The following was posted a while ago. Since then I have found a web page that helps links this information with more recent generations. I have added this information to the end of this message

Hi all Barbee researchers...

We can speculate that our first Virginia ancestor could have been a William Barby who appears as one of the twenty head rights of George Morris and John Pigge for their purchase of 1000 acres in New Kent County, Virginia on December 14, 1660. This William Barbee could have come over even earlier than 1660 since headrights were often saved up and used much later for the securing of large land grants.

This William Barby could have had at least two sons: (1) Andrew Barbee from whom many Virginia and Kentucky Barbees are descended, and (2) William Barbee whose Will was recorded in Middlesex County Virginia, showing him to have been a prosperous planter who died in 1720/1. This William Barbee was the progenitor of the multitude of Barbees of Chatham, Orange, and Wake Counties in North Carolina.

ANDREW BARBEE OF STAFFORD COUNTY, VIRGINIA

FIRST VERIFIED ANCESTOR

The Barbee family of "Oakland", Danville Kentucky can be traced with certainty from Andrew Barbee of Stafford County, Virginia, according to an old family chart completed by * Daisy Barbee. Andrew died in Stafford County before September 11, 1699, the time of the Inventory of his Estate by his widow, Sarah Barbee, who, following her husband’s death had married Thomas James. The "Inventory" was presented at Court in November 1702 and included mostly livestock and among other things "two sizeable chests, and old sword and guns," also a certain amount of household gear. This inventory was done especially for the benefit of the two orphans, Thomas and Mary Barbee, who were not yet of age at the time of their fathers death. Thomas Barbee was born 1690 so he must have been round nine years old.

We know that Andrew Barbee and his wife, Sarah, had these two children, Thomas and Mary Barbee, because of a Gift of Deed the children received from George Mason II, dated April 9, 1701. The land given had been inherited form George Mason I who had come to Virginia in 1651/2 and settled near the Brents, Fowkes, and Peytons on land drained by Potomoc Creek and Accokeek Run and near the mouth of Aquia Creek. This had been the home plantation for the father, but, while retaining his leadership in the area, George Mason II moved his home plantation northward to Pohick on Doeg’s Neck and land on which "Gunston Hall" eventually would be built by his grandson, George Mason IV, who wrote the Bill of Rights for the United States onstitution.

The Gift of Deed reads as follows:

This great granddaughter of Elias Barbee of Green County, Kentucky was the first woman to attend Washington University Law School in St. Louis, Missouri in 1895. She retired in 1949 after 53 years as a member of the bar and 40 years in active practice. She had graduated cum laude in 1896 after winning the annual law senior’s thesis prize with 38 contenders. Called "the Pertia of St. Louis," she was "hailed at the turn of the century as St. Louis’ first successful woman barrister, the champion of women in distress." (Clifton McEwen, "The Unforgettable Daisy Barbee, " St. Louis Globe Democrat, October 1, 1950, p 15)

It would seem that the Barbees and the Masons were very closely associated or even related at this early date. Later, about 1856, Frances Julia Barbee of "Oakland" would marry Presley Mason Talbot, a direct descendant of this George Mason II.

Note: there were 5 foot notes referenced, which I do not have.

****************************************

Major Barbee Lines in the United States:

William Barbee of Essex and Middlesex Counties, Virginia (1660 - 1720). Descendants moved to the Wake, Chatham, Orange County area of North Carolina and then many branches went to Tennessee. A very few branches went to Kentucky, Georgia and Texas. This is one of the best documented Barbee lines. For extensive information on this line look for "A Study of the Barbee Families of Chatham, Orange and Wake Counties in North Carolina" by Ruth Herndon Shields, Belle Lewter West and Kathryn Crossley Stone, 1971 in many genealogical libraries. There is a thick supplement also.

Andrew Barbee of Stafford and Faquier Counties, Virginia (1670 - 1699). Descendants moved to Culpeper County, Virginia and Kentucky. Many lines moved north and west from there including Ohio, Illinois, and Missouri. Although not much has been published on this line, we are beginning to piece it together. I would appreciate your help!

Other Barbee Lines and unconnected Barbees.

John "Smith" Barbee was my GGG grandfather. He was orphaned before the Civil War in Macon County, Tennessee and was supposedly reared by his grandfather (unknown). I believe his mother’s name was Polly. I am trying to identify his father. Smith married Loubina Henderson, daughter of Ira Henderson. They appear in the records of both Macon County, Tennessee and Allen County, Kentucky before moving to Chataqua County, Kansas. With 14 children, they have many descendants in Oklahoma.

Beware of mis-indexing!

Researching Barbee’s is complicated by frequent misinterpretations of the name in the original records as BARBER. Often, census, marriage and other records are indexed as BARBER, even when the original record is clearly BARBEE. As you can guess, there are many more Barbers in the U.S. than Barbee’s. To this day, people tend to spell my name BARBER, or they assume Barbee is my given name. Consequently, indexes are even less reliable than usual for determining whether a Barbee record exists. If you think Barbee’s were in the area—go to the original records!

Hope you make a connection!

Hi,

I just wanted to let you all know that I have been off-line for a while with a move and a computer malfunction, but hope to soon be able to update my web site. I’m always looking for other Barbee links, so if anyone has a related web site, please let me know and I’ll add a link. This list is a great idea. I have a lot of catching up to do. Thanks!

Hi all!

If anyone is in need of an 1850 VA (entire state) Census lookup—I can do them! If interested—please do the following:

1. Send lookup requests directly to me --> AmyeA@aol.com

2. Put 1850 VIRGINIA CENSUS LOOKUP in your subject line—so I don’t accidentally delete the message.

3. Be concise—no long paragraphs of persons names or dates to go through

For example: Looking for: John Q. SMITH and wife, Sarah. Children:

Samuel, Ellen, James. Probably in Tazewell Co. or Russell Co.

4. If it’s a very common surname—please give extra identifying info.— such as approx. how old they would have been—and make sure to put which counties that you suspect they may have been in. (or else I’ll be searching for days)

Amy :)

Hmm. I wonder if this "Accokeek" is the same as Accotink Creek which empties into the Potomac forming area referred to by locals as the "Mason Neck" and is a little south of Mt. Vernon. The next main waterway down river (Potomac-wise), on the Virginia side, is Occoquan River that forms the Fairfax/Prince William county boundary over the eastern part of the two counties. Don't remember if the "neck" is bounded by Accotink Creek and the Occoquan River.

