    1. William BARNETT - Susan KENT
    2. Here is the very little I have on William & Susan. As you can see, these families kept with the tradition of the time & area and are very circular -they keep marrying & intermarrying cousins. Even name children the same so that it is often hard getting the right child with the correct parents. Fletcher BARNETT b. 1800-1810 SC (probably the Greenville area, but that is pure speculation) Fletcher was a young child when his parents - William & Kiziah WALKER BARNETT moved to Smith Co, TN. His grandfather, David BARNETT owned land in Greenville, SC which he purchased in 1800 so that is why I speculate that he was born in the Greenville area - but he might not have been, either) Fletcher married Mary "Polly" GILL. They are listed in the 1830 census for Smith Co, with 3 males under the age of 10. Mary "Polly" GILL was the daughter of John & Elizabeth "Betsy" TUGGLE GILL (Barnett's of Smith Co., TN by Albert BARNETT) One of the 3 males from the 1830 census is never named. The assumption being that he died before the 1840 census Sometime between 1830 & 1840 Fletcher disappeared. There werre a couple of nephews that had his name as a middle name but it disappeared from the family after he did and the nephews only used the initial "F" after Fletcher disappeared. Fletcher BARNETT - Mary "Polly" GILL male BARNETT b 1820-1830 TN William T. BARNETT b. @1829 TN m. 24 Oct 1850 TN - Susan A. KENT (b. @1830 TN f. Nathan KENT m. Martha GILL) Mary BARNETT George BARNETT b. 1854 m. Betty PRUITT James BARNETT Martha BARNETT m. Will BIRDWELL Jackson BARNETT James C. BARNETT b. 30 Sep 1830 TN m. 11 Nov 1850 Lucinda KILZER (b. 19 Dec 1830 d. 22 Jul 1907 Smith Co, TN f. Jordan KILZER m. Rachel) Harriet A. BARNETT 1851-1876 Mary E. BARNETT 1853-1904 Jordan F. BARNETT 1855- It is interesting that 2 of Fletcher's brothers married sisters of Mary "Polly" GILL.
