You are viewing the web pages of Jesse L Barnett in Evansville,
Indiana!
The initial intent of this page is to disseminate genealogy information pertaining to the Barnetts of Scot-Irish descent (aka Ulster-Scots). I am gradually adding information on my other ancestors named below.
It is believed most of the information provided is accurate. However, due to the number of hands it passes through, there are no guarantees (not to mention mistakes I make during the merging process.). The likelihood of errors is one of the prime reasons for this site........ to get input from others. When I do get conflicting information or suspect something is amiss, I will attempt to make obvious notations. Which brings up a point.....when looking at the individual's information, take special note of a number, prefixed with the letter "N". This number indicates a note for that person, and is a link to that page, which will include notes for others. So, be sure to read the correct note field that is unique to that person. Please feel free to contact me to report errors, suspected and otherwise.
I am not a researcher (at least not yet), merely a collector
of
information. I do have an acknowledgment page for those
individuals known
to
contribute, and my gratitude goes out to every one of them, as
should
yours.
Barnett
This family of Barnetts came to "The
Colonies"
from Londonderry, IR. in 1730, and initially settled in
Hanover Twp.
and
Paxtang Twp., Lancaster
County of Pennsylvania.
The
region
of, Hanover and
Paxtang/Paxton Twps., eventually became Dauphin
Co. in 1785. MORE information.
I am also starting to collect information
on my
other
ancestry. Primarily, the surnames of Bradshaw,
Brashears,
Camp,
Chambers, Kemp, Lincoln,
McDaniel,
Monroe,
Phillips, Voyles. Presently, the
information
on my FamilyTreemaker
page is based on MY ANCESTRY, and not just the descendants of
the early
Barnetts. And, is used to take advantage of the unique
capabilities of
the FamilyTreemaker site.
