Max died April 1982 at 73 years of age. Hi Leo, I have been monitoring the notes on this line. I have been tying to prove or disprove a connection to (Nathan5, Joshua4, Samuel3, Matthew2, Edward1) The earliest BARTON I can document is Thadeus F. Barton b. 27 Nov 1811 (from gs) in possibly MA and died 5 Aug 1895 in Corry, Erie Co., PA (from gs & obit) >From son David Barton's marriage certificate & Death certificate he married (1) Susan FAIRFIELD [b. 2 Oct 1811, d. 4 Sep 1843 on gs] and from census records (2) Jane ___ & (3) Melissa ___. He is listed in 23 Aug 1850 US census Little Valley, Cattaraugus Co., NY, dwelling #173, family #173 Barton, Thaddeus, ae 37 Occupation Mechanic Barton, Jane ae 28 Tamn, ae 16, b. NY Maryett, ae 14, b. NY David, ae 10, b. NY There is circumstantial evidence that he is the same Thadeus Barton son of David that Paul Barton has listed on his web site http://nh.ultranet.com/~pwbarton/barton/i0002646.htm#i7819 David6 Barton (Nathan5, Joshua4, Samuel3, Matthew2, Edward1) Do you have any information on the family of David? As my Thadeus Barton seems to have married a Susan Fairfield and is the son of David & Susan Fairfield, 2 generations would have married a Susan Fairfield. This seems extremely suspicious. I have not been able to identify parents for Susan the wife of Thadeus. However, Susan Fairfield, the wife of David, is the daughter of Thadeus Fairfield & Kezia Lee. If you or anyone in the Barton discussion group can shed any light on this family, I would greatly appreciate it. Sue
