    1. Re: [ROOTS-L] Warfield Barnes and Laura Bullock
    2. ANSWER TO BELOW: Jan, Try Find a Grave again. You will find Warfield Barnes 1853-1923 buried in Elam United Methodist Cemetery in Glen Mills, Delaware County, Pennsylvania. Click on the Cemetery and ask for any Barnes. His wife Laura did not come up but there is a listing for an Emma G. "Barnes" Eachus 1880-1962. Probably the daughter. I also tried for first name only of Laura but no one looked promising. You might see if the cemetery can help you with Laura (not everyone is listed on find a grave). Perhaps she is buried there also. Just a thought. Hope this helps a little, Gretchen ORIGINAL QUESTION: From: Jan Bullock <jan@bullocks.org> Subject: [ROOTS-L] Warfield Barnes and Laura Bullock To: roots@rootsweb.com Need some help! Someone contacted me off my website, and this is not my family, but I do try to help. And you'd figure with a name like Warfield Barnes you'd be able to find just oodles of references. Warfield Barnes born CA 1854 Penn. Laura Bullock born CA 1851, both dates by census records. There's a Laura Bullock on the 1870 Delaware census, shown keeping house with Chockley Bullock, age 50 (maybe father). On the 1880 census those two are gone but Warfield Barnes and Laura T. Barnes are in Christiana Hundred with dau Emma. Jump to the 1900 census and Warfield is married to someone else. I'd say that probably Laura Barnes died between 1880-1900, but no record of a death (ancestry) The 1900 census does not show any children for Warfield, and since there is only one child listed that has to be this person's line. I've checked findagrave, ancestry, familysearch, mocavo and Delaware Genweb,all with either no records or very little. The one interesting thing is on the 1880 Laura is listed as being born in Penn, not Delaware. and on the 1870 census where Laura is listed she's born in Delaware. And the two public trees listed on ancestry are the person working this line and another researcher, and nobody has much on these two people. Just at a loss, I know that there are tons of records for Delaware early, where are the late ones? Hopefully someone can steer me in the right direction. Thanks! -- jan www.bullocks.org
