Barber - I believe he had a brother, Oliver A. Barber who is listed on page 143 in the Huron County Ohio Chapter Inscriptionsby Huron County Chapter of OGS 1997. Is there any connection between Theodore and Oliver? Would the death certificate list his mother and father? I am still waiting for the National Archives to send me information on Theodore. Where would I send for the death certificate and how much would the charges be? Thanks Ann annieb437 @yahoo.com >> Hi Ann, In addition to the cemetery inscription information that Rebecca Williams sent you, here are a few other references: 1. Birth Index, 1867-1908, Huron County, Ohio. Oliver A. BARBER b. 06/04/1881. (Write to Probate Court, Huron County Courthouse for a copy of the birth certificate. The web site (www.rootsweb.com/~ohhuron) that Rebecca Williams gave you will give you the address and the cost.) 2. 1880 Census Index, Huron County, Ohio. Isaac BARBER, Norwich Twp, 164A. 3. History of the Fire Lands, by W.W. Williams, 1879. Page 107, Military Roster of Soldiers (Civil War). Under Co. B, 3rd OVC: Private Theodore BARBER, veteran volunteer; mustered out with company. (If this Theodore BARBER is the same as your Theodore P. BARBER, then it would seem unlikely that he would be the brother of the above Oliver A. BARBER, since Oliver was born 1881, while this Theodore BARBER was probably born, at the latest, 1848 or earlier.) The cemetery inscription information for the BARBERs that Rebecca Williams gave you suggests that Isaac and Sarah were the parents of Oliver A. BARBER. Does this match with the names of the parents you have for Theodore P. BARBER--or do you have this information yet? Regards, Ken Shute, in MD (kwsroots@aol.com).
