg District, SC. Prior to that they were in Virginia. The Barnett book by Janice Barnett Craft is a good book for this family. There were few copies of this book published. Both books mentioned above are out of print. From our Barnett Surname DNA Project it is appearing that these two Barnett families are related way back in Colonial Virginia. We will have a better feel for that after a few more Barnett participant's take the test and the results for some pending tests are returned.

Marsha do you know if James had brothers I am looking for my ggggrandfather Berry W. Barnett born in 1813 in S.C. If you do please send it to me I was thinking possibbilty they could have brothers. Also do you know who James father was? Carrolyn Stephenson

I found 4 Barnetts who bought land in section 14N, 20E of Montgomery Co., AL. They were Charles, William, Francis and Joel. Does anyone know which Barnetts they were? There was also another Barnett in Montgomery Co., Thomas M. Barnett, who bought land about the same time, but not close to the other Barnetts above. All this occured from 1828 -1835. I am looking for spouses and offspring of these individuals, in hopes that I will find my Barnett's who were in Perry Co., AL by 1835. Some of the names in my Barnett family were William, Steven, Thomas, Frances and Levi. Thanks for reading, Melissa

I am searching for information on Gehoida (or Jehoida) Barnett, born about 1804, South Carolina. I recently saw a request for information on this man on this website. I noticed subscriber Donna Johnson is apparently searching for Gehoida, too. He was my Great Great Grandfather. Maybe we can fill in some blanks for each other. I have been researching this man and his decendents for about 5 years. I would love to compare notes.

On November 23, 1884 Isabelle (aka Belle) Earl married ? Barnett. I can provide information and pictures of Isabelle and her ancestors. I am descended from Isabelle's sister Julia Ann Earl. I am looking for additional information about the Earls. In particular, there is a story in my family that somewhere around the start of the nineteenth century, the Earls inherited money from a distant relative in the British Isles, and that Isabelle might have gotten some ancestral papers along with the monetary inheritance. Can anyone provide me with any information on that inheritance?

sorry to burst that bubble of optimism however there are no lving male barnett's of my mum's family in Australia. If you asked 20 odd years ago it would have been alright. My grandfather's wife passed away recently aged 91 but she couldn't recall many facts that could help us with our search. Only my grandmother and grandfather came to Australia in 1964 and the rest of his family stayed in England. If his brothers and sisters are alive and I doubt it very much as they would be 100+, i still don't know much about them but if you want any info just let me know and I send what I know about them.

My great-grandmother was Dollie Barnett, probably born Evadna, married John Judson Stamps. She was born about 1847, and lived in Louisville, Jefferson Co., Kentucky, I believe. She died in 1928. Her parents listed on her death certificate are William Barnett and Virginia Day. Either or both were thought to have been born in Virginia. It is not clear whether they lived in Virginia or Kentucky. I believe Dollie had a few sisters. One, who is either a sister or first cousin, was Rebecca Barnett who married John H. Napier, and lived in Louisville. Do any of these names ring a bell with anyone?

Hi everyone, Wanda sorry I have not gotten back to you before now. My "time" is limited for doing anything extra like geneology since I have a 3 year old and 5 year old. I have traced my line DNA Group 8 to Tennessee, where I found on the census rolls a listing of my Barnett family with Mary Heaslett being listed as living with them. Her age was in the 80's?? and she was listed as having been from North Carolina. I have to dig out my old records and look for the notes that I took some 6 0r 7 years ago, but that's what I remember. I have not been able to confirm anything else before that. AND it gets more confusing because the DNA research suggesting there are ties to South Carolina, not Pennsylvania. I have not had time to do ANY research since the DNA came in... Basically, my line is from NC, to Bradley County, TN, to Anna, Collin County Texas. My family has lived in East Texas and Central Texas ever since!
