The Barrett and Vann FamiliesUpdated August 30, 2008 | |
| I am researching the Barrett family of Missouri and New Hampshire. John Barrett married Thankful Dolph in Walpole, New Hampshire in 1809. Their child was John Henry Barrett born July 23, 1814 who married Selona Angier in 1838. Selona's parents were Neadom Angier and Betsy Foster who farmed near Langdon, New Hampshire. John Henry Barrett and Selona moved to Granville, Vermont where she died and is buried along with at least two children. Andrew Albert Barrett born February 18, 1842, traveled with his father John Henry Barrett, and another daughter, Julia Barrett from Vermont into Illinois where he served in the Union Army and married Martha Ellen Johnson and moved into south-western Missouri near Carthage at Medoc, Missouri. Census records in Illinois indicate that Julia married Josiah McKee and that union produced Mary McKee. Everyone was living together in Illinois. Andrew farmed in south-western Missouri and had three sons, my grandfather Frank Forrest, John Hubbard, and Charles Wesley Barrett. Grandfather Frank Barrett married grandmother Anna Viola Catlett daughter of George T. Catlett and Amanda Julian. My mother, Lula May Parker was the daughter of grandmother Margaret Arminta Varner born December 18, 1872 in Washburn, Missouri and grandfather Charles Edward Parker born October 20, 1878 in St Louis, Missouri. Grandmother Maggie was the daughter of John Baxter Varner and Rebecca Ellen Farliss Associated and ancestral families of my Barrett and Parker lines include Angier, Catlett, Goolsby, Savage, Sturgeon, Taliaferro, Thornton, Varner, and Walker. Some of these trace back to colonial Virginia and to England and Ireland. I am also researching my wife's family of Vann and Watts. The Vann family was established in the Alabama-Mississippi area after migrating from Georgia as a consequence of their Vann Cherokee heritage. The Vann family is also associated with Shelton, Carden, Frye, Kenner, Taliaferro, Thornton, Walker, Watts and Winston. Some trace back to colonial Virginia. The Watts family was established in Mississippi and Missouri and surnames associated with that ancestry include Field which can also be traced to early Virginia and frontier Kentucky. |
