William -- I have some BARNES and some ROSE in Newfoundland, and more of them in Nova Scotia, PEI and back in the UK. But let's look at just the Newfoundland ones right now. Both of them married into the same ANTLE family (the main family I am working on in Newfoundland) so it's very likely they were all acquainted with each other. Here goes: John ANTLE (1802-1850) m. 1824 in Brigus to Patience NOEL (1803-1868) Kids Mary Emma Elizabeth Ellen Patience Anne m. 23 Dec 1858 in Brigus to Samuel ROSE William James m. 27 Jan 1857 in Brigus to Elizabeth CURTIS John Isaac Stephen m. 28 Jun 1865 in St John's to Lydia CHALKER Victoria Susannah m. 7 Dec 1865 in Brigus to John BARNES Caroline Munden If you find any connections, or run into any more ANTLES, in your search I'd love to hear from you.

I am new to the list and was hoping that I could get some information regarding my family tree. I have been researching the surname of BARNES and have hit a brick wall for so long now that I am getting discouraged. The biggest obstacle is the lack of closeness in the family unit. My parents were not married when I was born and my father never adopted me after they were married so my surname is ROSE and not BARNES. This I found out only after my father had passed away and I was grown. Needless to say, the only info I have is from my Aunt and it is not much, but here it goes. <SNIP> Unfortunately, this all I have to go on and I don't even know if the dates are correct. If anyone out there can help me out in anyway at all, it would be greatly appreciated. Any help at all will be appreciated. A million thanks in advance. William Rose
