My g-grandfather was William Barr, and his 3rd wife was Jane Paul. He was the only child of Robert and Agnes Galbraith Barr who was born in Canada, all the rest of his siblings were born in Scotland. One of his sisters was Isabella, who married a cousin, Robert Barr, then John Paul. William moved from Lanark County, Ontario in 1900 to Oak River, Manitoba and then moved (about 1907) to Edmonton, Alberta where he died in 1909. We have many similarities, but my William Barr never lived in the U.S. Gerry Perry Henderson, Nevada ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, September 28, 2005 7:16 AM Subject: [BARR] My line of Barr's > Anyone know anything about my line of Barr's?
