Washington, D.C. 20006 December 14, 1978 Dear Alice: As they say, here goes nothing. I feel like I'm taking a test for a new job. At least, it will be easier to read, if not necessarily well organized or technically correct from the typing standpoint at least. I looked through your papers and still feel McCulloh is a hard one. I gather you have spent some years on it, so I may not be able to contribute much, but will send you whatever I pick up, even though it may be.duplication, for your disposal. I To add to your maze, am enclosing some pages from the Maxwell History and Genealogy"by Florence Wilson Houston and others. I don't tie it in to your family, but it does have a lot of names, which may be meaningful to you. Somewhere you too had a Houston. Would it be helpful to pursue any of that in her book, or are you familiar with it already? ua�y I later came across a bigger maze of names. Are you familiar with the �� publication "McCullough Memos - All Spellings" put out by W. R. Yarwood, 3' Anaheim Royal #31, 1250 N. State College Blvd., Anaheim, Calif. 92806? It appears to have started around October 1975 and the latesgone in the binder was October 1978. The eahp chap is retired and has been ill, so there was some question about how long it would continue. It contains reproduction6 of material, contributions from subscribers, queries, etc. Many, many names, o4all spellings. Very little on North Carolin& people and no reference to your family as far as I can tell from a quick review. There were two North Carolina people amon*he list of subscribers, whom you might know: a Dr. & Mrs. Harding of ChbLpel Hill and a Mrs. Colleen Cro ch of Raleigh. The penultimate issue made reference to the fact thane makes no charge for the paper, but donations have helped. A reader in an earlier issue suggested hat he might want to charge about $5.00 a year for it if he would expaand it from the size of his first few. Z The latest issue was 35 pages. The paper appears to be a monthly 7 Now to get back to more�ubstantive matters. (My running the words togethr a wil at least make me re ead this and edit the typing a bit.) I tried to zerd in on the Barefield, Baw€-i-fq Barfield, Bearfield families. While the spellings may have been distinct from each other, I found different v spellings being used for the same individuals over the years. Got excited ,c about a Lewis Barefield in Tennessee in 1830, but found it was not yours and that there were three Lewises in North Carolina at the same time - not during 1830, but living earlier at the same time of each other. In the Duplin County marriages, there were 2 or 3 Lewis, a Frederick, and Z a to hen who married Nancy House 22 Oct 1791. Later, a Lewis, Frederick, n an a Stephen s obi w�up in Tennessee rec-or s in Williamson and other counties, and Stephen Barfield°s wife is named Nancy. WI sincerely tried to organize my notes and see that it hasn't worked, but since you've been at it for a while, you can probably pick it up readily in the state it's in. Incidentally, I timed myself, after boasting to you 0 Zj that it took me half an hour to go through a roll. If the whole roll is in teed€ good condition and I don't have to stop to write anything down a because I don't find anything, it takes a full hour. I misspoke.

April 6, 1722: Richard Barefield was .awarded a land patent to 470 acres of the West side of Ahotsky March in the Province of North Carolina. February 13, 1724/25: Richard Barfield transferred 100 acres on the South side of Ahotsky March "out of Firebent's patent" to Thomas Barfield for ten pounds. This deed is recorded in the Bertie County Deeds. November 22, 1728: Richard Barefield died in Bertie County. He was survived by his wife, Mary, and sons - Richard, Isham, Solomon, James, Henry, William and Thomas - and a Grandson, Richard. The Colonial Records of North Carolina shows that Richard Barfield petitioned for warrants to 500 acres in Duplin County on November 19, 1744 and petitioned for warrants to 200 acres in Duplin County on November 24, 1744. These lands were part of the McCulloh grant. May 1, 1754: Richard Barfield Died in Duplin County North Carolina. He was survived by sons - Henry, Jesse and Solomon - and Daughters - Mary Barfield, Beth Barfield, Ann Grady and Cathren Taler - and a Granddaughter, Beth Taler. His will reads in part: "sun HENRY plantation I now live on, negor wench Cat, one Bed, to Small Dishes, 1 learge Dish, one hors; sun JESSE neger Boy Called Bob, all the Land Be Loe the Branc Being on gum Running to the Bay line, to Cow and Caves, toe Basen, toe dish, tow Chear, to Soues and piges, tow Bed and furtud; darter MARY Bed and furtute, toe Dish, toe Chear, to Cow and Caves; grandater LEBETH TALER 1 yeo; doter LEBETH one Bed and furnetuted to to year old efirs, toe Dish and t p ate, to e da er DY Soue an peges; darter CATH—REN 3'A ER Sven shil ngs; wire- no named) to potes, to chiest, 1 STI'x, one e, one tame and all the Shep, all t e ogs, son LOMON I to year old hefer extrs: sons JESSE & SOLOMON" Jesse Barfield and wife, Sarah Castillo, of Duplin County deeded gifts to his sons Solomon, John, Frederick, Lewis, Thomas, and Stephen in 1780. The Duplin County Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions Minutes for 1784 thru 1787 shows that on Wednesday, April 18, 1787, the _!