Eileen did not have a sister Barbara (or any other relatives by that name). However my great grandfather Oliver did have a brother Frank, I believe, so perhaps if Barbara were another cousin that could explain the apparent discrepancy. Or Barbara could be a child of Oliver by another wife (thus Eileen's half sister). However my grandmother Eileen never mentioned the existence of such a person. I did get more info on this family from my mother which then enabled me to get a bit further with census records to flesh things out a bit. What I currently know is this: Oliver R Horton was probably born sep 1893. I've found what is likely him in the 1900 census, however I can't read the names of his parents. From my mother I know he had a sister Agnes who married a Davis, as well as a brother Steve. The census shows siblings Frank born 1885, Jessie born 1886, Agnes born 1890. Steve is not listed, I presume he was born after 1900 if this is the right family; my mother confirms Steve was younger. Agnes married Stanley Davis and had 2 kids: Letitia born 1917 and Gordon ("Buzzy") born 1922. Buzzy married Irene and had 2 kids Wayne and Bobby Davis. Agnes is the only sibling of Oliver's I have any info about besides approximate date of birth. I'd love to share info with you and would be happy to exchange info in gedcom format, as well as other info.
