Barwick) Listed as: "Barwick John Wife Pheribah Elizabeth Drake (her 2d marriage), first husband was John Nelson Key, died Aug 15, 1862" And along with this listing: "Barwick John Married Pheribah Elizabeth Drake (her 2d marriage). She was born Mar 23, 1832, Washington Co, and D Oct 16, 1876, Emanuel Co, GA" See the following, which accounts for him. http://www.geocities.com/nsusanelliott/barwickjohn.htm We found two additional generations on this site in one stop - thank you! We will be submitting some info on Oscar Linton Barwick's nine children later.

Comments: I wanted to offer to add to your information on my branch of Nathan Barwick's decendants. My Great, great grandparents were Curtis Manning Barwick and Mary Ann Kea. My Great grandparents were Dr. George Manning Barwick and Laura Johnson. I cannot remember the exact date of their wedding sometime in 1924, but I know it was held at the home of John Thigpen, Dee's older brother. My grandfather was the late Willis Curtis Barwick, a pharmacist, and my Grandmother who is still alive and about to turn 100 years old is DeAlvah Thigpen Barwick (born: December 3,1900). Willis and Dee had two children: George Manning Barwick (born: June 5,1927 - died: October 2,1939) and Carolyn DeAnne Barwick (born: January 21, 1942). Carolyn was born at a hospital in Dublin, GA. When Carolyn was in elementary school the family moved to St. Simons Island, GA. Carolyn Barwick married John Ephraim Baldwin {born:February 25,1930)on October 7, 1972 on Jeckyll Island, GA. Carolyn Barwick Baldwin and John Baldwin lived on St. Simons Is and and had one daughter, Jennifer DeAnne Baldwin (born: November 21, 1973). After 12 years in Atlanta, John and Carolyn now live in Blue Ridge, Georgia. Jennifer(that's me) married Benjamin Joseph Askew (born: May 31,1966 in Atlanta) on June 19, 1993. Jennifer and Ben currently reside in Memphis, Tennessee and have 4 children. Our children are: Caroline Elisabeth Askew (born: 5-26-94) Emily DeAnne Askew (born: 12-4-95) Abigail Joy Askew (born: 11-26-97) Mary Kathryn Askew (born: 9-5-99) If anyone out there has any photos on the Barwicks mentioned above, I would be very greatful. I am currently putting together a special scrapbook for my grandmother, DeAlvah, to celebrate her life as she turns 100 in December. Because of a fire, many fa ily photos were lost to us. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks so much.

Comments: The boy that is in the picture is her grandson Verdie Ricks. Verdie was the son of Elizabeth's daughter, Ellafair Durden, who married E.L Ricks. I found the picture in a book and photocopied it about 4 years ago. My grandmother recognized the picture and told me who she was. I hope this information helps some!

Comments: Our family records show Eugenia E Barwick as married to Jessie Welch. The Welch spelling is correct. They had six children. One of the children Wiley Crozier Welch was sheriff of Columbia, La 1902-1912. One of the daughters was my great greatgrandmother L la Welch Watson. Do you think our Eugenia E Barwick Welch is the same as your Ellender E Barwick? Thanks Nan

Comments: Growing up was told a story of Barwick Brothers who landed in Cheasapeak Maryland with Lord Baltimore in the 1700's (?). One brother settling in Cheasapeake City Maryland (ships rigger & chandler). Another brother moving south to Ga. (probably textiles). third to Pa. (coal & R/R). Any others unknown. I belong to the Pa. branch who also has members in NY. Conn. and In. My father who died recently settled in Elizabethtown Tn. was born in Phila. Pa. Any info on the original settlers or links with Great Britain is greatly appreciated. Yours, Robert Alan Barwick NY

Comments: Great site! I have finally found the connection on the Barwick side of the family. I am decended through Eugenia E Barwick daughter of Noel and Susan Crozier. I'm showing Eugenia as a first name instead of Elleander because Eugenia E is shown on her gr ve marker. Eugenia and her husband, Jessie B Welch are buried at Old Bethel cemetery near Clarks, Louisiana. Eugenia and Jessie moved to La with their daughter, son-in-law Nathan Hester, and grandson Willie Crozier Hester in 1883. Family history states that they moved by Ox drawn wagons from Smith County, Mississippi. Also, the other children of Eugenia and Jessie made the move. I will have more info later. Thanks, Mike Parker