�r oaw Q 1 t 4 a l4 v/ `F -o p1 F_#J% s 4/ pavi� County Public UbrarY —Page 1- Mocksville, KC It W'ourt exhibited an additional inventory of the Estate of Jesse Barfield and appointed a committee to settle the accounts of Jesse Barfield and report to the next Court. The Court also ordered Frederick Barfield, the administrator of the Estate of Jesse Barfield, to sell the perishable part of the Estate and report to the Court. On July 17, 1787, one account current with the Estate of Jesse Barfield, deceased, was exhibited by' Frederick Barfield, Administrator; the Court concurred and Ordered it filed. (This appears to be the probating and settling of Jesse Barfield's estate by his son, Frederick, and indicates that Jesse died some- time in 1787.) In other Court proceedings of the approximate time, Frederick and a Stephen were identified as Bearfield. The 1786 census of Duplin County shows both Frederick and Lewis Barfield residing in Duplin County. Residing with Lewis at that time were: three (3) white males under the age of 21, six (6) white females of various ages, and two (2) blacks. The book North Carolina Revolutionary Soldiers, Sailors, Patriots and Descendants shows Jesse Barfield as a patriot and gives the dates 1738 thru 1780 and shows that he was married to a Sara Castillo. Frederick and Lewis Barfield were quite prominent in Duplin County between 1784 and 1795 as the following analysis of refer- ences to Frederick Barfield and Lewis Barfield in the Duplin County Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions records found in the Dallas Public Library for the period 1784 thru 1795 shows. This is not an exhaustive analysis, as I noted only the more inter- esting references. I would like to point out that there were numerous other references, not only to Frederick and Lewis Barfield, but to other persons with the name Barfield. October 18, 1784: Frederick Barfield, Justice was ordered to take a list of the taxables for Captain Barfield's Company. (it appears that the county was divided into five or more "companies" each of which were named after a "captain". One of the companies in the 1780's was named Captain Barfield's Company.) Each company had a Justice of the Peace and Constable. They were probably analogous to modern day precincts in a county. The Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions for the period 1791 thru 1795 made some references to a Barfield bridge and a Barfield road. October 20, 1786: Lewis Barfield is appointed to lay out a road. April 20, 1787: Lewis Barfield is appointed a jury man. January 21, 1788: Frederick Barfield was sworn in as a Justice of the Peace. u�l,c ;..iwA D �ooKsuille� -Page 2- April 21, 1788: Deeds of 120 and 150 acres to Lewis Barfield were recorded. July 20, 1789: Lewis Barfield was ordered to be Constable of Captain Bowden's district. January 18, 1790: Nine (9) slaves were divided amon t children of James McCulloh - Pe a ope, Kat rine, and Henry. January 18, 1790: Lewis Barfield sold a negro slave to Frederick Barfield. January 8, 1791: Lewis Barfield married Catharine McCulloh. January 17, 1791: Lewis Barfield is appointed to the Grand Jury. July 18, 1791: Frederick Barfield, esq. was a member of the County Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions. / January, 1792: Frederick Barfield is named as the adminis- trator of the estate of Jessie Barfield who had an orphaned minor child named Soloman. July 15, 1793: Steven Barfield and Frederick Barfield are named Justices. July 21, 1794: Lewis Barfield served on the Grand Jury. The 1850 Census of Winston County Mississippi shows a Lewis Barfield, age '82, and wife Catharine, age 76 (both of whomwere orn in North Carolina), wing wit a on, ohn, age 39. Living with, or next oor to, Lewis Barfield were Henry Barfield, age 52, and wife Elizabeth, age 43 (who were born in North Carolina and South Carolina, respectively), along with their children: William, Thomas, Mary, Charles Lewis, John Fletcher, Catharine, Henry, Sar-ah,'Alfred, and Napoleon. Also .shown on the 1850 census r 2 in Winston County at that time were Jessee, Thomas, and Willis Barfield. Davis County Public Library Mooksvilla, NC -Page 3- HISTORY OF THE BARFIELD FAMILY 61 PadAe� ' Early in the eighteenth century there came with other emigrants from England two brothers named Barfield. The older was a bachelor and the younger was a man of family. The elder soon returned to England, and the younger settled near Newborn, North Carolina. I have no authentic record of the Christian names of these.brothers, but the wife of the one who remained was named Mary. They had a large family, and presumably some of the sons remained in the vicinity of Newborn, as some of the younger generation were merchants in that city when my mother was a girl. One son, Richard, went to Georgia, and during the war for independence, that branch of the family developed decided Toryism. The North Carolina Barfields, being strong Whigs, cut the acquaintance of these Georgia kinsfolk, so came to know very little about them and to care less. My great grandfather, Jesse Barfield, a son of the emigrant, lived in Samson County, North Carolina, and there my grandfather, Lewis Barfield, was raised. One of the emmigrant's daughters, named Mollie, married Solomon Jones. One (I do not know her Christian name) married a Grady. Catherine married William Taylor, a large land -owner, and lived in Duplin County, North Carolina. .J Jesse, the great grandfather before referred to, married Sarah Castelo, _daughter of Thomas Castelo, an Irishman. To Jesse and Sarah Barfield were �1 born nine children, seven of which reached maturity - Frederic, Stephen, Charity, Solomon, Lewis (who was my grandfather), John, and Thomas. Frederic i^ was twice married. One of his daughters, Susan - by the first marriage - married Needham Bryan, and about 1836 moved from Tennessee to Alabama. Some C of their children used to visit my grandfather. •I remember having seen cousins Nathan, Needham, and Nancy. There were kinsfolk that we were proud