So we know Melvina died before 1900. Marion is reported in this census as a Lodger, rather than a Son-in-law. Melvina and Marion had one child, apparently, who is reported in his grandparents household in 1910, as Willie Boatman, age 11, making him born about 1899. I have not found where he was at the time of the 1900 census, when his father was reported in his grandfather's home. Nor have I found his father in 1910.

MICAJAH BARNETT (JOSEPH, JOHN, WILLIAM) was born May 13, 1760, and died Unknown. He married JENE. She was born May 12, 1762, and died Unknown.

This could be the mother of Javan, the youngest child named in Micajah's will, whom some genealogies report (without documentation) as born 5 July 1816. Jane Glen Barnett died in 1812, so Javan had a different mother. "I found this page when looking for information on Micajah Barnett Sr. His son, Micajah Barnett Jr was my grandmother's great-grandfather according to our family records. I only have 6 children listed for Micajah Sr, but have learned there were up to 14 in the mixed family after the second marriage. Information on the mother of Micajah Barnett Jr would be very welcome and appreciated as it would help me trace the line between myself and the family." -- Jennifer Fishburn, email to Orville Boyd Jenkins, 6 February 2012 Note that this list has one child named Joroyall, b 1802 and another Jorial b 1808. These names are variations of the same name. But perhaps this list is correct that there were two children. Other lists have only one child listed with a variation of this name. None of the earlier ones I found had wives of this child. One difference is in the death date, which supports the idea that there were two children with these similar names. This source does not give sources for these birth and death dates. The list also includes a Joseph, which would be a duplicate or Joroyall/Jorial. Another genealogy, for instance, has mostly the same children, but has only Joroyal and no Jorial separately, with no dates. That list also adds Janylhen Barnett, and leaves out Micajah Jr. and Joseph. -- Stanford University, Barnett (no longer online), http://www.stanford.edu/~melbar/BARNETT/WC02/WC02_023.HTM Micajah was recorded in the 1790 and 1800 censuses in Spartanburg County/District of South Carolina.

He died in 1832 in Lawrence County, AL. He married Susannah about 1793 in Spartanburg County, SC. Susannah died sometime between 1814 (birth of son, Jorial) and 1820 (1820 Census). Her maiden name COULD have been White or Smith as Richard and Susannah sold and bought lands from the Whites and Smiths of Spartanburg Co., SC. It is also possible that Susannah's maiden name was Lewis. Their children were: 1-ELIZABETH (probable daughter) born 1802 in Spartanburg County, SC and died about 1880 in Lincoln County, TN. She married Josiah Stovall, son of David Stovall and Mary Wright. Their children were: Mary Ann, Thomas (married Mahulda P. Smith), Stephen Gilbert (married Sarah Ann Sanderson), Nancy Jane (md. William Henry Riley), Frances, Susan Hulda (md. John C. Maroney), Alfred David (md. Sarah Jane Maroney, 2nd to Mary Jane Riley), Martha (md. Silas Dollar), Sarah (md. Hiram Dollar), and Matthew. Josiah and Elizabeth lived in Lincoln Co., TN all their life. Descendants seem to have migrated to Ellis Co., TX. 2-SUSAN (probable daughter) born 1805 in Spartanburg County, SC and died before Sep 1857 in Itawamba County, MS. She married David Joseph Stovall, brother of Josiah. Their children were: Thomas Pinckney(?) (md. Matilda Gillis), Richard Lewis (md. Sarah Tankersly), Francis M. (md. Nancy Jane Lindsey), Elijah George (md. Sarah Ann, 2nd to Martha Alvis, 3rd to Emma P. McWilliams), John Calvin (md. Mary Martha Adeline Lindsey), Christopher Charles (md. Eveline), Martha E. (md. Joseph Tyre Mackey), Alfred B., Andrew Jackson (md. Mary Frances Woodward), William James (md. Mary Jane Walker) and Jorial (md Sarah Calista Reeves). David and Susan's family moved from Giles County, TN to Lawrence Co., AL then to Itawamba Co., MS. After Susan's death, David and his new wife, Mary Elizabeth Mackey Thigpen, moved to Kaufman County, TX. Many descendants remain in the Kaufman County area. 3-JOSEPH born 20 June 1807 in Spartanburg County, SC and died 20 Nov 1894 in Coleman County, TX. He married Susan Hampton on 1 Sep 1829 in Lawrence County, AL. Their children were: James (apparently died young), Rial (md. Mary Jane Thomas), Cynthia E. (never married), Richard Thomas (died in Civil War), George (died in Civil War), Harvey (died in Civil War), Rufus Calvin (never married), Mary Ann, and Almary Melvina. Joseph and Sarah moved from Lawrence County, AL to Itawamba Co., MS then to Kaufman Co., TX then to Coleman Co., TX where they are buried in Talpa Cemetery in Coleman, Coleman Co., TX. Their descendants lived in the counties of Kaufman, Coleman and Runnels. Descendants of their son, Rial, later moved to Arizona. 