Update on 3 Barlow Brothers and a Father
Ray Barlow 11/17/04
Joseph (b. circa 1856), Franklin (b. circa 1854), and James (b. circa 1858, d. Mar. 23, 1929) were all brothers. Their father was another James (b. circa 1817) whose wife was named Mary Ann (b. circa 1835).
Frank and James married a set of sisters, Mary Jane (b. circa 1870) and Angelina (b. Mar. 8, 1856, d. Jan. 16, 1935), and Frank and Angelina had 4 children, 2 of whom survived. Those two were Daniel (b. circa 1877) and Guy (b. 1888 or 1889, d. 1971). Daniel does not appear to have ever had children. Guy had two sons, Guy Barlow Jr. and Allen Barlow. That's all I know about the Frank/Angelina branch.
My gg-grandparents were James and Mary Jane Barlow. One of their sons was A.C. Barlow (A.C. didn't stand for anything; initial names were fairly common back then), who was my great-grandfather. His wife, my great-grandmother Loma Jean McNeil, is still living (almost 87 years old). I haven't had a chance to ask her yet what she might recall about her late husband's family, but I know some of his siblings were Henry, Eva, Lu (male - possible nickname?), Arnelle (female), Lou (female), Floyd, and Ralph.
I don't know anything about Joseph Burleson Barlow, but I'd be interested to learn anything you might have on his line. Joseph, Frank, and James also had several other siblings: Pete (b. abt. 1866), Andy (b. abt. 1864), John (b. abt. 1859), and Ellen (b. abt. 1853). However, I know nothing about them beyond their names and approximate dates of birth, so I'd love to find some information about them as well. Hope this helps!
