Hi Arlene, I was reading the Barton e-mail and saw your message to Lea. Rufus Barton was the son of Edward and Mary. He had six brothers ; Enoch, Joseph, Noah, Thomas, Marmaduke and Roger, and one sister; Elisha. All were born in England. You can find more information from Abigail Cole's research listings at < www.gendex.com/users/royc/barton/D0001/G0000018.html#15 > Rufus' decendants include my wifes ggrandmother Lucy Barton. Marmaduke's decendants include Clarisa Harlow Barton (Clara ), who started the Red Cross. Hope this helps. Regards, Ed & Ruth Smith -----Original Message----- From: V.
