Looking for ancestors, information on William Barnett b. March 20, 1825. I do not know where. His mother's maiden name may possibly have been Ballew. He married Elizabeth Caroline Allen possibly on March 28, 1847 in Gallatin, Illinois. There is a record of an EC Allen marring a William Barnett on that date but do not know if this is the same couple. I have names of three children, there may have been more, Mollie, Rhoda, and James Zacharia. James Zacharia is my line. Do not know where the children were born, but James Zacharia married Lourella (Lilly) Tiora Gibson February 1, 1883 probably in McLeansboro, Illinois, or at least in Illinois because their first child was born in McLeansboro, Illinois. James' and Lilly's children are Eben Elben, Bertha E., William Wilson, and Charley Washington. I have more information on some of these lines, and can trace from William Barnett to myself. If you think you see a connection, please contact me, and you might want to visit my web site also.
