On Thursday evening, January 25, 1912, just after sunset the
death angel entered the home of Mr. A. J. Barbour and claimed the spirit
of his beloved wife and companion. Although all skilled physicians and
loving hands could do to prolong her stay with us and ease her sufferings,
it was of no avail. The Lord had claimed her for his own, and called her
home above where sorrows, sickness, and death are felt and feared no more,
but all is light and love.
The deceased, Lou Della Barbour, was born Janurary 22, 1862, and died
January 25, 1912, making her stay on earth 50 years and three months
(days).
They were joined together in the holy bonds of wedlock in the year 1882.
She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs James N. Barbour. She had been
suffering for a year or so with cancer. Although her sufferings were long
and painful, she bore them all with patience and Christian fortitude that
was remarkable in one so weak. Although we miss her sadly, as we know
that she can never return to us and we no more hear her gentle voice
again or see her sweet face on earth again, yet we could not wish her back
with us for we have hope and evidence to believe that she is now at rest,
and feel that our loss is her eternal gain.
She had never united with them, but was a firm believer in the faith
and religion of the Primitive Baptist Church. She leaves a lonely
husband, eight living children, and four dead, father and mother, five
sisters and two brothers, all to mourn the loss of a kind and devoted
wife, loving mother, sister, and daughter.
She was laid to rest Friday afternon, January 26, at Rehobeth Church in
the presence of a host of sorrowing relatives and friends.
She was a woman of noble Christian character and possessed a loving
disposition, was a devoted and loving wife a kind and affecionate mother
and faithful and obliging friend and neighbor to all.

Lord on November 7, 2010. She was born December 7, 1921 in Clayton to the

She spent her last healthy years taking clothes and other personal items
to local adult care homes. She visited those who she knew and many
residents who she didn't know and shared with them personal servings of
home-cooked Southern food. She was named Volunteer of the Year by
Governor and Mrs Hunt during their first term for her volunteer work at
OBerry Center in Goldsboro. She spent several years making clothes for
the children there and traveling back and forth to share them with the
children on a regular basis. She was honored at a reception in the
Governors mansion in Raleigh. Mrs McDowell was a member of the Johnston
County Homemakers Club in Clayton and a former auxilliary member of the
American Legion. She was a member of Mount Calvary Baptist church, but in
her last years, due to health, attended Hocutt Baptist Church. She was
loved and dearly called Grandma and Flossie Jane by her family. Her
great-grandchildren named her Mema. She is survived by husband Richard T
McDowell of Clayton, daughters Donna McDowell White and husband Roy of
Clayton and Lynette McDowell Worlds and husband Bobby of Clayton.
Grandchildren are Jason Bagwell and wife Mandy of Clayton, Richard E White
of Carolina Beach, Dori Franklin and husband David of Raleigh, Michael
Alligood and wife Nicole of Durham, Deanna Hart and husband Jim of Garner,
and Catherine Worlds of Clayton. She had six great-grandchildren --
Caitlyn and Ethan bagwell, Esther and Anne Marie Franklin, and Chase and
Davis Hart. She is also survived by her brother Willie Hill of Smithfield
who she raised after the death of their mother and his children, Patricia,
Billy and Robert, who only knew her as Grandma. She was loved and honored
by many nieces, nephews and in-laws from her Hill family and from the
McDowell clan. Flowers are welcome, but in lieu of flowers, a scholarship
is being established in her hame -- Esther Hill McDowell, c/0 Four Oaks
Bank, P.O. Box 247, Clayton NC 27528. The scholarship wil be given to a