4-GEORGE born 2 Aug 1810 in Spartanburg County, SC and died 3 Dec 1888 in Kaufman Co., TX. He married Minerva Green on 11 Mar 1830 in Lawrence County, AL. Their children were: Caroline, Elizabeth Jane, James Monroe (md. Sharlotta Smith), Alfred J. (md. Emily Frances Morrow), Nemia (died young), William J. (died in Civil War), Nancy Jean (md. John Parker, 2nd to Joseph S. Hart), Martha A. (md. Samuel C. Hampton), Cornelia Frances (md. Joseph Cooper Spencer), Lucy A. (md. A. Bryant Hill), and Robert Henry (md. Elizabeth, 2nd to Susan). George and Minerva moved from Lawrence Co., AL to Itawamba Co., MS and later to Kaufman Co., TX. George and his family were one of the first families to settle in Kaufman Co., TX. 5-JORIAL born about 1814 in Giles County, TN and died after 1880 in Brazos County, TX. He married twice, first to a Martha about 1835. Their children were: Susan E. (md. H. J. Taylor), Mary D.B. (md. Dave Adams??), Richard Lewis (md. Susan Hill, 2nd to Mary Jane Black), James Alfred (md. Mary D. Taylor, 2nd to Vina), George Allison (md. Rebecca E.), Benjamin Augustin (md. Emily C.), and Martha Callie (md. Leonidas W. P. Eubank). Jorial's second wife was Rachel Hill whom he married on 23 Dec 1858 in Cherokee County, TX. Their children were John Douglas (md. Mary E. Rawes), Nancy Alice (md. Michael Weickersheimer, Jr.), Cinder (Cinderella?), Ward (md. Hettie) and Laura. Jorial moved from Lawrence Co., AL to Itawamba Co., MS then to Cherokee Co., TX. Sometime after his marriage to his second wife, Rachel, he moved to Brazos Co., TX. His descendants lived in the counties of Eastland, Coke, Wharton, Matagorda, Freestone, and Brazos. Richard and Susannah apparently had four other daughters and two other sons. Does anyone know who they may have been? We suspect that there was a son named Alfred since almost all of the Barnett siblings named a son Alfred.

That reports that Sarah Elizabeth died in a fire when their home in Prentiss, Mississippi, burned. Her husband moved to Indian Territory, and died in Kiowa County, Oklahoma. Her husband's memorial on Find a Grave says Elizabeth (Bette) died in July 1878.
According to the 1900 and 1910 censuses, Susan's father was born in Mississippi, and her mother in Georgia. 1900 Federal Census, Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory, 13 June, Township 15, District 40, page 6B, Hse/Fam #126 Green, Jacob Head W M Nov 1848 51 Married 81 yrs GA NC GA Farmer; Green, Susan Wife W F Aug 1858 41 Married 81 yrs 6 children, 6 living MS MS GA In the 1860 census (see below), Susan is reported as 3 years old. This seems to indicate that the birth year of 1858 in the 1900 census is wrong. Even if the family was rounding up to her next birthday, in August after the census date, that would make her birth year 1857. If they were reporting as intended in the census, her age of at the time of the June census date would mean she was born in 1856, and indeed one genealogy so reports. I expect that she was born in August 1857, and the family reported her in 1860 as 3 years old, thinking in terms of her 3rd birthday that year. This kind of discrepancy in figuring ages and birth dates is extremely common in the 1900 census! 1910 Federal Census, Nash, Muskogee, Oklahoma, 30 April, District 107, Page 13B, Hse/Fam #104 Green, Jacob Head M W 60 2nd marriage 1st married age 27 GA NC SC Farmer Green, Susan Wife F W 51 1st marriage, married age 27 6 children, 6 living MS MS GA Note that Susan's father is reported born in Mississippi in these two censuses. The 1870 census of her family indicates Susan's father John (reported as John B in genealogies) was born in Georgia, not Mississippi. Barnett family genealogies I found in December 2007 also indicate he was born in Georgia. It is understandable that Susan would remember it as Mississippi, since that is where she grew up. She is first recorded in the 1860 census in Itawamba County, Mississippi. 