William Hiram Barber is the missing brother (I am sure now) William of Melancthon, Nathaniel, Betsy, and the little brother Richard who died young. Their mother was Elizabeth Bartholomew (Betsy) and their father was supposed to be a Jonathan Barbour (sp?). Nathaniel was born in Washington County, NYin 1822 and grew up in Steuben County, NY. Hiram'sdescendants think William Hiram was born in 1823 in Steuben County, NY. Melancthon's civil war records and pension file doesn't mention his birth place. Melancthon died in the Civil War. What do you have?
