In 1800 he is listed >in Greene Co., PA (formed from Wash. Co). He has 2 males 26-45 yrs and 1 45 >yrs & up. I female 16-26, 2 females 26-45 and 2 females 45 and up. The 1810 >census has his widow Eleanor Barnet with 1 male 10-16 yrs, 2 males 16-26. >Females 2 16-26 and 1 45 yrs and up. Ezekiel died before 24 Aug 1801 (Greene >Co.,PA court record) and Eleanor died before 22 Aug 1812. I descend through >their son, John Barnett born ca 1791/1792. Found on Greene Co PA , Richhill >Twp. census page 295. Various court records names their children. > >Ezekiel Barnett married Eleanor Kilgore. She is named in her mother's will >in Cecil Co., MD. Also named was a sister, Jane Barnett, which would >indicate two sisters married two brothers. In the book of History of York >Co., PA it states "those arriving before 1770 (but not on "prior to 1759 >list) EZEKIEL BARNETT and MATTHEW KILGORE. This was a list of persons >crossing over from Lancaster Co., PA. A family history, written about 1923 >for a Barnett reunion, claims Eleanor was a Kilgore. Ezekiel and Matthew are >found on tax list in York Co., PA. Ezekiel moved on to Washington/Greene >Co., PA and Matthew Kilgore stayed behind, later gives his share of the >land/plantation in Cecil Co., MD to his brother James.