1860 Federal Census, Itawamba County, Mississippi, 20 June, PO Gun Town, page 1 (scan 219), Hse/Fam #2 Barnett, John 36 M Farmer $200 real $1125 personal Georgia [born abt 1824] Barnett, Minerva 38 F South Carolina [born abt 1822] Barnett, Susan A 3 F Mississippi [born abt 1857] Note that Susan is always listed as Susan A, or in later years, just Susan. Some genealogies have her name as Susan Amanda. It appears they have interpolated the initial A as Amanda. Susan always appears in censuses as Susan A, but I have never seen the name Amanda in any records, only in genealogies, without any source or documentation. But in the 1860 census, when Susan A is reported as 3 years old, there was a younger child, Mandy reported as 1 year old. Mandy is the standard nickname for Amanda. Amanda was a younger daughter of this family, not the same child as Susan A. Susan's age of 12 in 1870 is consistent with birth in August 1857. To cinch it, the younger sister is enumerated as Amanda in 1870. 1870 Federal Census, Prentiss County, Mississippi, 11 June, PO Booneville, Township 6 Range 7, pages 5-6 (scan 428), Hse/Fam #31 Barnett, John 55 M W Farmer $200 real $1125 personal Georgia [born abt 1815] Barnett, Manerva 53 F W Keeping House Georgia [born abt 1817] -- page 6 -- Barnett, Susan A 14 F W Mississippi [born abt 1856] This is an earlier birth year than previously. Other ages are wrong in this census. In the 1880 census, John B's father John H is also reported to have been born in Georgia, but his father in South Carolina, which is a basis for connection to the other line of Barnetts in the Green family line. 1880 Federal Census, Young County, Texas, 13 June, Precinct 2, District 168, page 17, Hse #144, Fam #148 Barnet, John W M 64 Farmer GA GA GA [b abt 1826] Barnet, Menerva W F 56 Wife Keeping House SC VA SC [b abt 1824] Barnet, Susen A W F 22 Dau Single Keeping House MS GA SC [b abt 1858] Pink's uncle, Jacob's brother Jackson, also married a woman named Barnett, Clarinda. It is possible there is a connection between John Barnett's family and the Carolina-Alabama Barnetts that Jorile R Barnett comes from. I have not been able to establish the link. Two brothers married women named Barnett. Clarinda had a sister named Susan, but the dates and other facts did not match for her to be Jacob's wife. Working with Barnett researcher Susan Ball, I determined in January 2008 that Susan was the daughter of John B Barnett and Minerva (or Manerva) Taylor Owens. The separate Barnett families migrated into Oklahoma from different Eastern origins and by different routes. Susan informed me that Jacob and Susan married in Cooke County, Texas, which makes sense from the Green family residence there in 1860. Several members of the Green and related Jackson families moved into Indian Territory. In 1896 Susan and her brother James C Barnett applied for recognition as Cherokees, seemingly based on the Cherokee identity of their mother Minerva Taylor Owens. Cousin and co-researcher Winnie Yandell has a copy of the application in the 1896 census. They were denied, but their application is on file. Her name on this record is Susan S Green. We have found her only as Susan or Susan A on all other records. "On Susan's application for admission to the Cherokee Tribe in OK (which copy I have) this is how she was listed: Susan S. Green. I don't recall ever seeing her middle initial 'S' on anything. The Application shows both Susan S. Green and James C Barnett, on same cover to application. (Online, I did not find one for James C). So possibly they listed them together as they made claim on their mother, Minerva Owens Barnett's Cherokee ancestry. Had they been approved, it would have entitled them to Indian land. This app was sworn to on 3rd day of Sept. 1896." -- Winnie Yandell, email to Orville Boyd Jenkins, 29 March 2012 A simple transcription of the basic information in the application is online. -- Commission, 1896 Application Search, http://www.accessgenealogy.com/native/commissionresults.php?s_surname=Green&s_given=Susan&s_middle= Winnie received a copy of the actual application from Susan Ball. No 5424 James C Barnett and Susan S Green Cherokee Nation, Ft Gibson, Indian Territory Filed: Sept 9-96 A S McKennan Comr [Commander] The first report of Susan with her husband Jacob Green is in the 1900 census. But since her Cherokee application was in the surname Green, this means they were married earlier. Barnett-Green researcher Susan Bell reports the marriage date as 12 July 1883, in Cooke County, Texas. This would have been in Gainesville, just across the Red River into Texas. This is where the Greens first came to the west