    1. Re: Sherman and Barham
    2. Hi Jean in Indy, I know this is not the answer to your question, but sometimes other information leads one to the final goal. I have a "Phoebe" Barham that might be the "Pheby" for whom you are attempting to find the death record. Phoebe has also been listed as Rhoda. My (or our) Phoebe b. ca 1836 was (according to my information) the youngest daughter of James Freeman Barham (1792-1865) and Margarette (Peggy) Holbrook b. ca 1791. They both came from NC and were listed with their children in the Greene Co, MO 1850 census although the name was misspelled as "Barrum. James Freeman Barham was son of James Barham and Prudence Freeman, b. 1792, Guilford Co, NC., d. Jan. 8, 1865, Greene Co, MO. I am also searching for a connection between this Barham line and an Elizabeth Barham (ca 1820 - 1861). I do not know who her parents were. She was born in TN and died in Marion Co, AR. She married Rial Barnett (1818 - 1891) ca 1845 at Greasy Creek, Dallas Co, MO. One of their sons was, William Monroe Cawdra (Billie) Barnett (1851 - 1928) who started the "Old Time Singing" at the church at Red Top, Dallas Co, MO that still takes place today......so I'm told. Hope this helps and please let me know if you can connect to Elizabeth Barham. Jerry