John Speight

Was wondering if there is any consensus on the cultural origins of the name "Barbee"? Is it German? English? Does anyone know with any certainty?

Response:

Although the name or versions of the name have been found in a number of countries; especially Germany, England, Ireland, and France. Most traditions that I have heard of conveyed a French origin. We had about decided that this was incorrect after Mrs. Stone’s book came out. However, recently we have found a book that lists "Barbe" among the names of French Huguenots that were driven out of France in the middle 15 hundreds. Germany, England, and Ireland took the Protestant refuges into their mist. The French Huguenots were followers of John Calvin; and the mear accusation that you were a Huguenot meant death! These people for the most part became very successful middle class people in the new countries. In trying to fit into the new countries they named their children names used in the new country and often made their own names sound more suitable. I have no proof that this is the origin—but it seems to fit.

Below is some marriages of Barbee in VA and NC. I hope that it can help someone. I do not have this disk.

Sorry for the length, but I have condensed as far as I can. I have more data if someone is interested.

I am trying to connect my Missouri Barbee’s back to the Barbee’s who moved from Fauquier Co., VA to Fayette Co., KY about 1785. I am providing, below, three separate lines, as follows: A) Andrew (1660-1699), B) John (1700s) and C) William (1822-1848).

The data for line A was extracted from the Fauquier Co., VA web page, line B from CD187, Broderbund Software, Inc., which includes VA genealogies and vital records, and line C is my direct line supported by official records. I am attempting to connect line C to B and subsequently to A. I have a lot of circumstantial evidence, but no proof of any connections. In reviewing the below data, approximately ½ has been verified from other sources, so it is likely to be well researched. Items that come from other sources are shown in brackets [ ]. Items which lead me to conclude a connection to my line are shown in uppercase.

Questions:

1) Can anyone connect William (C1) to William and Elizabeth (B3)?

Any siblings for William (C1)?

2) Can anyone connect John (B1) and John (A3) as the same person?

He would have been about age 44 when Andrew (B2) was born.

3) John Bradford founded the Kentucky Gazette in Lexington in 1787.

I believe he probably included his family birth, marriage,

and

death data in the paper. If anyone is near the Lexington

library,

issues of the paper are located there.

If anyone has anything to add or can bridge the gap between MISSOURI and KY, please respond to kidred@inetone.net.

Thank you,

In reply to Robert Perry’s last message—my name is Sharon Ware and I have been trying to find parents of my Benjamin for sooooo long. Benjamin was b ca 1760 in Va (?), served in Rev War, married to a Mary, migrated to Ohio possibly via Portsmouth, Scioto Co., Ohio, on to Liberty Twp., Butler County, Ohio. He died there in 1816. Most of his children moved north during the 1830’s to Shelby Co., Ohio.

I have tons on Benjamin’s children but have not located his parents.

I also collect info on other lines—esp the early Andrew & Sarah E. Barbee, but I do have large file on the early Wm & his two marriages. I especially have info on Barbee’s in Ohio, as I am now working on the group who lived in Franklin Co., Ohio. I have a file on those who were in the Ross Co., Ohio area.

Traced an early Thomas Barbee m to Patti Barham who went to Al. I might be able to help anyone in that area. Also, traced a supposedly Louis in TN, but there never was early Louis, we find it now to be a Joseph m to Elizabeth Laurence.

Anyway, if I can help you, I will try. but sure would like to find Benjamin’s parents!

Sharon

Sharon or anyone,

We may have talked before, but, I will try again and put this on the BARBEE LIST.

I am looking for information on ROBERT BARBEE b.1786 in Virginia.

May be connected to ANDREW BARBEE but I have not found a connection. Robert came to Bath Co. KY around 1800, son JOHN BARBEE b. 1820 in Bath Co. KY d.4-18-1852 in Bath co. Married Martha Grimsley c1845.

Any help appreciated. Vearl

I am looking for my husband’s gr-grandparents, Benjamin Barbee Jr. who married Ella Lively on 13 Aug 1889 in Newton Co, AR.

His father Ben or Benjamin Barbee Sr signed the security bond.

After finding this marriage licenses I believe we have been following the wrong line of Barbee’s for many years. So I’m hoping someone will be able to help me in finding either Ben Barbee Jr and Ben Barbee Sr.

The marriage licenses says he was from Mt Hussy in Newton Co, AR.

Ella Lively was also from Newton Co, AR.

I believe this family lived in or around Dallas Co, AR as 2 of the children are listed as born "around" Dallas Co, Ar. I also believe at some time they lived around Washington Co. Later moving into Oklahoma.

Benjamin Barbee or he was sometimes called Ben or BG Barbee. born May 1, 1870 and died Dec 31, 1943 in Shidler, OK. He is buried in Bartlesville, OK. He m. Ella 15 Aug 1889 Newton, Co, AR. Ella b. 13 Nov 1871 Newton Co, AR and d 8 Jan 1940. She was the daughter of Willis and Cassie (George) Lively of AR.

Children of Ben and Ella (Lively) Barbee.

Hello Everyone

I am new to this list and would like to post some information. Hopefully I can make a connection with some of you. I descend from the Chatam, Orange and Wake County North Carolina BARBEE’S. The following small outline is a piece of my lineage where the JONES and BARBEE’S connect. I have a ton of information on the North Carolina BARBEE lines but I am at dead end with my JONES line.

I

Hi, I am new to this list. One of my ancestors married into the BARBEE family. I am looking for information on the following:

Edgar L. BARBEE m’d Mollie (PEPPER), daughter of John DuVall & Martha J.

(GLOVER) PEPPER. Edgar & Mollie m’d Sept. 24, 1882 in Platte Co., MISSOURI.

I have not really looked into their marriage or anything. I am planning on getting a copy of the marriage certificate but just have not gotten around to it yet. Was wondering if I might connect with someone out there.

Thank you for your time and attention.