of. DavieCountY Public Liter ary j' Mooksvitie, NC 2. After his marriage, Great Uncle Frederic lived in Tennessee near Stone River. During the Revolutionary War, when he was quite a young man and still living in North Carolina, he and his brother Soloman were fired upon by some of their Tory neighbors. He was seriously wounded and Soloman was shot down, mortally wounded. Frederic managed to get home, leaving his brother, as he thought, dead. Late in the night the family heard someone moan#g as if in distress. Some of them went out to investigate and found Solomon crawling slowly and painfully toward the house. They carried him in and did what they could to relieve his sufferings, but he died before morning dawned. Frederic recovered and lived many years, suddenly dying of apoplexy. Stephen, the second son, married my grandmother's only sister, Penelope McCulloh. She died, leaving an infant daughter who died at the age of ten years. Stephen's second wife was a Miss Nancy Howse, and the Costelo Barfield who used to correspond with me is their grandson. He lived in Lexington, Kentucky. Charity - Aunt "Chelly" - married Theophilus Williams. My Grandfather, Lewis Barfield, married Catherine McCulloh. John was of a roving disposition, hard to satisfy. He came to Alabama and remained with Grandfather for a while, but returned to Tennessee. Later he rambled off and the relatives lost all trace of him for several years and had given him up as dead. After my own Uncle Thomas Barfield went to Yazoo County to live he heard that there was a feeble old man by the name of Barfield in a town some distance away. Uncle Thomas visited the place and found the feeble old man to be his long -lost uncle. Like the good Samaritan, he supplied his needs and hired an attendant for him, intending to remove him to his own house as soon as the invalid would be strong enough to be moved. But the poor old man never rallied, and died in a few days. Davin County -Library Mocksville, NC 3. Thomas, the youngest of Jesse and Sarah Barfield's children, lived. in Kentucky, not far from Bowling Green. His son, Lewis, used to bring horses to Alabama for sale and made my grandfather's his headquarters. In the autumn of 1836 his father accompanied him to Alabama and though I was only a little girl of ten, I entered heartily in the pleasure Grandfather felt in having his baby brother with him again after years of separation. My three-year old brother, John, being -told that his uncle was from Kentucky, called him "Uncle Tuckin". Jesse Barfield, the father of the family a sketch of which is written in the foregoing pages, died near the close of the war while driving beef cattle to the Patriot Army. He was taken suddenly ill and died away from home, although it was but a few miles distant. After his death the mother lived with her oldest son, Frederic. She had the misfortune to lose her eyesight when he was an infant, and although she was the mother of nine children, he was the only one whose features she ever saw. She lived to be ninety years old and was ever cheerful and apparently happy. Catherine Taylor, a daughter of the emmigrants,(as before mentioned) lived in Duplin County, North Carolina. She had two daughters. Sarah married John Rhodes. Mary married James McCulloh, who was born and reared in the city of London, England. Being left an orphan in infancy, he was brought up by his paternal grandparents, who belonged to the nobility. We, his descendants, do not boast -of that, however, but -glory in the fact that we are Americans, consequently we are all Sovereigns. James. McCulloh came to America and located in Duplin County, North Carolina. When leaving England his aunt, Amy McCulloh, told him that she would remit to him fifty pounds sterling each year. She did this until his death. As aforesaid, he married Mary Taylor, and'to this union were born three children, viz., Penelope, Catherine (who was my grandmother), and Henry. Davie County Public Library Mooksville, NC 4. Penelope, as you will remember, married Stephen Barfield, a brother of Lewis Barfield, who married Catherine. Mary (Taylor) McCulloh, my great grandmother, died when her children were quite young and they were raised by their maternal grandmother, Catherine Taylor. James McCulloh married again. There were four children brom this second marriage - Elizabeth, Amy, Alfred, and .Penelope, so you see he had two daughters with the same name. My grandmother's sister had died long before the half-sister was born, however. Grandfather McCulloh lived after his marriage in Roan County, about two hundred miles north of Duplin. He visited Grandmother once every seven years until he became too feeble to travel, and then Grandmother would visit him, making the entire trip on horseback. During the war, and while my Grandmother was a little girl, some British soldiers, accompanied by a gang of Tories, made a raid on the Taylor plantation, and as William Taylor was some miles away watching his valuable horses, which he had hidden in a dense swamp, his wife, Catherine Taylor, had no one to defend her against the insolence of the soldiers, and they pillaged to their hearts' content. One soldier attempted to take some bed- clothes, but Mrs. Taylor clung to them and told him that he would not have them as they were needed for the comfort of her grandchildren, who were then sick with measles. Then the soldier drew his sword to intimidate her, but she resolutely held on until an officer ordered the soldier to desist. During the fracas, Mrs. Taylor's mother, who was very old and feeble, became so frightened that she shook as with an ague. Before taking their leave the soldiers collected the large flock of