Paula,

Great to hear from some of the Barnes Family in Muskogee Co. I do not know who the Barnes I am looking for are. What I do know is that Hiram Barnes m. Winona Starr at Briartown in 1885, died in 1936 and is burried in the Starr Cemetary. Children I know of are Beulah, Joseph, Clinton, Oscar, Cornelius, Charles and Jessie. Alexander Barnes married Caroline Crane in 1871 and died in 1908. Known children were Martha, Nancy, Antonia, Mary, Melinda, and Bessie. John T. Barnes married Isabella Hale in 1886. Do not know where or when he died. Known children were Ellis, Elly, Sarah, Alexander, Mary, Clem, John T., and Eula. John T., Alexander, and Hiram were brothers of my grandfather Adam Barnes. their parents were Loftin Barnes and Mary Brown. If you see where you might fit in here please let me know.