"Jim Bur'l Barbour, a descendant of Burwell Barber. Jim Bur'l
was the only father Lou Della ever knew. Catherine was a
daughter of Ashley Barber and a descendant of George Barber.
By request of the husband and family of Sister Catherine Barbour,
and in behalf of the church of her membership we write a short sketch of
the many good things of the above sister.
She was born in Johnston County December 13, 1843, and died January 8,
1919, at a ripe old age.
At an early age she was married to Ruffin Barbour, of Johnston County,
who fell in the late war between the states, leaving her with one child.
On December 29, 1865, she was again married to J. N. Barbour, of said
county, who survives her, together with seven children, two sons having
preceded her to the grave. She also has twenty-eight grandchildren
and ninetine great-grandchildren.
On August 24, 1889, she united with the Primitive Baptist church at
Rehobeth by a written statement of her experience and hope, and was
baptized the following day. She lived a faithful member and true to her
church as long as her health permitted her attendance, and her whole mind
and soul remained unshaken until her death.
She was a kind and affectionate wife and especially a mother, always
caring for her husband and children in a loving and tender manner, teaching
and advising them of how they should live in life. And in this instance
was a shining light in obedience to the command laid down in God's Word,
bring up your children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
We feel that she was not only a light and an example to her children
but was a worthy example for us all. Though she has been afflicted most
of her life and more so of late years, she bore her afflictions with
patience, ever trusting in the God of her salvation. When at last
influenza took hold and she came to the end of her journey, she still
manifested her unshaken faith in her Lord.
She requested that her body be carried to her old home church of her
membership and services conducted by the unworthy writer.
Now we feel that though the family has lost their brightest jewel, the
country a most worthy woman, and the church a true and faithful member.
And to the dear olf Brother Barbour (her husband) and family, we feel
that you should not weep over her, but rather rejoice from the fact that
your wife and mother has lived such a life as to leave among you and your
country a shining monument in your memory.
And at your request we send a copy of these few words tothe Smithfield
Herald and Zion's Landmark for publication. L. H. Stephenson, Pastor.

Barber 29 Dec 1865, widow of William Ruffin Barber. Jim Bur'l
and Catherine raised Catherine's daughter Lou Della by
William. Jim Bur'l also served in the 5th North Caolina
Regiment and was paroled at Raleigh, NC on 19 May 1865.
The most sublime scene in the life of a Christian is the final
triumph over the dying hour. He passes through the valley of the shadow
of death fearing no evil, because his Shepherd is with him.
We felt that this was true with Mr. James N. Barbour, when on the
morning of May 14, he quietly passed away after an illness of five days.
He was in his 86th year, and death was due to infirmities of old age.
He was born on September 20, 1840, and lived almost all of his life in
Johnston County. At the age of twenty-one years the War Between the
States came on. When his country called he answered, and enlisted with
Company C, 5th NC Regiment.
He was at all times ready to "obey the powers that be," in every form
of allegiance and defense essential to civil governments. He loved his
Southland, and his discharge from military service did not end his career
as a soldier, for his heart was large and tender enough to defend any just
cause.
When the war was over he came back to his native country and married
Mrs. Catherine Barbour. Their life together was an ideal one until
January 8, 1918 (1919), she died, leaving him to cherish the memory of her
gentle disposition as long as he lived. He had been a member of the
Primitive Baptist church ever since 1873, and with a deep conviction and
profound faith in the great realities of Christianity he has served his
God and fellowmen for more than half a century. The very influence of his
noble life has been an inspiration to those who have love him in such
measure that their devotion to him was sufficient motive for clean lives
and exemplary conduct.
For many years helived with his sons, where he was surrounded with
every needed comfort.
His remains were taken to Rehobeth church of which he was a member and
funeral services conducted by the Elder Jesse Barnes.......
Seven children survive him, five daughters and two sons as follows:
Mrs Jno. Windham, Mrs. M. C. Barbour, Mrs. J. A. Langdon, Mrs. G. W.
Stephenson, and Mrs. Lexie Stephenson, Mr. I. A. Barbour and Mr. Archie
Barbour.
He leaves a name his friends love to remember and cherish and those who
knew him best have full assurance of his eternal reward. The Lord in whom
he trusted has also passed through death, and left him a promise "That
where I am, there ye may be also."

ANALYSIS:
A detailed Analysis, "Jones Family History, etc" by B. Z. Jones sent by
the applicant.
With this analysis is an affidavit submitted by William Elbert Barber in
which he states that"
--His mother is the dau of John Jones & Cassaline Lashley. He names
John, Thomas, James Alvin & Doctor as brothers.
--His grandfather, John Jones, is buried w/his parents William Jones & Amy
Barber (on land that once owned by Wiliam Jones) 1850 c Johnston Co. NC,
380-380 page 26A 1860 census Neuse River,Johnston Co. NC, p 366, Amy Jones
is liv with son John & wife Cassie (3 families are liv together.)
--In the same twp, p 360, 285/264, Doctor Jones & his wife, Martha are liv
with their children.
--Wiliam Elbert Barber's affidavit is fortified by the census recs, & the
detailed (with many sources cited) analysis of Ms Barbara Z Jones. From
the information contained therein, the logical conclusion would be that
Doctor is the child of William & Amy Jones.
--Note: William Elbert Barbour/Barber was b in 1899.He would fit in
around the 4th gen. The 6th gen would be his grandfather, brother of
Doctor.