sheep belonging to the plantation, intending to take them all away, but on Mrs. Taylor's remonstrating and proposing to give one sheep to each officer and soldier, the officer in command agreed to her proposition, and selecting a sheep apiece, they retired. One soldier, however, took an extra lamb. a 5. A few years after the close of the war in 1776 an awful tragedy was enacted in the Taylor family. William Taylor was murdered by one of his own slaves, named Darby. He was arrested, tried and condemed to be burned, which sentence was duly executed in the public square at the county seat. Catherine Taylor survived her husband a good many years, and died about the close of the century, her oled mother, the emmigrant, having died several years before. My grandmother was an important link in the traditionary ,'chain through which I obtained many of these facts set forth in these pages. She was intimately associated with her great-grandmother in her girlhood, and I was, perhaps, more closely associated with her (my grandmother) until I had a family of my own. Grandmother's brother, Henry, died in early manhood. His property was in his father's hands, and though Grandmother had a legal right to it, she felt that he needed it more than she did and allowed him to retain it. After Great-grandmother Taylor's death, the estate went to my Grand- mother as the only surviving heir. Grandfather Lewis Barfield disposed of his home in Samson County and went to Duplin County to live on the Taylor estate inherited by his wife. There all their children were born excepting the three oldest. There my mother was born and lived until some thirteen years of age. Some of the Rhodes family, thinking they had discovered a slight irregularity in the title of the estate, entered suit for possession, and after much litigation and the spending of a great amount of money, Grand- father compromised with the Rhodes, they paying him $1,000. in cash. He then went to Roan County and remained two years. Thence to Tennessee and lived near his brother Frederic on Stone River. •Two years later he went to Alabama, having bought a tract of valuable land in the cane -brake region of that state. His sons could not adapt themselves to their environments and Davie County Public library Mooksville, NC 6. became so much dissatisfied that they finally induced Grandfather to exchange land with Mr. Zack Green, who owned a -tract of poor, sandy land some miles farther south in the same (Marengo) county. About two years after this, that young teacher appeared on the scene of action and gave a coloring to all the after life of at least one of the inmates of the home of Lewis and Catherine Barfield. After my father and mother were settled in their home Grandfather bought land in the southern part of Perry County and lived there until the autumn of 1839. He then came -to Winston County, Mississippi, where he resided until after Grandmother's death. The home in Perry County is the one where we used to congregate at least once a year. His home in Mississippi was pleasant, but was never quite so dear to me as the Alabama home where I spent so many happy hours of my child- hood. After Papa's death we went back to Winston County, Mississippi, and there our dear mother, with what assistances we older children could give, struggled under adverse circumstances to rear her little flock in the fear and admonition of the LORD. Sister Jane taught school for a while in the home neighborhood, then came to this part of the state and took charge of a school not far from where Bethel Church now stands. Her boarding place was on that little rise on the south side of Jackson Road, just beyond the church as you go west. She married Dr. Arnel F. Adair, and lived in that vicinity until the latter part of 1846. They then went to Attala County, and in January 1849 moved to Texas. Sister visited me in the summer of 1848, and I saw her no more for forty-four years. In 1892 I visited her in her Texas home. In March, 1846, I was solicited to teach a school in the southern part of Kemper County. My patrons insisted that I shodld board around among them, free of charge, and I found the arrangement to be very satisfactory and Davie County Public Library Mooksville, NC 7. pleasant. They were all so kind to me, and I am sure that I won not only the respect, but also the love, of most of my pupils. I really enjoyed teaching that school. December 13, 1846 I was married to Charles E. Hughes in the church at Old Daleville, by the pastor, Reverend Walton J. Reeves. We lived with father and Mother Hughes until February 8, 1848, on which date we went to housekeeping in our little log cabin in the woods. (By the way, that-was-:..ust sixty years ago today.) In that room all my children, except the oldest, were born. In 1850 my mother and the children still remaining with her moved to Texas, and I never saw any of them again except Sister Jane. After Dr. Adair's death, Sister Jane with her three little children, lived with mother and taught school most of the time, and in this way, not only helped to provide for herself and little ones, but educated our younger sisters. After almost three years of widowhood, she married Jacob Colvin. She still taught occasiona-ly, and after Mr. Colvin's death followed this vocation most of the time. In this way she was enabled to give her three Adair children and her two Colvin children a pretty fair common school education. Dore, her youngest child, began when quite young to teach in the public schools, and later attended the high school at Huntsville, Texas. Sister Jane died January 31, 1894. *One was Louisa Anna Craig who married John Henry Gore - my greath grandparents.

