I recently found where Wiley Barmer married Quilla Copeland at the home of Eliza Copeland on Oct. 6, 1881. It gave his age as 25 and hers as 18, I think he fudged on his age, he was about 30. His first wife was Judy Jones. In 1900 he was listed as a widower and in 1910 he had a wife named Pattie. They had been married 11 yrs. John Jarvis Barmer was born in April, 1882 and was mentioned in Eliza's will as her grandson, in 1900 he is listed in the census as the son of Wiley Barmer.The Barmers and Copelands were listed next door to each other in 1880 census. Eliza's other daughter, Sallie An, was living with her as was a man named William Early. I am trying to find proof that Bealie Barmer(dau of Wiley) married the son of Sallie An and William Early,his name was listed as John on his son's death certificte. Bealie had a brother named Jarvis who is buried in the Rawls cemetery between Aulander and Roxobel. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
