Am searching for information about Bennet C. Barnes and his land records. He moved to Wise county between 1850 and 1860. Also searching for info about his son, Simeon (maybe Simon) Barnes and his land records. He was counted in the 1880 census of Wise County as S. R. Barnes. I'm thinking that maybe I can find something about his death through his land records. Simeon Barnes was my great grandmother's father.

It was taken from one of those "90 years ago" sections of the paper, but I don't have the date of the paper the clip came from. If you can find this, I would appreciate it. Thanks. Lou

Hi, Richard... I have to chuckle with your note. Yes, in early searching (and taking spelling variations into account), the Fullingims have often run into the suggestion that Fulgham is a variation. However, it has been determined that Henry Fullingim (the core of the family, father of the group) was originally a Fillingim.. and that in itself was a distortion of Fillingham. We have worked back to the immigrant, Richard Fillingham of Maryland. Just as an aside (considering surnames and evolution thereof), we have had a number of cousins looking at Fillingham castle in Lincolnshire, England. We worked that lead too... only to find that the castle itself had been built some 100 years after our Richard immigrated, and that it was called such after the village, not the family. Wendy

I am researching the descendants of William Splawn of Polk County, NC. Several of his children went to Wise County, some stayed and some moved on. From William's will and other sources, his 13 children can be proven and I am listing them here. Thanks for this wonderful list. I would love to hear from anyone interested in this family. Virginia Green [VaGreen100@aol.com] Descendants of William Splawn Generation No. 1 1. WILLIAM SPLAWN was born May 27, 1800 in South Carolina, and died January 10, 1884 in Polk County, NC. He married (1) Mary (POLLY) CAPSHAW, believed to be the daughter of JAMES CAPSHAW and MARGARET TABOR. She was born January 04, 1806, and died Abt. 1849 in Rutherford County, NC. He married (2) JANE WALDROP December 1850 in Rutherford County, NC. She was born December 02, 1824 in Rutherford County, NC, and died July 24, 1885 in Polk County, NC. William and Jane Waldrop Splawn are buried in the old Splawn graveyard in Polk County, NC. From William Splawn's will, census, and other sources, it is possible to identify his children. In the 1850 census of Rutherford County is listed "Abecca" born 1829. If she was his daughter, she died without heirs before he did. Another possibly is that she wasn't a Splawn at all, but someone "helping out" with his motherless children. Children of WILLIAM SPLAWN and POLLY CAPSHAW are: 1. NARCISSA2 SPLAWN, b. Abt. 1830, Rutherford County, NC; d. Abt. 1890, Wise Co., TX; m. SAMUEL STONE, October 16, 1846, Rutherford County, NC; d. Bef. 1870. Narcissa is not known to have any children.

Someone was asking re the family of William and Rebecca Barnes? I have been working with some info tonite, which may or may not help. There are some conflicts w/ 1860 indexes that I am finding online. One index does not include the home of John W. Hale. The actual image shows him and his wife, daughter Rowena, as well as Mary Barnes, Marion Barnes, and Lucy Scarborough. Lucy also shows up in another different home. Go figure... Mary Fullingim Hale was a sister to Ramen E Fullingim, first wife of Henry Renner. Ramen d. in 1863, leaving 2 girls. Henry then married Marion Cyempka Barnes (based on the age in the census, I'd bet this to be the Mary Barnes, age 15, living with John Hale.). The Marion shown in the census is listed as an 8 yr old male. !!?? We do know that Henry and his 2nd wife left Texas, for Benton county, Ark., where they are shown on the 1880 census. There is a Barnes female (sister in law) in the home, as well. Henry Renner and Marion moved ca 1883, to Malheur, Oregon., and died there. I can't determine what, if any, connection Bennet C. Barnes is to William Barnes, based on the census. Let me know if you need further details. Wendy

I would like to have copies of your line from George down to the present. I know it is crazy but I like to gather info for all the siblings lines too. This is a never ending puzzle that intriguies me. I will be happy to share my info also. Do you have a copy of "The Jeter Family", I think that is the title, my Daddy's aunt published it. It traces the Jeter family back to Edmund Jeter born about 1600 in Laystable, E. Suffolk, England. It is nice to meet you. How long have you been working on family history?