I traced my line from Virginia thru North Carolina to east Texas. I know that a few split off and went to Kentucky and one son went to South Carolina. I did not trace those lines. If you can get your line back to North Carolina, I can probably help you. I would suggest that you look in all of the counties around Raleigh, North Carolina which seems to be where they settled before they

went to Kentucky. In particular, look in Wake, Orange, and Durham Counties.

Good luck.

FIRST GENERATION

1. Edward BARBEE (estimated birth 1830’s) was living in Missing Ford (or Mossing Ford), Charlotte County, Virginia in 1862. Shortly after, moved to Hopkinsville, (Christian county) Kentucky. He was married to Elizabeth.(last name not yet known). I’m very anxious to learn more about their ancestors, siblings and descendants.

Edward BARBEE and Elizabeth had the following children:

+2 i. 'Lee' Judson BARBEE. 1862-1934 (See Below)

3 ii. W. W. BARBEE. (estimated birth 1860’s) In 1934, he was living in Oak

Grove, KY.

4 iii. Florence BARBEE. (estimated birth 1860’s) In 1934, Mrs. Florence

Barbee Wooten was living in San Antonio, TEXAS.

5 iv. possible other children BARBEE.(estimated birth 1860’s). If there

were other children, they had probably died by 1934.

SECOND GENERATION

2. 'Lee' Judson BARBEE was born on Jan 26 1862 in Missing Ford, VA. (or Mossing Ford in Charlotte County) He died on Jul 22 1934 in Bluefield , VA. He was buried in Maple Hill Cemetery, West Graham (now Bluefield), VA. The following are highlights from his obituary: As a small child, he moved with his parents to Hopkinsville, KY where he grew up and received his education. He returned to Virginia in 1882, joining the S. Walton construction company of Falls Mills, as a bookkeeper. In 1915, he was made president of that firm, and was responsible for the construction of numerous railroads through the area. He retired from that concern in 1923, and became associated with the Bank of Graham. He became President of the Bank of Graham in 1927, and also served as a director of the Commercial Bank, of Bluefield, WV. He was a Mason and Shriner, serving in leadership positions, and was an avid fisherman and hunter. He served for many years on the Board of Stewards of the First Methodist Church. The obituary further notes "...the handsome residence of Mr. and Mrs. Barbee, which occupies an eminence south of the town, was always open to their friends with its well known hospitality."

He was married to Frances 'Fannie' Patton MCCALL (daughter of Jesse Meek MCCALL and Mary Matilda GEORGE ) on Dec 23 1890 in Graham, VA (now Bluefield VA). Frances 'Fannie' Patton MCCALL was born on Jan 17 1869 at "The Willows," Witten Valley, Tazewell Co., VA. She died on Sep 21 1957 in Akron, Ohio. She resided at Bluefield, VA for most of her life.. She Was buried in Maple Hill Cemetery, West Graham (now Bluefield), VA. Their home was on Tazewell Avenue in Bluefield, VA. In the mid 1940's she lived in Alexandria, VA, presumably with her son Lee Jr., and about 1947, went to Akron, Ohio to live with her son Edward. Her 1957 obituary in the Bluefield paper indicates she was survived by one son, Edward, and five grandchildren. (the Akron obituary says four grandchildren and five great-grandchildren) 'Lee' Judson BARBEE and Frances 'Fannie' Patton MCCALL had the following children:

+6 i. Edward McCall 'Mack' BARBEE. 1891-1959

+7 ii. Lee J. BARBEE Jr..1898 to ?

There is a stained glass window in her memory in the First Methodist Church of Bluefield, VA.

Bluefield VA). He died on Feb 12 1959 in Akron, Ohio. He was buried in Maple Hill Cemetery, West Graham (now Bluefield), VA.

I am new to the Barbee Discussion List and a VanBebber researcher. I am looking to identify the parents of Elizabeth and Emily Barbee. Elizabeth Barbee (14 Jun 1813 - 8 Aug 1864) married William VanBebber about 1830 in Tn. and died in Ray Co. Missouri. After the death of Elizabeth,

William married her sister Emily (Barbee) Herron. William and Elizabeth are buried in VanBebber cemetery, Ray Co. Missouri.

What happened to Emily after the death of William in 1870? Any information on this family will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello,

Below is the information I have on my BARBEE Line - I still have questions and gaps to fill in as I’m sure most of you do and will appreciate any help in that area!!!

It begins with James Barbee of NC and that is all I have and have no verification on this. Then it goes:

Elsea (sometimes spelled Elize) Barby/Barbee born ca 1797 - Elsea married Polly Maples in 1820 in Grainger County, Tennessee - their children are:

1. James Barbee who married Mahala Ann Puckett
2. George F. Barbee who married Mariah E. Byram
3. David Barbee who married Mary Puckett (my great-great grandparents)
4. Lewis Barbee who was married 3 times - (1) Louis Eliz. ? (2) Sarah ? (3) Flora Boyd (who died in 1902) Lewis was born between 1823 and 1825.

Also have information that Lewis was buried in Cleveland, TN in 1904 but have not verified this.

James Barbee and Mahala Puckett Barbee hand the following children:

1. A. Barbee,
2. J.R. Barbee,
3. S.M. Barbee
4. M.L. Barbee

(I don’t know what all the initials stand for)

George Barbee and Mariah Byram had the following children:

1. E.N. Barbee
2. William Barbee
3. N.E. Barbee

David Barbee and Mary Puckett had the following children:

1. William Barbee
2. James Barbee
3. Nancy Barbee
4. Louisa Barbee
5. Martha Ellin Barbee
6. Harvey Robert Barbee (born 1867)

They lived in Jefferson County, Tennessee. Martha Ellin is my great great grandmother - she later married Charles Shannon Jett.

Harvey Robert Barbee married Louiza Cannon (who was born 1876 and died 1953) - they had the following children:

1. Lady Kate Barbee
2. Lucy Uretha Barbee (born 1896) who married Napoleon Bonaparte Templeton
3. Rece Brown Barbee born 1899
4. Beecher Smith Barbee born 1901 died 1968 who was married to Edna Brooks
5. Sanford Burnett Barbee born 1903 who married Gladys Talbott, George Clark Barbee born 1907 who married Vadney Brooks
6. Geneva Mary Elizabeth Barbee born 1911 who married Fred Lunce.

