I do not have any information on your Barton line that I know of except that my Grandfathers name was Elmer Elsworth Barton born in Cornwall New York 23 march 1863. This is not the only use of Elsworth or Ellsworth as a middle name that I have come across, but to date no one has known the family orgin for Elsworth. I would appreciate any insight you might have.

I may be able to speculate upon who the Thomas BARTON may have been but have only hunch rather than evidence to put forward rather than documentation. THIS Thomas may have been the grandson of Thomas BARTON, Planter of Baltimore County, MD. I base this upon the appearance of a fellow named Archibald ROLLO in the area of Fauquier County in the middle of the 18th century. This Archibald ROLLO (a somewhat rare name) looks like he is likely to be related to the one in Baltimore County. Temperence ROLLO the daughter of the Baltimore County Archibald, married James BARTON, the Son of Thomas & Abigail/ale BARTON of the same county, in 1730. The grandson's birth is recorded in Baltimore County as May 6, 1737 and he is believed, by me, to be the Thomas BARTON who is mentioned in Thomas CRABTREE's will, in Orange County, NC. (This Thomas would have been Thomas CRABTREE's brother-in-law through his sister, Elizabeth BARTON.) This entire branch is lost and may be the one which appears in what I call central Virginia - that part above Orange County, NC. The given names seem to match but these were all common as dirt. There may be a connection (still undiscovered) that ties the Stafford & Baltimore County clans together. They both had known representatives that went to Orange County. Also, part of the family of Lewis BARTON (Baltimore County) went to Caswell County (then it was part of Orange County) NC as well. Some fine mess, hunh! Someone out there holds a key to unlocking these family mysteries. Would that person please step forward. NOW! At least SOON! Rob Barton "Sue B.

I have been away from genealogy for a few months but with Dorothy's suggestion that we all post again here goes: I am searching for the parents of David Barton who married Elizabeth F. McCormack (dau of Macajah and Fannie McCormack) in Bedford County, VA on Dec. 22, 1792. Consent on marriage was given by Thomas and Sarah Barton. David Barton died in Bedford Co. July 13, 1858. His death records states he was 90 years old at the time of death making him born approx. 1768. It also says he was born in Prince William County, Virginia. The informant was his son William. I cannot connect this David Barton to any of the known Thomas and Sarah Bartons of Prince William and Fauquier Counties but he had to have come from this family of Bartons who were in Maryland and then into Westmoreland, Northumberland, Strafford, Fauquier and Prince William Counties in VA. If he was born in 1768 and married in 1792, he would have been 24 at the time of his marriage and why was it necessary for him to have the consent of his parents. Or was this just a way of noting surety and not really consent? David had 9 children born in Bedford Co. Has anyone run across any Thomas and Sarah Barton other than the ones so often discussed? Any help would be appreciated. Sue Oden Williamson County, TN

