One of Elgie's sisters was Josie, married to Theon Bowen, had one son Bernard.  Two granddaughters-will give you that information if you don't have. Osa (spells her name with an a, not ie.)

Janice Bowen Miller If you need anything from Osa, I would give you her number. She is sharp in mind, but can't write,and difficult to see, but Rick and his wife Bethany would write for her.  From: Darla Marbut <gmarbut@centurytel.net> To: mobarry@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, December 31, 2011 12:37 PM Subject: Re: [MOBARRY] Elgie Garrett and Faye Henderson The only Elgie Faye Garrett I have in my files was the daughter of James "Jim" Wesley Garrett and his wife Lucinda Adeline "Addie" Maloney Garrett.

List Readers, A few weeks ago I did a DNA test - while they had the kits on sale. I am excited because my results came in today.  I am having a ball looking through the results. There are people listed as cousins that I have never heard of before. It will take some time to figure out all the clues. I only hope that the clues are of value and not just more of what I have and already know. With females the testing is not anything like it is for males where you can trace the male line back to who knows where - probably Adam. LOL I only hope that I can find some Simpson cousins and perhaps a few clues in the jumbled up data that will make sense to me. Have a happy and safe New Year. Donna Cooper

List Readers, here is another one of Patricia Garrett's great photo submissions. This one, like the several of the others has several photos on the page. I am intrigued by the connections that the Garrett family had to so many Eagle Rock families. I am not related to the Garrett, Burris or Cole families - but love to read about them. I am related to the Reed and Simpson families who were related to some of these folks in this group. One of these photos is of Emma Jane (Burris) (Cole) Garrett and granddaughter Mary Kathleen Garrett. As you know Emma first married John Sigel Cole and second married Isaac Newton Garrett. She was daughter of Asahel and Sarah Ann (Garner) Burris. John Sigel Cole's brother was shot and killed in Barry County. His name was Richard Thomas Cole and he was married to Mary Margaret Simpson. Was Richard buried in Munsey without a stone? Anybody have a clue? Researcher Carolyn Hess is a descendant of Mary Margaret Simpson and is trying to make as many connections to these families that she can put together. She is seeking photos of Richard's two sons and of course any you can dig up of Richard or Mary Margaret, too. She knows one of the Cole sons died young, but the other one, James A. Cole married a woman named Margaret Ann Treat and had a child named James Cole. Margaret, the wife blind or almost blind. She died when the child was a baby and so Carolyn is not sure what happened to the baby, James or to the husband, James. She thinks that they could have been living in the Benton Co., AR, area, but isn't sure. She knows that James and Margaret married in Eureka Springs - if that will ring a few bells for you. The stories Carolyn has discovered about her family connections to Barry County are addictive - and to anyone who likes to hear old time stories. I am connected to her Simpson family - as most of you already know. Here is the link to the photo - http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mobarry/photos/photo-4/garrettEmmaJaneBurris.htm Oh, my - one more thing, I was wondering about the Garrett connection to George Morris. Isaac Newton Garrett had three wives - by his wife Mary Jane McCarty he had a daughter named Mary Martha Garrett who married a man named George Morris. Somebody please tell me - did this man come from Barry County and was he related to the George Morris who was once married to Mary Margaret Simpson. I don't think these two George Morris men are the same person, but just am wondering if they are related. If any of you can shed a ray of light on any of these questions, it will be appreciated.

List Readers, In this photo, Patricia Garrett, thinks that the little girl is Elgie Garrett. She gives us a clue that she is Dad's niece, but does not state who Elgie's parents are or who Dad is. She also has one photo in this group labeled Faye Henderson and Elgie Garrett, 1920 in Eagle Rock. So - the inquisitive me wants to know who is Faye Henderson and who are Elgie's parents? Thanks Patricia. Hope yo can help with the details. Donna Cooper

List readers, I have a mail box full of photos and other things to post that came in from Patricia Garrett. I have most of her photos downloaded, watermarked, resized, renamed, and ready to post, but some of the more recent things that came in are still in my mail box. At any rate - I have more, a lot more to post of her submissions and will work on those a little bit each day until they are posted. I posted Dock Goins and Rachel Reed Goins' wedding photo, just now. I noticed after I got it on the web that the wedding date I have is different from the one Patricia Garrett, the submitter has on her photo picture. Since, I didn't look it up but thought I'd ask you which date is correct. Here is a mention of Dock in the newspaper - 1912. May 2, 1912, Thursday, Cassville Republican, Barry Co., MO: Judges of Election: Following is the list of judges, appointed by the county court for the special election to be held Saturday, June 1, 1912. Roaring River No. 1: John Elmore, A. N. Skelton, Dock Goins, George Faulkner, W. T. Ayers, F. Larcey In 1900 here is Rachel as a wife. 1900 Barry Co., MO, Federal Population Schedules, Roaring River Twp., page 6b, house #107, family #107: Goins, Dock age 27, farmer, born Oct 1872 Indiana, father and mother born in Virginia. Rachel, his wife, was born in MO, father born in IN. and mother in VA, and she was born Feb 1872. Rachel was age 18, and has had 0 children and 0 living or dead. They have been married less than a year. The Federal Census was taken 9th of June 1900. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mobarry/photos/photo-4/goinsDockRachel.htm CC: Carolyn Hess, Bob Akins, and Patricia Garrett. Thanks Patricia.

A few years ago while researching my Missouri family, I learned for the first time that my 3rd great grandfather was buried in a cemetery in Kentucky. On a driving trip East, we stopped in that town and were shown where the cemetery was. We are fortunate that is a mostly family cemetery very well cared for and very pretty. Many family members live near. I was told they have an association of sorts that contributes to the upkeep. I have since made contributions too. There was a tornado through there a few years ago and many trees and some stones were down. That clean up and repair was all taken care of by the association. There may be many other little cemeteries like this across the country, and it's an idea for others to adopt. Patricia In a message dated 12/24/2011 12:17:44 A.M.

List Readers, as the holiday season approaches, once again I reflect on what we have done as a group. I want to thank you for being loyal to Barry County and for all you do. May Santa's elves fill your stockings full and may God's rich blessings fill your heart. Merry Christmas, Donna Cooper, Coordinator