I've searched, in vain, and hope to buy the book when it is printed. I have spent my time helping about 25 other people find lines the past few years and have no time for anything now. (The 25 for DAR membership). In a family Bible (dated in the 1850's) which belonged to Thomas C. Barfield is an old family record on paper dated (printed date) 1899. Penelope daughter of James and Mary McCulloh was born Sep. 16th 1773• Catharine daughter of James and Mary McCulloh was born Feb. 11th 1775. Henry son of James and Mary McCulloh was born July 8th 1777. Catharine Barfield died Nov. 27th 1852 Lewis Barfield died May 6th 1854 Both Catherine and Lewis are buried in Yazoo County. I do not know exactly where, but I feel that they lived with Grandpa Tommy because Lewis' death is recorded in his Bible, although Catherine's was not. Tommy came to Miss. in the 1830's and married Mercy Louisia Leonard White when she was 16. They moved to Hempstead Co. Ark. and stayed there 3 or 4 years and returned to Yazoo Co. Lewis was in Yazoo Co. at the time (1840 census). Tommy and Mercy lived in the Free %m area which is north Yazoo County near the Holmes Co. line. He was one of 5 founders of the Rocky Springs Baptist Church in the 1860's and was a very devout man. My grandfather John Clark McCormack was another of the 5. You did not ask me for help with Mary Craig but I assume you want what I know since you wrote about her. She and her descendants were in Colorado at the time of my g. grandmother Rebecca Barfield McCormack's death in 1925- Mary Craig was Rebecca's aunt and Rebecca (called Beck) had a sister named Mary Craig (called Molly) for their Aunt Mary. My grandmother McCormack died several years before I was born, but my Aunt Mae, who died in 1957 had all of her papers and we found all of this information at that time. No one kept up with them after 1925. As soon as I have time to get all my Barfield info out, a newly 3 found Barfield cousin who lives about 100 miles from here who says she has McCulloh also wants to come see what I have. My mother '7 corresponded with a Roger Gore of Lubbock, Texas who first told us about Catherine's half brother and sister and a story about some aunt in England sending James McCulloh a stipend each year. I remember all of this. Mother has been dead over 10 years. Davis County PublicLr. Alooksville brary . NC COPY -P2 s Although I know Tommy had brothers and sisters, I've never explored those lines.

A separate sheet of questions is en- closed leaving space for a reply underneath, and an SASE. Congratulations on your eledtion as DAR State Regent. Our library genealogy shelves would be pretty bare without the contributions from various DAR chapters. Alice Eidson is the originator of the i4cCulloh research and plans to publish. We became acquainted by mail in 1976 and have been working together since that time when she asked that I help gather the line- age of Charles Granville McCulloh. Then, like Little Eva, it just grew. Alice ' and I hope to meet face to face one daye ccording to files, Mary Barfield Craig was born in 1803. Were you #riting of her being in Colorado in 1925 (age 122) or just some of ler descendants? Roger Gore was out of Louisa Anna Craig and ohn H. Gore. I could not find them in Texas 1900 soundexe apparently, there are still many Barfield descendants in Texas. Lewis and Catherine IMcCulloh Barfield had several children and I have been unable to locate some of them in an 1840 census. These are: lo Alfred ( Matilda) Barfield 2. Mary Barfield -John Craig 3. Sarah Barfield -Thornton Vaught 4, John P . W. ( Nancy) Barfi eld Penelope McCulloh and Stephen Barfield had a daughter who died at about age 10. Apparently Penelope and Henry McCulloh died young as James also named children from the second marriage Penelope and a Henry. There is a lot of information about Stephen Barfield and rt- his second wife Nancy House Barfield in records of Williamson Co., Tn. Id � Would you mind letting me know when the Barfield cousin plans to -- visit you and you have your Barfield information ready to show her? There are probably other things that I would like to know when your records are available. In the meantime, I would like to correspond with the Barfield cousin concerning the McCullohs.

I notice you stated that your McCulloh search was "in vain". It is too bad that Catherine did not re- late her paternal heritage, or write it down for future genera- tions. If she did, apparently it has not surfaced. Our country has suffered two very destructive wars so I suppose we are fortunate that any records survived. One war leader - either revolutionary or civil - replied, "That's the way things are done in a civilized country", when questioned why records, court buildings, etce were destroyed during a conflict.

It would be impossible for me to get the old records without a trip to an archives and that always seems to be out of the question. I'm sure you have received the latest Barfield information by now. I still have some gaps on some of the children of Lewis and Catharine but have started some more lists as to where they may be found. So many of them are missing for the same census year, 1840. I have read through all the wills and inventories included in your letter of April 10th and will try to make some coherent comments. Catherine Barfield named as the grandaughter of Catharine Taylor must be Catherine McCulloh Barfield, wife of Lewis. Penelope had married and died by 22 Oct. 1791 when widower Stephen Barfield married Nancy House. That means their child would have been born in 1790 at the latest, and dying at age 10 would probably already have been dead when Catharine Taylor made her will. Catharine McCulloh married Lewis Barfield in 1791 and would legally be Catharine Barfield when C. Taylor made her will. Does this make sense to you? No, you didn't send me copies of deeds of land from Henry E. McCulloh or his agent to James McCulloh. Wish I did have them, then I could send you a copy since you can't find your originals. Amy McCulloh: Do you suppose Airy McCulloh could be James' daughter who married the~Scof McCulloch? I haven't come across an Amy anywhere other than in the Barfield History sent to you. Ireland in the time of the McCullohs was an undivided country with Catholic and Protestant in