from their Georgia home. In the 1860 census Toliver Green is found there with his family, including Jacob who later married Susan Barnett. Marriage of Jacob Green to Susan Barnett 12 July 1883 in Cooke County, Texas. -- Susan Ball, email to Orville Boyd Jenkins, December 2007 So they got married on the Texas side of the Red River in 1883. They were probably living with other relatives we know of in the Marietta area, mostly with the surnames Green, Jackson and Barnett. In 1896, Susan and her brother submitted an application to the Dawes Commission for recognition as Cherokee citizens. The filing was at Ft Gibson, but we do not know if they filed this joint application in person, or it was done by a personal or legal representative. In 1900 Jacob and Susan are in residence in the Ft Gibson area for the census, while her brother James C Barnett is back down in the Marietta area near the Red River in Chickasaw Nation. In the 1900 census, Susan and Jacob Green are in Cherokee Nation. This census record reports her birth date as Aug 1858. The Green family did not know the name of Jacob's wife. I found this in public records. Susan's mother is in Chickasaw Nation in 1900, widowed and living with her son James. 1900 Federal Census, Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory, 1 June, Township 7 South Range 2 East, Enumeration District 150, page 6A, Marietta, Hse #90, Fam #90 Barnett, James C Head W M Oct 1856 43 Married 23 years Miss Geo SC Farmer, Stockman Rents Barnett, Christiana Wife W F Mar 1858 42 Married 23 years 1 child/1 living IL NJ IN Barnett, Christopher Son W M Nov 1877 76 Single TX MS IL Farm Laborer Barnett, Minerva Mother W F July 1823 76 Widow SC VA SC We know from other sources that Susan's family were in Love County later. Love County is a small county just north of Gainesville in Cooke County, Texas. It seems likely that they were in Indian Territory, and went back to Jacob's home to get their marriage license and get married, then returned to their home in Love County. They would have moved to Cherokee Nation between the time of their marriage in 1883 and the 1900 census. I have found Susan Barnett Green elusive after the 1910 census. No record has been found for Susan Barnett Green in the 1920 census. Known facts indicate she was still in Oklahoma at that time, and then moved to California with her sons in about 1925. Susan was reported in the 1921 Muskogee City/County Directory in 1921, along with her sons Pink and Thomas. U.S. City Directories, 1822-1995 Muskogee and Muskogee County, Oklahoma, City Directory, 1921, p 547 (Phoenix Directory Company) Pink (Lois) Green farmer Susan (wid Jacob) Green Thomas Green The Greens moved to California in about 1925 or 1926, according to some indications, and a couple of references seem to indicate they moved directly to Fresno. But it seems the common route would have brought them into Southern California in the LA area, where they could have turned north. In March 2012 I finally found an entry that appears to be her, in Riverside County, California. The facts generally fit her. There is little supportive evidence, however, since her sons Tom and Pink are a couple of counties north in Fresno. Only Susan is reported in that area, in Riverside County, in 1930. Susan may have decided to stay near LA while the others moved on. 1930 Federal Census, Riverside County, California, 11 April, Perris Township, District 31, page 4B, Hse #148, Fam #126 Green, Susan Head Rents $10 F W 75 Widow First married at age 23 MS NC SC No Occupation Her sons Pink and Tom are there for the 1930 census. But Susan was with them later in Fresno County. Susan is registered in the voting rolls in Kerman, Fresno County, in 1938, next to her son Tom G Green.

BARNETT and Minerva Taylor (Owens) BARNETT. She was the ninth of twelve children. (two d. young) Her family migrated to Texas (Young Co) then to Love Co. I.T. (OK). She married Jacob Green 12 July 1883, in Cooke Co. TX and after some time in Marietta, Love Co., they moved to the northeastern part (Cherokee Nation) area of OK, and lived there until her husband died (ca 1917); then a son, Walter Jacob "Jake" died in 1925, Muskogee Co. OK. The family soon afterward moved to the Fresno Co. area of central Calif where her sons worked as farmers. The widow of W. "Jake" Jr. with three small children, also moved to the area. Susan and Jacob, Sr., had six children: Norah Green Smith; Pink Green; Thomas Gilbert Green; John (d. young); and Arthur T. Green.