"Heritage of Johnston County, North Carolina" 1985, page 130:
William Elbert Barbour, Family #89
No person I ever met knew more about his ancestors than William Elbert
Barbour. This information was not written down, but was implanted in
the memory of this man. It was he who sparked my interest in genealogy,
and he and I could sit for hours talking about "old times."
He told me that Plier Barber and a brother were the first Barbers to
settle in Elevation Township in Johnston County. Elbert had always heard
that Plier and the brother had a serous political disagreement before the
Revolutionary War. The brother left Johnston County, and the records
indicate that his name was George Barber and that he went to Georgia.
It was told that George once returned to see Plier, but was told by
Plier's wife, Amy, that he had better leave because she was afraid Plier
would kill him if he caught him there. So supposedly he left, never to
see Plier again. The records also indicate that Plier had come from the
Barber's Creek/Craig's Creek area of Lower Augusta County, Virginia, prior
to the Revolution.
Note that the following James Daniel spelled his name Barber but his
children spelled their name Barbour. During the years the spelling was
in transition (last part of the nineteenth century), James Daniel Barber
changed his name to Barbour with his children adopting this spelling.
However, in later life Daniel became dissatisfied with the "new"
spelling and resumed the "old" leaving his children with the last name of
Barbour. Elbert Barbour said that he had been otld the reason for the
spelling change was that the Barbers in Clayton "got acquainted" with
some of their aristocratic, affluent relatives in Virginia who told the
Clayton family they were not spelling the name correctly, thus the change
to Barbour."
James Daniel Barber was the son of Alvin Barber (1834-1910) and wife,
Temperance Eliza Jones (1848-1908), daughter of James Alvin Jone
(1819-1882) and Emmaline Barber Jones (1829-1891). The brothers and
sisters of James Daniel Barber were Sarah, George William, Louie, and
Julius Marcus.
Alvin Barber was the son of Theophilus (Offie) Barber (1793-1873) and
wife, Sarah (Sallie) (ca. 1795-1865). Much legend surrounds this couple,
but the records reveal that Theophilus was a farmer and hatter (hatmaker)
in Elevation Township. Offie liked to attend court in Smithfield and the
judges would kiddingly say they could not start court until Mr. Offie
Barber got there. The prevailing family legend is that Sallie was an
Indian from Onslow County whom Offie met when he served in the the War of
1812. To date, no records have been found to substantiate this.
Alvin Barber served as a militiaman during the War Between the States.
It was his duty to see htat deserters were returned to the ranks. It was
told to me by Elbert Barbour that Alvin was required by law to be armed
when he approached a deserter. To meet this requirement, he would always
pick up a small stick, which of course, would not place much pressure on
the deserter to return. Brothers and sisters of Alvin Barber were
Malsey, Ridley, Theophilus Hinton, Absalom (called Black Ap), Brittian,
Ashley, and Larkin. These children of Theophilus and Sally Barber were
the parents of forty-six known children and approximately 127 grandchildren.
William Elbert Barbour lived a fairly adventurous life in his youth. He
not only served in France in World War I, but was with Western Union and
helped install the first telegraph lines in the South, including the
state of Florida. He described Tampa as being about the size of
Smithfield at that time. It was not until he was 38 years old that he
married Lettie Stephenson, age 23, of Pleasant Grove Township. She was
the daughter of Bennett Marion Stephenson (1867-1929) and wife, Adeline
Johnson Stephenson (1874-1920)
Bennett Marion Stephenson was the son of Jessee Stephenson (1820-1887)
and wife, Charlotte Stephenson Stephenson (1826-?). Adeline Johnson was
the daughter of Henry Harrison Johnson (1841-?) and wife, Mary Jane Sabra
Coats Johnson (1842-?). Brothers and sisters of Lettie Stephenson were
Kirby, Kemp, Annie, Minnie, Millard, Bertha, Mary, Hallie, and Floyd.
Both Elbert and Lettie Barbour were descended from many pioneer Johnston
County families.
The children of William Elbert Barbour and Lettie Stephenson Barbour are
Marion Durwood Barbour who married Mary Anne Baker... James Atlee Barbour
who married Waneta Scott...and William Kenneth Barbour who married Helen
Marie Strickland...