both areas of north and south. North was predominantly protestant and south was predominantly Catholic but the country was not divided into Northern Ireland and Irish Republic until 1921 (think this date is right - from memory). Right, I looked it up; Irish Free State was formed in December of 1921. If we could locate "Grogan" then you would know for sure in which area to -� check on James and offspring. Henry could have been Anglican and Penelope Catholic. If you will send me the name and location of the church where they were married I will try to determine which denomina- tion it is. Incidentally, the two young children of Henry, Sec.of _- Prov., who were christened and buried at St. John's ... St. John is in -; my guidebook but denomination is not given - style is Baroque. It '= is located in Westminster (meaning west. side) area of London, not very far south of Westminster Abbey (Anglican). Close to Thames River. t Davis County Public Ubrar. Mocksvilie, NC Q -2- On 11 Aug. 1787 when William Taylor's estate was divided, John Rhodes received the part deeded to his wife, Elizabeth, during William Taylor's lifetime. This consisted of one-half of: household furniture plantation tools and stock. that the house and grounds were not divided at that time and It seems g widow Catharine had possession.Ap 'se Taylor McCulloh was dead by 1787 - implied by deed of gift to'James McCulloh's children and subsequent remarriage to Elizabeth 0 My thought is that the slaves were not divided among the children until they became of age. Apparently the plantation land was divided between John Rhodes and Henry McCulloh before Catharine Taylor died. The acreage of 500 and 300 acres are listed on the inventory, then crossed out. Catharine Taylor's will indicates that she had only household items and some stock - no land- to leave her grandchildren. Barfield History states that after living on the Taylor Estate some 13 years (her mother was born there c. 1803 and lived on the estate until she was some 13 years old), that the Rhodes entered suit for possession. I can see how confusion can arise in instruments that contain very little punctuation. Above, for instance, John Rhodes received one-half of William Taylor's estate which could have been read, household furniture, plantation, tools and stock. The division seems to clarify that it was "plantation tools" and not one-half of the plantation that he was to receives On page 5 of Barfield History, the writer stated that Henry McCulloh died in early manhood. Legal right to his property belonged to Catharine McCulloh Barfield but that Catharine left it in the hands of her father, James McCulloh as she felt that he needed it more than she did and allowed him to retain it". Do you suppose this means the 400 acres that Henry Received from the Taylor estate? (notice that capital R in Received?-- I've been reading too many old docu- ments that capitalize all major words). I suppose that Henry, being the male heir, received the land while Catharine received personal effects. Henry, not named in his grandmother Catharine Taylor's will, was omitted either because he had already received his part, or had died by 1800. Do you have a death date for him? I had better leave Barfield-McCulloh before I get even more confused. Jimmie, Gene's dad, is still undergoing dental work. He had 2 teeth ea pulled and two capped last Monday: He will have partials on the lower teeth and full uppers. He is to go again tomorrow - I mean Monday - for more to be pulled. I think he has about 6 left. � o Cl - ,7N If nothing comes up, we have tentative plans for a trip to Tulsa v the following Tuesday. We must get up there to talk with the one 00 aunt, and see if we can console the other. Aunt Sadie is calling us every other day and called twice yesterday. She is more mentally confused every day and I don't know how long she can go on like this. I called the nursing home to see how she stands on their waiting list and she has moved up a lot. The home had one bed but two people in line for it and Mr. Pasquier said if they did not take it, Sadie could have it. He didn't call so I am sure one of them accepted the room. Sadie needs the room so desperately,_ and the sister with whom she lives, needs to have her leave. We xxxxft can't wish that two people would leave this world so Sadie could have their room but that is about the only way one ever comes available. A . .. r Copy of letter to Mrs. O'Hare, lineage of Thomas C. Barfield, is enclosed. With luck perhaps we will get a reply. I am sending you a copy so you will know what the score is in case you should hear directly from her. When I get as much on the Barfield-McCulloh clan as I can, I hope to type up the family sheets and send them to you. Have you decided upon a numbering system yet? Love, r THE BARFIELD FREEMAN CONNECTION IN VAN ZANDT COUNTY Henry M. Barfield, Sr., born December 28, 1798 in Duplin County, North Carolina was the son of Lewis and Catharine Barfield. The 1850 U.S. Census of Winston County, Mississippi shows Lewis to be 82 years old and Catharine to be 76. Living with them was a son, John, age 39 who was a Baptist Minister. At that time, Henry Sr. was married to Elizabeth (date of death unknown), age 43, and had 10 children: William (age 18), Thomas (age 18), Mary (age 16), Charles Lewis (age 14), John Fletcher (age 12), Catharine (age 11), Henry (age 8), Sara (age 6); Alfred (age 3) and Napoleon (age 11 months). According to his obituary, Henry Sr. married a McLeod in 1829. This was probably Elizabeth. He later was married to Kate H. McLeod who was born January 2, 1840. Henry Sr. died December 22, 1883, and Kate died May 20, 1885. Both are buried in the Wesley Chapel Cemetary in Van Zatndt County near the Four Mile Prairie where they farmed. Henry M. Barfield, Jr. was born in Winston County, Missis- sippi, December 28, 1841; he came to Texas with his parents in 1850, and settled in Smith County, where he was raised and educa- ted. In 1867 he moved to Van Zandt County and became a member of the M.E. church South. On the 24th of October, 1872, he married A Miss Elizabeth A. Causey. He died at his home October 14, 1911. "a He had no children. He is buried in Wesley Chapel Cemetary. Thomas Barfield married and had three children: Burrel, Rona, and Thomas.

