Thank you, Dina. I appreciate this info. Wonder who John J. Barrett was the son of? Bob

Sadly, I don't know who John Joseph was the son of - I've got his info from his gravestone and his WWI draft card (he registered in Neshoba Co., MS). Some day when I've got some time (ha! We're in the middle of a move - time is a foreign concept at the moment!) I need to hit the census and see if I can't find either either he or his wife. Hopefully someday I can get this figured out. I have this compulsive habit - I should confess to - of "collecting" Barretts that I suspect may tie in to our group one way or the other. This John Joseph falls into that category - I think he ties in somewhere, just not sure, so I added him into my database as an unrelated individual. I love that function! I'll keep my eyes open for your bunch, tho, too, okay? Blessings, dina