Now, Lewis Barbee and his three wives had a lot of children and the breakdown is as follows: Lewis and Louiza had William Houston Barbee born ca 1844, James K.P. Barbee born ca ca 1859, Benjamin Caswell Barbee born ca 1849, Mary Elizabeth Barbee born ca 1852, and Silas Wright Barbee born ca 1847. Then with his second wife Sarah had Rachel S. Barbee born ca 1879, Frankie Barbee born ca 1876. I also have info from another researcher that gives two other children, Benjamin Franklin Barbee who later married a Mary Epley, and Isabelle Barbee who married a Mr. Crouch. With his third wife Flora Boyd he had the following children: Nancy Ann Barbee born 1891, Grover C. Barbee born 1894, John Barbee born 1897, Julia Barbee born 1901 and also Thomas Barbee (no dates).

If anyone has this line, I also have a list of children of Martha Ellin Barbee and Charles Shannon Jett and also a list of children of William Houston Barbee who married Lydia Ann Housely/Housley - let me know if you need these names.

William Houston Barbee had a son Bemjamin Barbee who was born in Arkansas in 1874 or 1875 and I have some information about him as well.

If anyone has any more info on this line of Barbees please let me hear from you. Or if you find corrections that need to be made also let me know.

Hi Debbie, You have lots of info about Elsea Barbee's children. I'd like to know, if you don't mind, how you received that information? I can't find anything on the computer at the history center to connect. Frankie Barbee, brother of Rachel S. Barbee, is the Frank that was married to Mary Epley. Frank and Mary are my husband's grandparents. I had the privilege of meeting Mary Epley Barbee. Lewis Barbee, father of Frank Barbee, his 1st wife was Elizabeth Jones (Louise was a nickname for Elizabeth); 2nd wife was Sarah Thomas, mother of Frank & Rachel S. Barbee. I didn't know there were suppose to be any other children (Benjamin Franklin & Isabelle?).3rd wife was Flora Boyd.

Lewis Barbee Co. I 4th Tenn. Cav. is buried at McDonald Cemetery, Hamilton County. That info comes from 1860 Hamilton Co. census; 1880 James Co. soundex and census; 1900 James Co. census; 1900 Bradley Co. census, all of Tennessee, and from Lewis Barbee's pension application. Nashville Archives sent me Lewis' regiment and burial location. I surely would appreciate any more info that you might have. :) Martha Elzia Barbee was the daughter of Frank and Mary. Martha married James Anderson Bice. I married one of their 12 children, Almon Jesse Bice. Thanks so much!!!! Evelyn Bice

I have run into a brick wall with this Barbee Family. I have Franklin and Margaret Adams marrying in Franklin Co. Ohio in 1828. Where he really came from, I’m not sure and what happened to him, I am also not sure.

His son was Thomas Sheldon Barbee. Thomas eventually moved to Nebraska where he died 11-10-1907.

Thomas and Martha or "Lucinda" had 5 children.

I have made contact with Belle Barbee’s family and we are from William’s line.I would love to exchange any info with other members of this family, but more importantly would like to figure out where Franklin comes from. HELP!

Hello Deb,

I don’t find a Franklin Barbee in my records, but I do know that the grandson of Andrew Barbee, John (b. 1724 d. 1805 Mercer Co KY) went to KY and raised his family. He was married twice, first to Elizabeth Welch and then to Phylis Duncan. He had children with both ladies. This may be a place to look. I think he had a total of nine sons.

Good Luck,

Melinda

I posted a note the other day but came across this that I had received from another member of the family.

Seeking info. on parents, other ancestors, siblings, children of Franklin Barbee, b. Kentucky abt 1808. the family had lived in VA before that. He moved with his family to Franklin Co., Ohio abt 1813. He married Margaret (or Mary) Adams 1828. Had children: Ben abt 1820, Elizabeth abt 1832, Thomas Sheldon 1833. Wife and daughter died 1835 or 36. (Tombstones badly weathered). Franklin married Lucinda Merris 1836. No other children known. They later moved to Scott Co., I

Thomas Sheldon married Lucinda White, had four children, one of them William Ulyses,

moved to Gresham, NE in 1881.

Just trying a different tack!

Deb

I know I have wrote this before but I’m taking a stab again. Franklin was born abt. 1805 in Va.

He married his 2^nd wife is Lucinda Merriss on March 12,1835. The only child from this marriage I think is Abigail b. July 9 1836.He was married to his 1^st wife Margaret Adams .

I was told by Debbie another subsriber that Franklin was born 1807 in Ky.Margaret died in 1835. They had 3 children: Ben, Elizabeth, Thomas Sheldon. If any one can help futher with any info Please write.

Thank you

Phyllis Burkiett

Hi everybody,

I am joining Phyllis on this search for Franklin Barbee’s family. Hope someone out there knows more about him! I’m more than willing to share what I know of my line, which is that of Thomas Sheldon Barbee.

Deb

Hi. I’m taking a stab and seeing if someone new out on the list might connect. My husband’s gggg grandfather was Franklin Barbee about 1805 in Virginia and married Margaret Adams in 1828 they had 3 children Ben, Elizabeth. and Thomas Sheldon. Thomas married Lucinda Whiteha 5 children 2 unknown Stanton, Belle, William Ulyses.Margaret died I thin in 1835 with her daughter. Franklin married Lucinda Merriss in 1836 in Franklin Co. Ohio. Abigail their daughter was b. August 9, 1836 in Columbus Ohio. Franklin and Lucinda did have a son because Lucinda died while visting him in Iowa. Could be more also. Abigail married George Burnett March 16, 1854 in Fairview Fulton ILL. A lady Deb on the list gave me some of this info. If you see any connections please wirte back

Thank you

Phyllis Burkiett

Dear Phyllis and other list members: Do you know of any connection between the Franklin Barbee family, above, and the Edward Barbee, below.

Edward BARBEE was born in the 1830’s or early 1840’s (estimated), probably in Charlotte County, Virginia. He was living in Mossing Ford, Virginia (Charlotte County) in the early 1860’s and soon afterward moved to Hopkinsville, Kentucky (Christian County).