He died after the war from wounds received in the war. Charles Lewis Barfield was born in Perry County, Alabama, November 10, 1835, moved with his parents in 1836 to Mississippi, where he resided until 1850 when he came to Texas, settling first in Smith Countv near Bullard. Accompanied by his two brothers, John Fletcher, and Alfred M., he came to Van Zandt County in 1867, and located on Four Mile Prairie, where they bought considerable land, and later moved to Wills Point. He was married in 1887 to Miss Alice Draper, a daughter of E.B. Turner. He enlisted in the Confederate army, June 10, 1861, entering the Third Texas Calvary, Greer's regiment, and served until May, 1865. He was in Ross' brigade, and was an active participant in the war, serving in Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Georgia, and other Southern States, and was in more than fifty battles during the war. He was a valiant soldier and served the Confederacy with distinction and honor. He was a steward of the Methodist church. He lived in Van Zandt fourty-five years. He died July 26 and was buried at Wesley Chapel Cemetary. Mary Barfield married Mr. Hardy and had seven children: Hugh, Mattie, Katherine, Charles, Frank, Henry, and Russell.

John Fletcher Barfield was born March 27, 1838, and died December 28, 1917. He was married to Miss Izora H. Ruff February 1, 1882. They had five children: Wilton, born November 19, 1882; Cora, born September 14, 1885, and died September 28, 1885; Grover Cleveland, who lived only 2 months; and twins who were born dead. He served in the Confederacy, during the Civil War, and received the Medal of Valour. War Department records show that John Fletcher Barfield, private, Company D, 17th Regiment Texas Cavalry (Moore's Regi- ment), Confederate States Army, enlisted March 1, 1862, at Larissa, Texas, at the age 24 years. He was captured at Arkansas Post, Arkansas, January 11, 1863, imprisoned at Camp Douglas, Illinois, and was received by the Confederate Agent at City Point, Virginia, April 6, 1863, for exchange.

Mocksville, NG 0 1. 9415 Primrose Shreveport, La. 71118 March 219 1984 Dear Alice, Here is some more information on the Barfields. Some I couldn't tie in but it may fit later on as we get deeper into it. I assume Pauline Craig who married Charles E. Hughes is the one ` who compiled the Barfield History. I have been trying to document what she wrote - some of the dates seem to be a little off but that is to be expected. I can't reconcile her information that Jesse's father was the immigrant. She stated that the immigrant's son Richard went to Georgia and was 'blotted out', so to speak, by the rest of the family due to his support of Toryism. This means that Jesse would have had a brother named Richard. Richard was not named as a son in the older Richard's will but he may have been disinherited due to the above. There was a Richard Barfield, 1754- 1812, who was a private from Ga• in the Rev. War but but.these dates seem too late to be Jesse's brother. I checked a little in the Georgia books but didn't come up with anything. Will try again another times A search of several immigration and passenger-.- bookd didn't have any Barfields who were familiar. There were 2 men in the 1600s but no Richard .... $izaxx tzx1-wdxx(sorry - I already put that in the above paragraph.) Trying to type. this from old notes. You mentioned a CLICK family name that I had not heard before. You will notice that Thomas C. Barfield and 2 Click families were in Sevier Co., Ark. at the same time. I haven't had any luck in finding our John Craig yet in Ark. - there were none listed in Sevier or Hempstead Co. How does the Click family fit in? Re. dnclosed information on Sampson Co. Wills: George and Blake Barfield were names of sons of Frederick Barfield, according to information in Rutherford County (Ten.) Cemetery Records, but I wonder whether they could be his grandsons because of the dates? I wish we had a chance to get together and compare notes, fill in some of the blanks and determine just which area needs the most research. I go off onto related lines at times because they will often give a clue to what we are looking for. It is easier to write it all down then than try to relocate it later on. After you publish, maybe we could sell our EXCESS, ha:iii There are so many questions that come to my mind when I read the memoirs, histories and other information that has been collected but it is hard to put them all down. What I started doing as a novice,as I had absolutely no knowledge as to how to go about all this genealogy business, was to make a sheet on each single name. I put down everything I located on that person and later rewrote it in chronologic order. Each source of information was given a number, a master list made and the corresponding number was put alongside each bit of information on that person. It saved me from hav ing to write the source each time. February 28, 1984 Dear Alice, Here is some information that I located at the library yesterday. You already have Henry and Lewides info but found Jessie, son of Lewis. The information on James Barfield (Rebecca) that I sent last time from Alabama Records would apps$ appear to be the eldest son of Lewis, don't you think? Lewis was administrator, and also a buyer at the estate sale. I think his daughter (Lewis) married Thornton Vaught 4 Nov. 1826 in Marengo Co., Ala. The dates fit in with other marriages of that time and place. I will look for the Vaughts in the 1850 Miss. census as it may be the whole family moved there. The Barfields moved to Texas after the 1850 census was taken. I've found some marriages of Barfield and Craig but have not bean able to tie them in, with the exception of Henry's daughter S.J. (Sarah Jane) who married H.H. Holcomb 1 Mazy May 1877 in Van Zandt Co., Tx. Plan to look at 1860 Microfilm in Smith Co. Tex. in the Bullard area the next time I go to the library which will probably be next Monday. I'm enclosing some of the &apf-le±d information from the Parish Register of Christ Church, Middlesex Co., Va. There is a great deal more on Rar€igilds but I tried to concentrate on the William with a possible