Hi. Seems to be a lot of activity on this list right now so I thought I would take time to post my line again. Have been at a dead end for the last six years with this line. However, have some new more recent info to add. Samuel Barnett, b. abt. 1830, d. 1862 in Vermillion Co., IN, m. Elizabeth Tennis, b. abt. 1835, d. after 1859 and before 1862 either in OH or IN. Samuel and Elizabeth had five children: 1. Mary E. "Molly" Barnett, b. Jan. 1854 in OH, d. between 1925 and 1930 in Nevins Township, Vigo Co., IN, m. to Jeremiah Nevins on Sept. 5, 1872 in Vigo Co., IN. Jeremiah and Mary had 10 children: - George, b. 1874 - Cloval, b. 1880 - Elizabeth, b. 1883 - Lulu, b. 1885 - Grover, b. 1887 - Jesse and John (twins) b. 1889 - Cora, b. 1891 - Lillie, b. 1892 - Cecil, b. 1897 2. William Barnett, b. 1856 in IN, d. aft. 1925 in Montgomery Co., IN or Vigo Co., IN William was never married. 3. Sarah Louisa "Lou" Barnett, b. Feb. 1857, d. aft. 1925 in Vigo Co., IN, m. Perry Miller on May 3, 1886 in Vigo Co., IN 4. Margaret (not sure if this is correct first name) Barnett, b. bef. 1859, m. Benjamin Barnett in Vigo Co., IN 5. George W. Barnett, b. March 7, 1859 in Vermillion Co., IN, d. Sept. 4, 1925 in Montgomery Co., IN, m. Dec. 18. 1888 to Susanna Peterson. They had six children: - Solomon Ray, b. 1884 - James, b. 1887 - Samuel, b. 1889 - Annette Ruth, b. 1891 - Cecelia Jane, b. 1894 - Margaret, b. 1897 All we know of Samuel and Elizabeth is that in 1862 Samuel died leaving the five chidren alone. So therefore, we are only assuming that Elizabeth had previously died. The five children were each left with a different person to raise. This bit of into comes from George who told his daughter who was my grandmother. George located his four siblings later in life before he died. This is who I have found so far: WILLIAM BARNETT: Elizabeth Tennis was the daughter of Unknown Tennis and Mary Unknown. Mary Tennis was living in Vermillion Co., IN in 1870, 1880, and 1900. In 1870 and 1880 she was raising William Barnett, who was her grandson. In 1990 she was living with her daughter, Emma Bledsoe and her husband John. In 1910 and 1920 William was living with his sister Molly Nevins in Vigo Co. SARAH LOUISA BARNETT: In 1870 she was living in Vermillion Co., in the home of Henry and Margaret Rhyan. GEORGE W. BARNETT: In 1870 and 1880 he was living in Montgomery Co., IN with Hugh and Atlanta Dain Campbell. Have not found who raised Margaret or Mary E. Any info out there greatly appreciated. Linda