I am just looking for any information regarding my ancesters (and a missing cousin). The earliest ancester that I am currently aware of is Neil Francis Barton, my grandfather, who I believe was the son of Neil Barton and Georgia Fish, who were married, or lived in Niagara Falls, NY. I am just beginning to look for any information on them. The cousin I am looking for was born Donna Marie Barton, and my last know location for her was in California (no specific address). Her father (my uncle) was Ronald Barton and her mother was Jenny (Jennifer?). Donna would probably be in her 40s now and my guess is that she is married or something. I have not seen her in at least 40 years, and honestlly have very vague memories of her. Her father and his wife (not Jenny) committed suicide in the 1960s and I have no idea where she is, but would like to contact her. Any help on either Neil Francis Barton and ancestors or locating Donna Marie would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Cousins, Since this list is all about mothers and how special they are to us, I thought you would all like to know what I found out. This Mother's day will be just about five months since my own mother departed this life, and it will be more than difficult. Hope you find something in this for your own mother and for all the women of the world...sisters, aunts, cousins, and all the women for whom we hold a special place in our heart. Best wishes, Ron English, Killeen,TX The Origins Of Mother's Day Evoke Its True Meaning "My mother told me stories all the time... And in all of those stories she told me who I was, who I was supposed to be, whom I came from, and who would follow me... That's what she said and what she showed me in the things she did and the way she lives." - Paula Gunn Allen, in The Sacred Hoop Back to Mother's Day Card Mother's Day is celebrated by some as an obligatory observance, or derided as being too commercial. nonetheless, many people are grateful for a chance to express to their mothers -- and other women as well -- warm feelings and genuine appreciation. And, as often as people are ambiguous in their attitudes toward Mother's Day, they also are uncertain about its origins. Given the following possibilities, how many of us could pick the right answer? Mother's Day began: In 1858, when Anna Jarvis, a young Appalachian homemaker, organized"Mother's Work Days" to improve the sanitation and avert deaths from disease-bearing insects and seepage of polluted water. In 1872, when Boston poet, pacifist and women's suffragist Julia Ward Howe established a special day for mothers --and for peace-- not long after the bloody Franco-Prussian War. In 1905, when Anna Jarvis died. Her daughter, also named Anna, decided to memorialize her mother's lifelong activism, and began a campaign that culminated in 1914 when Congress passed a Mother's Day resolution. The correct answer: All of the above. Each of these women and all of these events have contributed to the present occasion now celebrated on the second Sunday in May. The cause of world peace was the impetus for Julia Ward Howe's establishment, over a century ago, of a special day for mothers. Following unsuccessful efforts to pull together an international pacifist conference after the FrancoPrussian War, Howe began to think of a global appeal to women "While the war was still in progress," she wrote, she keenly felt the "cruel and unnecessary character of the contest." She believed, as any woman might, that it could have been settled without bloodshed. And, she wondered, "Why do not the mothers of mankind interfere in these matters to prevent the waste of that human life of which they alone bear and know the cost?" Howe's version of Mother's Day, which served as an occasion for advocating peace, was held successfully in Boston and elsewhere for several years, but eventually lost popularity and disappeared from public notice in the years preceding World War I. For Anna Jarvis, also known as "Mother Jarvis," community improvement by mothers was only a beginning. Throughout the Civil War she organized women's brigades, asking her workers to do all they could without regard for which side their men had chosen. And, in 1868, she took the initiative to heal the bitter rifts between her Confederate and Union neighbors. The younger Anna Jarvis was only twelve years old in 1878 when she listened to her mother teach a Sunday school lesson on mothers in the Bible. "I hope and pray that someone, sometime, will found a memorial mother's day," the senior Jarvis said. "There are many days for men, but none for mothers." Following her mother's death, Anna Jarvis embarked on a remarkable campaign. She poured out a constant stream of letters to men of prominence --President William Taft and former President Theodore Roosevelt among them-- and enlisted considerable help from Philadelphia merchant John Wannamaker. By May of 1907 a Mother's Day service had been arranged on the second Sunday in May at the West Virginia church where Mother Jarvis had taught. That same day a special service was held at the Wannamaker Auditorium in Philadelphia, which could seat no more than a third of the 15,000 people who showed up. The custom spread to churches in 45 states and in Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Mexico and Canada. The Governor of West Virginia proclaimed Mother's Day in 1912; Pennsylvania's governor in 1913 did the same. The following year saw the Congressional resolution, which was promptly signed by President Woodrow Wilson. Mother's Day has endured. It serves now, as it originally did, to recognize the contributions of women. And Mother's Day, like the job of "mothering," is varied and diverse. Perhaps that's only appropriate for a day honoring the multiple ways women find to nurture their families, and the ways in which so many have nurtured their communities, their countries, and the larger world.

