Have been searching local Clay County Missouri Records and have found that the name "Barney" is short for Bernard. Also found Barneys brother John Pfeisterer married Barney's widow (Moriah/Maria Nelson) and helped raise Barney & Moriah's 3 sons, Joseph C., Jefferson A. and Jackson M. Pfeisterer. Is there any info. about whether or not John and Moriah Nelson had children?
