Does anyone know this family? I would love to have contact with a living descendant. I am descended from Lee Judson Barbee's wife's sister and am compiling a book that I hope can include updated data on this Barbee branch. Included below is some new data from Akron, Ohio death certificate information. Please copy to my personal email if you have any information whatever. Thanks very, very much.
