Posted on: Falls County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Falls/629 Surname: Barker ------------------------- Pat -- I am also interested in any BARKERs in Falls County. I just responded to a message posted by Ann about Barkers in Falls and Milam Counties with the following message: My grandmother was Mattie Lee Barker, born in Rosebud, Texas May 30, 1894. Her parents were Charles Henry Barker, born about 1865, and Lucy Whitehurst, born about 1874. Their children, aside from my grandmother, were Jessie (May 1892); Sister (April 1893); Pete (August 1895); Dan (June 1897); and Sally (December 1899). I know the family lived in Milam County for some period of time but don't know dates. My grandmother moved to New Mexico where she met and married my grandfather. They both died in New Mexico, she in 1977 and he in 1949. I don't have much more information that that about the Barker family. Please let me know if you see any possible connection. Thanks, Stephen Purcell
