Surnames: Barnett Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/pAB.2ACI/5058 Message Board Post: Seeking information on William Ryle Barnett born about 1848 and died probably between 1889-1900. His first wife was Pernicia Jane Rider but he deserted her and his children. He married(?) and fathered at least one more child. Story is that he died in a grocery store fire or some other violent death. Also where is Barnett Cemetery in Floyd Co? Any information will be appreciated.
