Would love to exchange information on family of Adam Barr and wife Elizabeth of Muskingum County, Ohio. Searching for Elizabeth's maiden name. Some have said it was Sneibele (which is not correct). Could her maiden name be Zeigler?

Kathy: I have looked at my Barr's who came to Ohio from PA in 1798-1800. They lived in the Circleville, Pickaway Co. OH area and were step children of the John Boggs/Mary Williamson Barr family. (Both John and Mary lost their first spouses to Indian attacks in PA area. John Barr married Jane Boggs (children who were raised together but came from the first families) had a son James Barr born 4 Jan 1813 in Pickaway Co. OH and died 10 Nov 1876 place unknown. He married a Elizabeth Jane Shaw born Richmond, Wayne Co. IN. This may be a lead or reduce the names you are looking at from the old census. Let me know what you think. Regards, William L.

Joyce: I am a Barr descendent from John Barr of OHIO and before that PA. I do not think we are directly related but may be back in Ireland. I do not have the Ireland connection but the original American settler was Thomas Barr and Janet Hutchison of W. Conococheague Creek, Peters Twp. Franklin Co.PA. Thomas was on a 1751 tax list and died around 1799. Wife was killed during an Indian raid on the cabin 29 Feb 1756 and a historical sign is on the property. But I am also wondering if you are the Joyce Kiser of Atlanta, GA and wife of Cleve Kiser.

William Barr (my GGGrandfather) was born in June of 1843 in OH according to census records, family, and death records. He is listed as serving in the military on the census. I've found what I believe to be his Civil War Records and his parents and other family of Fairfield Co., OH but here is the mystery. One of the family records at the Fairfield Co. Genealogical Society state that William Barr (husband of 1st Sarah Hazlett (dau. of ,later Martha Cahill, and I believe lastly Emma O'Harra (Harris)) supposedly (according to another family history file) died in Berrien Co., MI Oct. 28th, 1871 where he had fathered two children with wife Martha Cahill Barr, i.e., George and Nora. William and wife Martha (Cahill) were enumerated in the Berrien Co., MI census in 1870. He is not in the Berrien Co., MI census again in 1880 but Martha is listed and remarried to a Deeter, dau. Nora supposedly deceased, and George going by the name of Deeter??? I believe I've found William back in Franklin Co., OH in the 1880 census with another wife. Anyway, I have a marriage certificate for a Wm. Barr in 1878 where he married Emma Harris a 19 yr. old girl and they had a 5 year old girl living with them named Ola in that 1880 Franklin Co., OH census. This William Barr (My GGGrandfather) gives his middle initial as C. and claims to have been born in Fairfield Co., OH on the exact date and in the same township as the Wm. C. Barr that supposedly died in Berrien. My GGGrandfather Wm. practiced the occupation of "teamster" just as the Wm. that married Sarah and Martha did and as he learned and served as in the Civil War records. I can't seem to find a death certificate or grave site for Wm. in Berrien Co. and would certainly like to prove or disprove that he died there. The individual presenting the "death" info provided no source material that I could check and I've been hunting for this for 18 yrs. without luck. I believe my GGGrandfather was the same Wm. that Martha claimed died. I can't understand how/why this would happen but realize there could be a whole lot of different reasons. My Grandfather went on to father many more children and remain married to Emma until 1930 when he died at the age of 87 yrs. of age. If anyone has any information on the death of a Wm. Barr that died in Berrien Co., MI or this family, please let me know. Exasperated.

I'll have to ck but I think it's through William Hamilton Barr.....
