Will forward spouses and what I have on children hopefully over the week end. Once again can't thank you enough for sharing your information on William James. Take Care and God Bless. Bernie

P.S. Cliff I do have some pictures of Moses and Hariet, Hiram and Clara, and other family members. Just haven't figured out how to send them over the internet yet. But I will. Maybe over the week end my sister is coming over and she knows more about the computer than I do. Bernie

Hi Bernie -

Thanks a million for your thoughtfulness in posting all the information about this family. I sincerely appreciate your work and generosity.

About the pictures: Yes, I would like to have copies of any photos of Barneys, spouses of Barneys, & Barney descendants. They are easy to send over the internet, but you need a scanner.

Again, thanks!

Cliff,
Thanks for posting all of the more recent history about David and Adelaide Barney, They were my Great-Grandparents -- I am a direct descendent of Fayle Barney DuPuis. You can find all of the prior infromation on the Morman geneology website "www.familysearch.com" it gives information back to the early 1500's. Also if you would like the recent family history of the Barneys I can help you out or at least put you into contact with someone who can. Also if you have in of the old family photos I would like to get a copy. Thanks again.
Courtney

Hi Courtney -

I have a (not very good) photo of Benjamin Franklin Barney (b.1832). I think I have photos of all three of his wives. Would sincerely appreciate information on the family & descendants of Edward and Fayle (Barney) Dupuis. You can e-mail me at WCBarney@aol.com. -- Cliff in Virginia