He was married to Elizabeth and they had three children:

Thanks,

Robert Perry

Hi Robert,

I have a newapaper interview with Franklin’s son-in-law George Burnett. He said and alot of documents says Franklin was born in Va. Deb wrote she found he was born in Ky. in abt 1808. Maybe parents came when he was 3 to Ky. and and then went on to Franklin Ohio in 1813 where he married Margaret Adams.I working on files this weekend I’ll try to see if anything goes together and write back more.

Thank you

Phyllis Burkiett

This is a long time coming for Sharon who has been real patient I got very sick for along time and lots of test then I moved with all the packing and unpacking plus being a preschool teacher didn’t leave me any time to do my family research.But hopfully I’m back There is alot of other barbee researchers that has ask me things also.

a george barbee of va born 1860’s? (white) is in the horseracing hall of fame as a jockey. anyone familiar?

To all the BARBEE List,

May I introduce myself, I am Linda Barbee Thompson. My family is a direct line right back through the "three Christopher’s" and then John and William BARBEE in VA. My research, like so many of us, was started with the Ruth Herndon Shields book, " BARBEE FAMILIES OF CHATHAM, ORANGE AND WAKE COUNTIES IN NC.

My grandfather was Ernest Paul BARBEE. My father was his oldest son, Robert O. BARBEE, and I am the oldest daughter. I would love to correspond with any of the numerous cousins that I know are out there. The section in the "BARBEES" book that my line is from, has lots of holes and I can fill in some of them. I am hoping there is someone out there who will be able to fill in some of my blank spaces.

Happy Hunting to all of "the cousins"

I am looking for information on the BARBEE line that came to Fl. from Georgia.

My Uncle was LM Barbee named after his father LM.,and his mother was Arriann.All I have is the info. listed in the 1920 census, which states they came from GA. According to the ages of the children their first child was born in 1901 in GA. They came to GA. before their next child was born in 1903. They had a total of 7 children. Their names were; Monroe, Ida Mae, Ruby, Julia ?,Maud, LM, Ossie, Mildred.

Thank-you for any help you may be able to give me.

I am looking for the parents and sibblings of H.W. Barbee b. 1817 NC and he married Eleanor (last name unknown) she was b. 1813 in TN. (NOTE!!!! I don’t know what the H.W. stands for, it could be Harry Willard or Harry Willis or Henry William as some of the other children have those names in some combination.)

CHILDREN:

1. Lewis Willis Barbee b. 1835 and married Martha Ann Jones.

Both are buried in Memorial Park, Bartlesville, Washington Co, OK. Frances was the daughter of Willis and Cassie (George) Lively.

3. Arkansas Barbee

In my research, I feel the above family might descend from William and Elizabeth Barbee.

Their Children:

1. John Barbee b. abt 1683 m. Ann Miller
2. Hannah Ann Barbee b. 1685
3. William Barbee Jr. b. 1687. he m. Mary Gray.

Children:

1. James Barbee b. 1705
2. Benjamin Barbee b. 1707
3. Elizabeth Barbee b. 1710
4. Mary Barbee b. 1715
5. Gray Barbee b. 1717
6. George Barbee b. 1717

The names Benjamin, Gray and Mary are handed down in the above generation to one of John & Ann (Miller) Barbee’s children, Joseph who was b. ca. 1704 who also married a Mary. He named one child Gray and another Mary. While Mary is a very common names Gray is most unusual.

In order to connect my husband’s line to this William and Mary (Gray) Barbee line I need to fill in from 1717 to 1871 to Benjamin Gray Barbee as shown above, some 150 years. If anyone has any information, EVEN A SMALL AMOUNT, on any of the above families I certainly would appreciate some help.

I do have more information on some of the other children and grandchildren of H.W. Barbee. I will be be glad to share.

Thanks,

Thelma

Hi!

I’m new to the list. I supposedly am related to the Barbee family through my Rhodes family. Way back in the 1600’s a Christopher Rhodes is said to have married Hannah Barbee in VA. They had a son Hezekiah Rhodes who was born around 1660? I would love any information that might verify this!! Thanks!

I'd like to hear from anyone who is working on any line of the family of Hazael BARBEE and wife Phoebe Ann CLAYTON. My interest is in John BARBEE, born 21 Dec 1821? in Ross Co, Ohio.

His father, Hazael, died around 1825, and his mother Phoebe Clayton re-married James MILLER and moved to Shelby Co, IL Hazael and wife had 6 children, but I do not know anything about

them.

John married Deborah Ellen COMPTON on 23 Nov 1875, and settled in Shelby Co, IL. They had one known child, Charles Milton BARBEE.

The above info was taken from a county history, and I'm not sure the

dates, etc. are right. Your input would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Greetings Barbee Folks,

My GGGGrandpop must have been so special that all of his history was

hidden

away -- Or, could it be that I've not been in the right records area???

John BARBEE married Mildred (Milly) BRICKEY 12/1804 Va.

During 1807-1816 he was purchasing land in Breckinridge Co., Ky. John

died

prior to 5/1816. I have located several John BARBEEs here and there,

but

cannot prove any are my John.

I'm hoping I've a "Cuz" on this list who can give me some clues.

Thanks, Wilma

Can someone tell me who the parents are of the following people?

2. Abimeleck BARBEE who married Hannah WHITAKER.

3. Benelegs BARBEE.

4. John BARBEE, born about 1715, and married Sarah GOIN.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Doyle,

I have some information for you but as of right now I have not connect to it.

You may want to try the Barbeecrossroad site for proven cousins.

#1 John Barbee b 1737 NC d 177 m Sarah Patterson. His Parents, William Barbee and Rachel Dobson. Grandparent, John Barbee and Ann Miller. Great-grandparent, William Barbee and Elizabeth Beaumont. (I have more information in the way of dates, place and siblings, if you can you should try and borrow a copy of the Barbee book written by Ruth Herndon Shields and Assoc. There is also a supplement that would be of help)

#2 I remember seeing the name but don’t have any information in my files.

#3 I have a different spelling but I think it is the same person. Beneledge was the 1^st cousin of #1. His father was Christopher Barbee b. @ 1715 VA, his mother was Margaret.

#4 Sorry, no information.

If you want the other information I have, let me know.

Greetings, all you Barbees out there.

I am researching my husband’s line from the Carrolls into the Barbees. His GGGGrandfather is JOHN BARBEE CARROLL, b. abt 1796, in Orange County, NC; married to ELIZABETH POTEET, b. 1802 in Buncombe County, NC.