three marriages- 1. Jochabed, 2. Constance, 3. Elizabeth. Naturally, the dates we would most want to verify are the ones that are messed up in the records. Looks like one of the rectors was trying to catch up posting them and did not include the year performed. If you are able to verify any of them being Jincy's ancestors, I will look again and try to pick out her line. Just am not sure about William and Elizabeth being her grandparents. If the dates for the marriage and children of Constance Vause are correct, then Josiah possibly would have been born early 1700s. Jincy was born 1794 so there are quite a few years to cover. No reply yet from Agner. She and associates may have been just trying to find out hovf(nuch you know. Time to get ready for a permanent. Have an invitation to an out- of-town Saturday wedding and want to look xxama "pert" as possible. If there is anything that you specifically would like me to con- centrate on, let me know. Love, Public library Davie County Mocksville, NO -2- After 2- After reading the Barfield History, I thought that perhaps the Lewis Barfield that I found in Duplin in 1800, 1810 and 1820 wu our Lewis but the number of males and females and age groups just don't go with the record furnished you. The fact that he was shown as Lewis, Jr. dich't necessarily mean that he was the son of Lewis, either, as he could have been named for an uncle and the Jr. put after his name to distinguish between them as was the custom there. The 1830 Alabama census is the first definite place that I have been able to place Lewis and his family. I wish you could get into the homes that you want to. Some people jealously guard what they have and will not share it with anyone, even though they have no idea of ever publishing. Ingrained selfish- ness, I suppose. Sadie McC gave Charles G.'s letter to Mother and that is the reason we have it. It was thoughtful of her to do that. Mother had to move so many times that we are lucky to still have it. I think the Morgans in Texas may have more than they acknowledge as their mother was from the first marriage. We have always had a very good relationship with them and never thought of them as any- thing but full relatives. I think that it just didn't mean as much to them as things were stored in the attic and silverfish, etc. got into the old pictures. Yuu can tell that a little from the photo they sent you of their grandmother, Mary Jo. Dunaway. I don't know whether Aunt Vic got anythitg of her folks. Pauline, her daughter, didn't have any children. Charlie's son is the one who will not answer any of my letters. That is his only child. Mac's daughter Betty is the only one who gave me any information on that side of our family. Dock McC and Mother seemed to get along fine. He planned to visit her but became ill and was never able to make the trip. One time he sent her $10.00 - guess out of friendship, I suppose - and she bought a locket with it. I have it now. Mother mentioned that there had been hard feelings between some of the family and that is why some of them spelled their names differently. She didn't know any of the details but she must have -heard it from either her father or from James' family when she went there to visit. I`m so glad that you were able to get Alfred's bed back. You wrote once that h you hoped to. Gene has some things from his father's side of the family and we have discussed what to do with them when we are no longer around. There is no one in his line of Bowman cousins that he feels deserves them and he has decided to donate them on a permanent loan to a museum. These are from Rosedown Plantation in St. Francisville, La. I have a square table that had belonged to Daddy. He had given it to a cousin and the cousin later gave it to& Jane, my oldest sister. I imagine that anything on Daddy's side went., to his brother and sister's families.

She gave much more than I asked and also volunteered to answer specific questions. A copy of my reply to her is also enclosed. The family chart that I sent is the same that I cleared with you before sending it on to Agner= it only goes to James. I hope she will send the name of the Barfield cousin who said that she had the McCullohs so we can write to her/him. As far as our lirle of Lewis and Catherine is concerned, I had a dry run at the library Monday. I did find a lot of information on Stephen Barfield and second wife Nancy House and am enclosing it because of his connection to Penelope. I went through just about every 1840 census index in the library but could not find some of the Barfields and Vaughts. Just don't know what happened to them. I also read through microfilm of Marengo and Perry Counties in Ala. and Winston in Miss. but they did not surface. If you have any hints, send them along and I will check them out. Ann said that Mary Craig and her descendants were in Colorado in 1925. I don't see how this could be Mary who married John Craig a.adadha as the family sheet gives a birth year of 1803 for her. That would make her 122 years old! It could be children and/or grandchildren but I have no way of checking here. Library aof the not have 1900 soundex for entire U.S. Ann co information that the Barfield relative sent you - such as James getting a "stipend" from an aunt in England. Your Barfield info indicated that both Lewis and Catherine were buried in Winston Co. Miss. It could be that Catherine was since she died in 1852 and that Lewis then went to live with Thomas C. - in Yazoo Co., where he could have died 1854. So far, no cemetery records confirm either place. Gene's Aunt Sadie arrived last Wed. in good shape. We have been to see her once. Holding back a little to see what the children will do. The son came up, and the daughter has been by and brought her some junk food. Neither called us to let us know she was coming or that she had arrived. I think they know we realize just what kind of things they are so are keeping their distance, which is fine with us. We will see that Aunt Sadie has some good food and when she is able we will bring her to the house for a visit and a good meal. Hope you are fine. Davie County Publio Ubeary Mocksville, NO
