Squire wrote this note listing his brothers and sisters. A copy of the note was sent to Ed Puckett, a member of the Estill Kentucky Historical Society, by Mrs. Wheeler. Sandy Lamb has a copy of the note in her Barnes Files. Below is a transcription of the note: Berilda Brooks uncles and aunts: Benjamin Brooks, William Brooks, Mary Brooks Tate, Samuel Brooks, Rachel Brooks Peach, John Brooks, and Allen Brooks. Joseph's uncles and aunts and brothers and sisters: Squire Barnes, Frankie Barnes, James Barnes, Richard Barnes, Moses Barnes, William Barnes, Minerva Barnes, Joel Barnes, Sally Barnes, Polly Barnes, and Elizabeth Barnes. Half Sisters: Rebeckey Barnes and Serilda Barnes. ( Mrs Wheeler indicated that these are Edward Barnes children.) From Scotland to Barnes Mountain - by Ralph Barnes On June 28, 1811 Edward married Polly Shiply, daughter of Richard Shipley, and moved to Estill County where some of his relatives were already living. Thus the Edwardian branch of the Barnes clan became one of the principal families in Estill County. Only two months earlier Susannah Clubb of Fayette County had cited Edward into court on the first known bastardy charge recorded against a member of the family. However he was not the last Barnes to dally and several of his descendants have been similarly charged. His guilt or innocence is not recorded but Polly Shiply decided to marry him anyway. Edward sired at least eight children with Polly and after her death married Catherine Crouch in 1833 and had two daughters by her. Edward died in 1837 leaving a wife and two small daughters. At least one of Edward’s children was still living in 1920. Nearly all Estill Countians with the Barnes surname are descended from Edward. Today, the descendants of the original Barnes settlers include hundreds of known members scattered throughout the country. The number would be much greater if unacknowledged Barnes’ progeny could be counted.
