Jon: i am interested in your message since my wife is descended from a Lavina Barnes (b abt 1798 NC - d 1877 IL, Jasper Co.). She married a George Grove and lived in Brown County, In from the 1820's until about 1850 when they moved to Illinois. George founded Georgetown (now Bean Blossom) and ran a grist mill there. While in Indiana they had some association with a Jesse Barnes. George nearly beat him to death in some type of family argument. George was born in PA and was in central Indiana by 1820. Do you have any information on a Lavina Barnes? David Jon <genresearch62@gmail.com> wrote: Walt, The William Barnes that I am researching was born in PA on Jun 27, 1795. Married in PA. 1st 2 children born in PA, next 8 in OH, and last 2 in IN. Most of the Barnes in Barnesville and Belmont Co. are of the James Barnes line which my William Barnes is another line of Barnes. Wm Barnes 3rd child is also named William Barnes and was born abt 1837 in OH, A grandson, also named William Barnes was born abt 1870 in IN. The time frame for my William Barnes in OH is abt 1836 to 1860, because he was listed in the 1860 census for Brown Co. IN. I have looked at the James Barnes line and can not find any connection between the two. Sorry I can't help more. Jon, On 8/15/07, WALT ALICE DE*WAELE wrote: > > I have a William R.
