Wow Mari--you're BARFIELDs in Jefferson area way pre-date my WALLERs best I can find. My ancestors apparently arrived in that area only about 1829-30, from Mecklenburg County, Virginia. That is kinda odd that someone from Rutherford Co and someone from Williamson Co. TN would meet and marry in Mississippi...maybe they travelled together from TN to MS--I think that's what happened to some of my WALLER kin who married into the McDOWELL line from VA, but did so when they arrived in Rutherford Co. I'll certainly keep an eye out for your BARFIELDs though.

Williams Barfield also came from Mecklenburg County but it was S.C. Yes, I agree with you..It was very odd that they were there...well...maybe not though. Miles Barfield, Williams' Dad lived there. Williams was a tobacco broker and went back and forth between here and there. Also, Stephen Barfield, who was in Williamson County at that point , was prolly related to Williams although I can't verify it. He made Williams an heir...confusing...in 1796....in Montgomery County! WHEW! I think he did it on purpose so I wouldn't find him!!!!! :) Yep, I have a deed that dates 1803. Mari >Wow Mari--you're BARFIELDs in Jefferson area way pre-date my WALLERs best >I can find.
