Judy: I was holding my breath when I saw Bowie since I have ancestors from there, but, alas, none of them were my names. How very special of you to do this with old photos. Hope you find someone connected. Jackie A family tree can wither if nobody tends it's roots - Please visit our web site: thehouseofjossey-josey.org And my personal Josey web page MY JOSEY FAMILY

Dear List, While at a flea market in Bowie, TX, I came across some wonderful old photographs of an ASKEW family.  Some of these photos were taken by E. R. Speer, Photographer, Harrison, AR  (Boone Co.).  Others have the name "Shattuck" embossed on the lower left corner of the photo. The pictures have identifying information written on the back of them, with various dates, etc.   They are all postcard size, and if fact, have been made into post cards.  They are in  good condition.  Names included are: (1) Enos ASKEW & family:  Uncle Enos, Bert, Myrtle, Gertie, Emory & Mary.  There is also the name of Bill BARNETT, with a marriage date of April 1, 1934. Bill BARNETT is not in the photos, but his marriage to Gertie Askew is written on the back. Both Bill & Gertie, according to info written on the back, were born in 1889. (2)  Kent ASKEW, s/o Bert Askew & Myrtle Cooper Askew.  This is a toddler-age child, sitting on a chair.  He is wearing a long white christening-type gown. (3)  Bert & Mertle:  this appears to be a wedding picture. (4)  Buddy "Enos" ASKEW, portrait of this older man. If this is your family and you are interested in these pictures, please contact me privately.    I try to pick up old pictures when they are identified by a place and a name.  It is a great way to attempt to save old photos, journals, etc.   Thank you,  Judy in TX

Hi This is my first posting so please be kind. I have come to a stop with an ancester of mine his name is Richard BARNETT or barnet or barnot [he has had all three spellings] and i am hoping someone out there has come across him before his marrage to Mary Hills in 1795 at Wiggenholt near coldwaltham West Sussex. He was born in about 1766 somewhere in West Sussex England. If anyone has any info on his early life i would love to hear from you.

Looking for ANYTHING on Irma Claire Barnett, b. Feb. 14, 1908 in TN (??) d. Feb. 1977 in Torrance, Los Angeles Co., CA., married George C. Zellner in the late 1930s. Thanks in advance. Shelly Chance Galloway

Hi Tom: I suggest you try to find someone in your family still carrying the Barnett surname and entice them to participate in the Barnett Surname DNA Project. There is a good chance your SC Nathan is related to the ones from New Kent County, Virginia and Georgia. They all carry the unusual given name "Nathan". One of our participants in the DNA project has taken the test and matched perfectly with me. My ancestors were in Goochland County, VA and Spartanburg, SC. My suspicion is that my Goochland County , Virginia people were initially from New Kent County. Since New Kent County is a burned county we need to do some pretty intense researching in whatever other extraneous records we can locate to tie these groups together. The more participants from the varous branches we have participating the better we will understand how these people relate. In addition to the Virginia people who were in SC and Virginia there is at least one other totally unrelated (as proven by the DNA results) Barnett family that was in SC, Georgia, and Alabama-all not too far in distance from my people of the Goochland County branch. I am in the process of moving from Houston to Dallas and have not had much chance to work the DNA website. As soon as I get everything settled I will be updating it reflecting som enew results that have been received. In the meanwhile please g o to the website and check it out. If you know a Barnett please have them consider participating in the test group. Only a male with the surname Barnett can participate in the test. Anyone, male-female-or someone not named Barnett can sponsor a Barnett. In fact if you have a group of researchers interested in a specific Barnett ancestor you could all chip in (financially) and sponsor someone named Barnett who descends from your common Barnett ancestor. You wold all benefit from that person taking the test and learning the results. I sponsored my cousin who is a Finch, my grandmother's maiden name.

Dear Mic No. Alas, I am not descended from Barnetts in SC. Sorry if this was not clear in my earlier note. I am descended from Barnetts primarily in central England who, because some were British naval officers active in the Caribbean region in the decades preceding 1780, may have connections with the Barnetts who were among the early SC families. I have no evidence for that, however. Just circumstantially based speculation. 'My' SC families from the early years are primarily Brisbane, Lowndes and Stanyarne. More distantly Hall, Mat(t)hew(e)s, Gibbes. If any SC Barnett reading this is aware of Barnett connections to 'my' early SC families, naturally I'd love to know more. I wish you and any other concerned family members the necessary combination of calm, wisdom, patience, efficiency and tolerance necessary to maximise the likelihood that the house move will go well, and you won't run out of accessible coffee. And I wish you success in the new job.

Hi Charles: I visited your nicely done website. I am impressed! I am the Administrator for the Barnett Surname DNA Project. I would like to invite any of the living Barnetts related to those on your website (or anywhere else) to participate in our project. It would great to make connections of Barnetts in America and Barnetts in the British Isles. Currently we have 8 participants. The results from 7 have been returned and we are waiting on the eighth. All of our members are from the US except one who lives in Austrailia. The ancestor of the Barnett living in Austrailia was from Ireland in the early ninteenth Century before immigrating to Canada, then Austrailia. His DNA results did not match any of the others. Three participants have Colonial Virginia ancestry. In my own case, my earliest known ancestor was born about 1689, presumably in Virgina. The remaining two participants have common ancestry living in the Southern United States after the American Revolution. It is unknown at this time but possible they may have come South from Pennsylvania shortly prior to the Revolution. I have been moving from Houston to Dallas over the past several weeks and have two results to place on our website. I hope to get a breather in the next couple weeks and update the website with results and lineages. You are invited to visit our website at http://micbarnette.bravepages.com click on the DNA link. Most of your questions about the project, DNA testing, etc should be answered on the website. If you have further questions, please contact me or Family Tree DNA, our testing company's website at http://www.familytreedna.com .

I have just been updating my cousin's webpage on the Barnetts of Glympton in Oxfordshire, England. The first relatively confidently recorded (by me) patriarch was Lt Benjamin Barnett 1669 - 1703 who perished off the east Kent coast as a result of the hurricane of 1703. The web page is at http://www.kittybrewster.com/ancestry/barnett.htm Most (known to me) branches of this family remained in England, with particular concentrations in and near Bedfordshire, Oxfordshire and Northumberland. But there is also stateside interest albeit only (unless you know differently) of relatively recent vintage. If anyone has time to take a look at the webpage and notices anything I got wrong or left out, thank you and yes please. Sincerely Charles Hillman http://www.hillmanc.fsnet.co.uk/index.htm

Maxine, Have you or anyone come across the PYRON family in connection to the BARNETT family in NC, SC or GA?