Herein stands my brick wall:

I have found in a Family Tree Maker Pedigree, a CHARLES CARROLL married to an EDITH BARBEE (aka Edie, or Edy) who was the daughter of JOHN BARBEE. My supposition is that Edith Barbee Carroll might have named her child JOHN BARBEE CARROLL. I found in the Orange Co. Marriage Bonds a Charles Carrell and Edy Barbee dated Sep. 27, 1794. I just can’t seem to come up with a source to verify that John Barbee Carroll is their son. Any ideas out there?

The following may be useful to someone:

While visiting the gravesite of James H. Carroll (1850--1932), grandson of

John Barbee Carroll we found that the next gravestone over had the following

names: SHELAH F. BARBEE 1860--1931, PAPA

and ELIZABETH J. BARBEE, 1861--1940, MAMA

This is at Hearn Hill Cemetery, Wilson County, Tennessee near Watertown.

Wilson is the county east of Nashville’s Davidson County.

Write if I can help on this one.

Any help on a breakthrough for me will be appreciated. Marilyn

Season’s Greetings to All,

John BARBEE married Mildred BRICKEY 12/1804. John purchased property in Breckinridge Co., KY in 1807. John was dead by 1816. Milly then married Pleasant Eidson.

It sure would be exciting to find another John/Milly researcher as I am unable to prove that John existed prior to 1807.

The BRICKEY family was in Bedford, Botetourt and Westmoreland, Va. Counties.

HAPPY NEW YEAR,

Wilma

Hello ?

Someone wrote to ask about the parents of John Barbee b. ?? 1814. I had gotten so caught up in looking for the information that I failed to read the name on the message and I don’t know who was writing. Then to add to my woes I got kicked off the net and can’t find the message. So, please, rewrite as I have a possible answer. I need the name of John’s wife again.

Melinda

Hello John,

You can’t fool me. You were not original sender of the John Barbee message but I looked up information for you anyway.

I have a couple of possible leads. #1 John T. Barbee b. 1783. Son of John B.

Barbee and Mary (Margy) Dyson. This is in the Andrew Barbee Line. I haven’t followed John T. line down so I am not sure of his wife. John B. b 1757 d Sept 23, 1835 VA. John and Mary had eight other children.

#2 William Barbee and Mary Smith had a son named John but I haven’t found any more on him. I only included this one as two of his brothers were born in 1784 and 1788.

Sorry I couldn’t help more.

Melinda

I am seeking information on John Barbee, born 1 Mar 1819 in Vinton Co., Ohio. He married 4 Jan 1838 in Jackson Co. Ohio to Mary Ann Walker(?). He died 2 Aug 1888 in Jackson Twp/ Jackson Co. Ohio.

Hello,

Does anyone have information on a John Barbee, born about 1845-1850 who married Deborah Ellen COMPTON? I know nothing about him, but his wife was born in Ohio, possibly Pickaway Co, of parents who came from Berkeley Co, VA. I do not have a date or place of the marriage. They may have settled in Shelby Co, IL.

Thanks,

I have just started researching my family heritage and have only been

able to go back this far:

My grandfather was Paul Francis Barbee, b. 28 Aug 1919 in Bethesda,

MD, d. 20 Sep. 1967 in MD, m. to Helen Marie Kuldell.

His parents were John Edward Barbee and Martha Ann Poore. I just

received the following information about John from the Social Security

Administration. Born 14 Sep 1882 in Raleigh, Wake Co., NC; Died Dec

1966, Washington, DC. His father is listed as Henry Aloysius Barbee

and his mother as Hanna Shane.

I have no further information re: any of Paul's siblings, John's siblings, or

any information re: Henry Aloysius Barbee. If anyone either has

information or can point me to a good resource, I would greatly

appreciate it.

Hi there I am new to the list and am researching this Barbee line. Any help would be appreciated. Also hope this may help some others doing research on this line.

Thanks to those of you who have provided information on the Barbee family for me.

I am curious if there is any source information connecting the Joseph and Leannah of KY with the Fauquier CO. VA Barbees.

On the other hand, I have quite a bit of evidence that points to the Joseph Barbee, son of Thomas, dying by 1800 in Fauquier Co. VA - not going to KY.

Please let me know how this Joseph of KY has been placed with Andrew Barbee’s descendants, rather than the Barbees of Essex Co., etc.

Thanks,

Rick

Me again!

In response to Rick’s roll call I’m listing a couple of "facts" copied from here and there. I hope they will help someone.

Ky. Obits 1787-1854:

Joseph, Fayette County, 10/1/1831, knife cut

Andrew, Lexington, 7/1/1813, thrown by horse

General Thomas, Louisville (I apparently didn’t copy how he died)

KY Records, Early Wills and Marriages

Joseph Barbee, will book 3, page 15, Leeannah, son Jesse and other children

not listed, 9/1814

1812 Pensions

Christopher wife Elizabeth HERREN ---- Christopher d. 1851, Eliz. d. 5/1898, married 1821 Winchester, TN.

I’ve notes for other pension/war activities but do not want to repeat information you folks already have. I will be happy to share whatever I have if you want to email me.

I am new to this site but not new to researching my Barbee family. The following is what I have and hope that someone can help me find the parents of Joseph R. (Russell?) Barbee Rev. Joseph R. Barbee b 18 July 1815, Bourbon Co KY, d 9 Sept 1892 Cynthiana, Harrison Co., KY. Married ca 1834 Margaret A. Lemon b 12 May 1816 Scott County KY, d 24 Dec 1891. Both are buried in Battle Grove Cemetery, Cynthiana,Harrison Co., KY. Rev.(Baptist Preacher) Joseph R. Barbee and Margaret A. Lemon were the parents of possibly 14 children:

1. Mary E. Barbee m Alexander "Con" Casey
2. Josephine "Josie" Barbee m Hugh Newell Craigmyle
3. John L. Barbee never married, died in Civil War, Battle of Dranesville
4. Joseph N. Barbee m Laura L. McIntire
5. James William Barbee m Susan Mary Hoffman
6. Charles Sam Barbee m Martha "Mattie" Wells (my line)
7. Margaret Ann Barbee died at 4 years of age
8. George Edward Barbee died at 2 years of age
9. Felix A Barbee m1 Virginia L. Bents m2 Barbara -?-
10. Jesse Berkley Barbee m Minnie Kilgore
11. Bettie Pulliam Barbee never married
12. Fannie E. Barbee died at 8 years of age
13. ?Winnie or Willie
14. ? Thomas Barbee

I have quite a lot of info on these children and their descendants, but have no proof as to the parents of Joseph R. Barbee. He has 2 grand children with the middle names of Russell, one boy and one girl, which leads me to the belief that Russell is Joseph's middle name. I believe his parents are Jesse Barbee and Anne Headington. NO solid proof! Jesse Barbee is mentioned as the son in the will of Joseph Barbee who was married to Leeannah -?- Barbee.

