    1. CHRISTOPHER BARR
    2. Ruth Tysor
    3. Christopher Barr was my 3rd gr. grandfather. All I know about him is he married Barbara Toby in Washington Co. MD on 13 Apr 1809. A son, John was born a year later. There was a big lawsuit between Barbara's brother, Michael Toby and all her sisters and their husbands regarding Hills and Dales Vineyards in 1810 and didn't finish up till 1816. I ordered the CD but the whole 109 pages was about Barbara's family and I didn't learn a single thing about Christopher Barr. Family lore states they came from England. The son John married a Mary Buck Apr 4 1838 in Ohio and started their family in Ohio then moved on to Indiana and Iowa. I have not been able to find where Christopher died. He did not get to Iowa with his wife and John's family in 1854. Can any one give me an idea where to search for Christopher's parents. Or even siblings. I'm at a standstill here and don't know where to turn. Thanks for any suggestions. Ruth Tysor SW Iowa