In 1771 they moved to Surry County, North Carolina. They were one of the earliest families to attempt to settle at Boonesborough, since there is a record of the estate sale of David Barton in Surry County in May 1776, which would suggest that the family had gone to Kentucky in 1775 (after David's death). David Barton was killed by Indians while on an expedition to Kentucky. Legend has it he was with Daniel Boone. There is a monument erected at Boonesboro, Kentucky with David Barton's name engraved on it. The monument is dedicated as follows: DEDICATED BY THEIR DESCENDANTS TO THE SACRED MEMORY OF THE BRAVE PIONEERS WHO ENTERED THE WILDERNESS OF WHAT LATER BECAME KENTUCKY AND FORMED THE SETTLEMENT KNOWN AS BOONESBOROUGH FIRST FORTIFIED SETTLEMENT IN KENTUCKY WE HONOR THESE AMONG THE FIRST FAMILIES OF KENTUCKY. [Listed among the names is that of DAVID BARTON] ____________________________________________ Dorothy Sturgis Pruett writes that "Abstracts of deeds and other legal documents show that Daniel Boone, the David Barton family, as well as the John Thrasher family, were living on the Yadkin River at the time David Barton is said to have been killed by the Indians on an expedition with Daniel Boone. The name of David Barton is engraved on a monument located at the original Boonesborough, Kentucky site, dedicated to the builders of Boonesborough and the famous 'Wilderness Road'." Reference Note: OUR THRASHER HERITAGE compiled by Dorothy Sturgis Pruett, privately published 1986 _____________________________________ Tradition says that David and Ruth left Virginia and went to Kentucky. Ruth's children were so small--some of them--that they drove a cow along so that her children might have milk. At that time the route to Kentucky went down west of what is now Lynchburg into North Carolina, where they crossed the mountains, then through the Cumberland Gap into Kentucky." Reference Notes: ®5 & ®6 In 1765 he (Daniel Boone) went to Florida, traveling from St. Augustine to Pensacola. Two years later (1767) he made his first expedition into the wilds of Kentucky. Reference Note: ®7 Dorothy Sturgis Pruett writes: "It, no doubt, was between 1767 and 1772 that DAVID BARTON was exploring Kentucky with Daniel Boone, as the settlement of the estate of DAVID BARTON was found in Wilkes Co., N.C. showing that his brother-in-law, LAWRENCE ROSS, was appointed Administrator of the estate in 1772." He was declared dead by a Wilkes County, North Carolina court. Last Modified: July 15, 1998 Reference Note 5 Mrs. Jewel Waller Young in her compilation of Cloud Thrasher Barton, 1973.

Dear Rich, David Barton/ Ruth Oldham, is my 6 Great Uncle. I don't have anything on his children or descendents. I surmise you do. Can you give me some of his downline? Best Wishes, Ron English, Killeen,TX

I am looking for anyone on the list whose line passes through or settles in Calvert, Texas in Robertson County, formerly part of Milam County, Texas. Of particular interest are Bartons from the line of Conway Oldham Barton son of Thomas Barton and Sarah Keyes (of the David Barton-Ruth Oldham line) who died in Elmore County, Alabama. I am trying to find information on when Conway arrived in Texas and how much land the Barton Plantation along the Brazos River outside Calvert covered. Today there is a large farm south of Calvert at a location marked as Barton, Texas on my Texas Atlas. No town no cross streets, just a dead end on a farm. This is Southwest of Calvert, yet the marker on the Barton Homestead in Calvert indicates that it was built in 1903 after the Plantation House North of Calvert burned to the ground sometime after 1900. Does anyone have more information readily available? Rich Reed Researching Primarily Lines of Reed, Roper, Barton, Hoefflin, Luckie, Owen, Patterson, and Coker.

Will desc of either JOHN & ABIGAIL DANA BARTON AND JOHN & PERSIS EDDY BARTON of Oxford MA and also Providence, RI please check in with me soon. Dorothy muirhead@inetnebr.com

Its sealed ready to mail. The Southern Branch of the Bartons, used to publish Barton Banner but I have not heard about it for years. I am beginning to see who the northern Bartons were that went south. I have studied Bartons in RI & MA for so long, and I am so close to finished my Barton line I can taste it. I put a query in Yankee and its is the best place to get responses from, I have ever found. Well I got an letter which said "this is our familyt" Mar 18th I wait and waited and waited, writing letters all of the time when they finally wrote saying she had pneumonia and had been in the hospital 14 days., I expressed my sympathy but I am still waiting and waiting. o All I need is the name of the father and I hope to connect it right away to the R.I. Bartons. I found everybody in Chicago, just like the papers my father left me said., I can hardly wait. ---------- > Hi Dorothy...... > Been there and done that....many, many times........ > I was tempted to "unsubscribe" from the Barton page last week, but > decided to hang in there for > awhile......good thing I did......wouldn't have seen your msg. > Be sure to let me know how much I owe you for those copies.
