I believe that my line descends from William Barnett and Mary Spratt through a son William Barnett who married Mary Heaslett. (I know that I descend from William and Mary Heaslett) I have information that tells me William Barnett was first married to Mary Spratt, she died and he married a Margaret. Sometime ago someone sent out Will for several Barnetts and I printed out most of them. However, I missed the one on William where he supposedly mentions his wife Margaret and children from both wives his property. Does anyone have and actual copy of that Will that they would be able to send to me? I would even be delighted to receive a typed copy. I would just like to read it. I would be happy to pay for postage and for cost of copies. I have been able to provide all documents necessary to get into DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution on the William Barnett and Mary Heaslett line. I would just like to take this family back another generation. For two generations in my family I have only women in my direct line, it is my understanding that it would not work for DNA testing. I believe that the 0008 DNA will connect to William and Mary Heaslett. I have documents that shows me that much. Any help would be appreciated. Wanda Ellis wellis@redriverok.com

Wanda; That may have been me as I did post the imfo(Genealogiclay) of a number of wills I have from NC and SC on Barnett's. They would be in archived Barnett site messages on the Barnett Board I do believe. So if you missed them try the Barnett message board in abt the tie you have the other's copied - or +.

Hi Maxine, Could you please tell me how to find these wills you posted and about what time period you posted them as well as when they were made? I'm new to this internet archive finding things.

Wanda - You just need to find a male cousin with the Barnett last name who would be willing to do the DNA test. The Barnett DNA project is for males. I had my brother do the test. Is there anyone you can find from the same Barnett - an uncle or cousin?

I am from a Thomas Barnett b abt 1730 in Londonderry Ire. was in NC . His son Thomas Barnett mar Martha Patrick, a son William mar Rhoda Campbell. they went from York Co SC where 3 generations born with a son Robert Sylvanus Armstrong Barnett to Tn then to Mo then to Grayson Co Tx in abt and by 1852. William and wife Rhoda both died in Tx. Wm's bro , Alexander mar to Rachael Adams in York Co SC. Barnett's in Londonderry Ire had come from Scotland. before that from England . All moves because of religeous persecution. A William Barnett and Thomas Sprat went from Ire in abt 1741 ( some said abt 1730 but correct record says 1741 and one of the children was b on the trip.) to Pa. Thomas had mar a Barnett girl in Ire.. I also saw a William Barnett mar a Sprat( Mary or Ann maybe). It also said that they were connected to mine above in Ire.

According to the information that I have, there was two Sprat ladies that married Barnett brothers. Several members of my Barnett family moved to Texas and Oklahoma after the Civil War. My line came from Bradley County, Tennessee to Whitfield County, Georgia and on to Fannin County,Texas and then into Bryan County, Oklahoma. My Great Great Grandfather John Wilson Barnett is buried in Bryan County, Oklahoma. Wanda Ellis wellis@redriverok.com

I know that, but I don't have one. All of uncles an great uncles are gone. My Grandmother was an only child. Her mother had some brothers, but they are all gone and so are their mail children. Wanda Ellis wellis@redriverok.com

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!