Any help appreciated.

Yes, please send the previous Barbee posts. I would be most interested.

My grandmother, Linnie Ottis Barbee Brandon, is 92 years old and still

living. I had hoped she would be able to help me in my research, but,

unfortunately, she doesn’t remember much. She is the last living child of

John Calvin Barbee b. Feb. 14, 1868 in Erath County, TEXAS and d Dec. 4, 1922

and Martha Leola Poole b. Oct. 26, 1890. John Calvin’s line traces back to

William Barbee born about 1655 in England and died 1720 in Middlesex Co.,

VA.

Any help is most appreciated.

Dear Barbee Family Researchers,

I am seeking information on my Great-Great Grandmother, Louisa Jane Barbee. She was born November 21, 1854 in Butler County, Kentucky. She was the daughter of Thomas and Judith (Johnson) Barbee both from Virginia. She married Benjamin W. Cundiff on March 14, 1881 in Kentucky. She died December 16, 1929 in Martwick, Muhlenberg County, Kentucky. Does anyone have any information about her and her ancestors? I would appreciate hearing from anyone that may have any information about the family. Many Thanks.

Am interested in finding parents (and proof of same) of Mahulda Barbee, who married Joel Walker Hunter. Also, I have been told that Mahulda is of Indian descent, can anyone confirm this for me?

Any help would be appreciated.

I will be out of town on and off for the next month, so I am not able to subscribe to your list at this time. However, I am interested in the Beat(t)ie-Barbee connection.

I have Mary Ann Barbee married William H. Beat(t)ie in Andrew Co., MISSOURI circa 1880 or so. I have the citation (Andrew Co., MISSOURI, Marriage Book #1, pg. 103) but no date.

I have Mary "Molly" Ellen Beat(t)ie married William Oscar Barbee, 16 Feb 1881 (I believe the location is Andrew Co., MISSOURI also).

Mary Ann and William Oscar Barbee are supposed to be brother and sister.

William H. Beat(t)ie and Mary Ellen Beat(t)ie are brother and sister also.

I am assembling a history of the Beatie clan and would like to converse with anyone who has these individuals in their notes. These Beaties are from Washington Co., VA originally. I am a very distant cousin of these Beaties.

Could you share with your list and direct any replies to me?

Thanks,

Joann, Riverside, CA

Does anyone connect with the following Barbees in Stanly Co, North Carolina? Allen and his brother Hiram, Abigail, Robert Seymore. Also , John Barba of Cabarrus Co, North Carolina. John witnessed the will of George Harkey abt 1826 in Cabarrus Co. Thanks. John Speight, Lilburn, GA.

I asked this question once before but I have a bit more information now so I thought I would ask it again. I am trying to find out anything I can about my father’s side of my family. Here’s the little I know now.

My father, Orvin Claude Barbee was born Apr. 26. 1929 in Westminster CA, he died in 1982. He had two sisters (Iris & Valera), a brother (D. D. a nick name) and a half sister (Joan England).

My grandfather, Claude Barbee was born about 1902 and died about 1983 near Modesto CA. He was married to Bessie Chadwick who died in the middle 1940s. Bessie had been previously married to a man named Bill England. I vaguely remember my father saying that his father’s family may have come from Arkansas or Kentucky but I am not certain of this. Bessie Chadwick had a brother in Southern California by the name of Orville Chadwick. Any help on this would be appreciated. On my mother’s side I can trace back as many as twenty generations in several directions on my family tree. On my father’s side I only recently discovered what my grandmother’s first name was. Shows just how ridiculous family feuds can get.

Thanks,

Tim

Mark,

Can you please post to this list, whatever information you may have that would show a several generation descendancy from the Revolutionary era Virginia BARBEEs you mention here. Someone may recognize a later name that they know they tie into. Thanks so much.

I personally am looking for the parents and siblings of an Edward Barbee who had a

wife Elizabeth, and was born in the 1830's, in Charlotte County, Virginia .

Thanks so much.

I wish that I could! But, that's all he has and all that he sent. He added another sentence saying that he did not know how We related to any of these guys, either.

I realize from the posts I've seen that most of the researchers on this list are having trouble struggling with getting back more than 100-150 years ago, and that's a tough period to get back past. Which is exactly why this list is so valuable! Some family names are further along and more 'organized'.

I provided these names as a sort of 'save these and someday they might be valuable' thing, the same way I posted my two generation line from the man who (apparently) was the American Immigrant in the 1600's. (I'm NOT bragging, I just got lucky on my grandmother's surname (Withers) line and it tied into the BARBEEs way back there.)

Sorry that I can't help more.

Mark

My uncle sent me a note about our BARBEEs and BRYANTs that might be useful to someone on this list:

Wilson from Official Records in the Kentucky State Land Office at Frankfort, KY, reprinted 1994 by Southern Historical Press, Inc., Greenville, SC.

On p. 11 is BRYENT, John with warrant 2139 and a BRYANT, William with warrant 2394. On p. 12 is a BRYANT, William with warrant 2964. On p. 13 is BARBEE, John with warrant 3178; BARBEE, Joshua (3179); BARBEE, William (3180) and BARBEE, Daniel (3181) and a BRIANT, James with warrant 3343.

Sirena Barbee’s parents with three sons came from England and settled in Orange Co., NC where she was born 1814. She m. Job B. Garner about 1831 and settled in Lawrence Co., TN where she died in 1902. (In 1836 in Lawrence Co., TN there was a young woman,Nancy F. Barbee, whose mother, Hilary, signed her marriage certificate to Lewis Higgs. Could these be kin to Sirena?) If you recognize any of these or know about the Orange Co., NC Barbees, please let me hear from you.

Thanks! Dean

I continue to search for any BARBEE reasearchers who have come across my Sirena Barbee.

Sirena BARBEE born April 23 1814 Orange Co NC and d. Sept 7 1902 Lawrence Co TN she married ca 1831 in Lawrence Co TN to Jobe GARNER.

I have some very old notes that say she had 3 brothers and that they came from England, but I have no source for this info.

Sirena named her oldest daugher Delana Elizabeth Garner.... Elizabeth was Jobe’s mothers name so I wonder if Sirena BARBEEs mother might be named Delana.

Appreciate any help

Have a Happy Holidays

I am looking for any information about Barbees in Southern California, particularly Orvin Claude Barbee (my father d. abt. 1981 b. abt. 1930 in Westminster CA) and his father who had the same name or one very similar to it. My father’s mother was a woman whose last name was Chadwick (or so I’ve been told), she died when he was about 14. My father had one sister named Iris and another whose name I can’t recall.

Other Info: My father’s father had a brother named Orville who also lived in

So. Cal. and a cousin named John who lived in the same area as well as

several other cousins in the So. Cal area.

It might seem ridiculous that I don’t know more about my dad and his family but he had a major falling out with them and refused to talk about them. At this point I am unable to contact any of his family as I don’t know where they currently are. Any help would be appreciated.Thanks

I belong to a Barbee genealogy forum on the internet. I have sent out queries requesting information on your grandfather, Thomas G. Barbee. But I have not received any replies. I cannot get past him. I know he was born in 1870 and he died Oct 1924. Once I find his parent’s I believe I will be back on my way.

I have traced my Barbee line as far as William Barbee b. between 1809 and 1814. He was born in Wilkinson Co GA. William married Elizabeth B. Young. I believe she was the daughter of Charles Young.

I found James Barbee listed on the same page as William in the Wilkinson Co GA 1840 Census. Maybe James Barbee is the father of William Barbee. James had a son listed in the 1830 census that could have been the right age for William.

I have tried to find a James Barbee born between 1780 and 1789 that may be my link. Any help?

Hi Friends,

I am in need of help with my Barbee’s. I have William BARBEE (1822-1847) who married Paulina WILLIAMS and had a daughter Elizabeth (or Mary Elizabeth) who married Granville VANDERPOOL. They were apparently in MISSOURI most of their lives except for William’s tour in the Mexican War where he died of a non-combat cause.

I have found the following and need a hand in connecting these folks to my William:

Margaret BRADFORD ( -1819) m Andrew BARBEE (1767-1813, son of John) on Nov 29, 1789 in VA (possibly Fauquire Co) or KY (Fayette Co?). They had 11 children. Margaret’s father John BRADFORD moved to KY ca 1785.

Their daughter, Elizabeth BARBEE (1796- ) m William BARBEE (relationship unknown) and moved to MISSOURI.

A William BARBEE m Elizabeth BARBEE in Fayette Co, KY on Oct 9, 1816.

I suspect but cannot prove these are the same William and Elizabeth.

My William BARBEE was born ca 1822 and married Paulina WILLIAMS on Nov 8, 1842 in Daviess Co, MISSOURI.

Is there anyone out there who can help me connect my William to William and Elizabeth. I have quite a bit on the ancestry of Margaret BRADFORD and some on the BARBEE line and will gladly share.

Thanks for your time and help,

Hello Robert,

I am descended from Charles Benjamin Barbee b. Oct 14, 1849. He was married twice. My line is from the first marriage with Mattie Cone. I have a lot of his line complete thru my generation.

I have spent at lot of time trying to find Williams parents. How are you doing in your search? If you are interested, I would like to exchange theory or facts with you. I have even gone to Twiggs and Wilkinson Counties in Georgia. I did not find much.

Talk to you soon,

Name: Melinda

Location: Florida

Barbee Line:

William Barbee b. @ 1814 m Elizabeth Young

Charles Benjamin Barbee b. Oct 14, 1849 m Mattie Cone d Dec 25, 1908

Benjamin Franklin Barbee b July 31, 1876, m Clara Rouse d Nov 3, 1956

Lota Geneva Barbee b. Oct 1, 1913 (My Grandmother)

I have not been able to go beyond William and Elizabeth. I have a theory that the father of William was James but no proof. I have been trying to go down the two old Barbee family lines to see if I can connect and so far nothing. The father of Elizabeth Young could have been Charles Young as he was living in their house late in his life and they did name a child Charles.

I have talked to others on my line and they are stumped as well. If anyone has any information please know that you will make my new year great.

Melinda

Melinda - dates and places? I cannot connect with the two "standard" Barbee lines either. I have some Young connections in NC and KY (but not with my Barbees).

Thanks.

Am doing research on William Hawes Barbee b 28 Feb 1775 in Front Royal, VA. m Mary Jones b 1 Feb 1775. Marriage date 26 Dec 1794. They moved to Franklin Co., Ohio in 1818. They had 13 children: Agnes b 14 Sep 1796;

Susannah b 14 Aug 1798; John b 21 Mar 1800; Mary b 25 Mar 1802 (married Eli Spangler); Franklin b 18 Jun 1804 (2 marriages - #1 Margaret Adams, #2 Lucinda Merriss); William b 18 jun 1806; David b 8 Dec 1807 (married Mary Haughn); Elizabeth b 4 Aug 1811 (married Thomas John Adams); Lucinda b 29 Jul 1813; William Hawes Jr. b 21 Jul 1815 (married Mary Ann Rowles);

Katherine b 7 Jun 1819; Joseph b 21 Jan 1820; and Eli b 26 sep 1822 (married Rebecca Marsh).

Wm died 20 Mar 1860 in Columbus, Ohio and Mary died 24 Mar 1851. Some of these children stayed in Columbus, Ohio area while others went to Illinois.

Would like to hear from descendants of this particular line.

I am now scratching together the descendants of Hawes Barbee, Sr. and can e-mail anyone who would like a GEDCOM file. Hawes moved to Franklin County, Ohio in 1818 and most of his children stayed in the area for 40 or more years.

Am interested in obtaining any info from others relating to these Barbee’s.
