Hi Jean I have the parents of David Lewis Barger b. 1827 as John Barger and Christiana Wilhem. I have the parents of Julianna Crush b. ca 1825 as Jacob Crush and Susannah Switzer. According to Related Families of Botetourt County Virginia by J. William Austin II and Rebecca H R Austin, Roanoke, VA Oct 1977 pg 337 & 340, David Lewis Barger and Julianna (or Julia Ann) Crush had the following children: 1-George W. Barger m. Elizabeth Merritt 2-Norman Lee Barger m. Elizabeth Barger 3-Landonia Belle Barger m. James Dillion 4-Jacob Barger m. Lucy Zell 5-Lydia Barger m. Benjamin Newton Harris 6-David Preston Barger m. Lula Wilhem 7-Elizabeth P. Barger m. Charles Hugh Keeney of Lick Run 8-William Russell m. 1st Alice Riddlebarger 2bd Mary Martha Esterline Shaffer 9-John Samuel Barger m. Minnie Myers As with any of these books there are errors. I have found several in the Austin book in my line, so please just use this as a guide to research of your family. Good Luck.

I am positive that David Lewis BARGER was in Botetourt County and almost positive the others were too. Any help would be appreciated. Jean [email protected] >>
