My Williams Barfield married Harriett S. Tarkington on Oc. 28, 1810, in Amite County, Ms.Williams had been in Rutherford County, Tn. prior to this...as far back as 1803, where he is found on an early petition.I've also got him on deeds in 1804 and 1806 with Frederick and James Barfield (Rutherford Co).There was a Stephen Barfield in the next county, Williamson.Williams did business with Stephen.Harriett Tarkington was also from Williamson Co., Tn.
Williams was the son of Miles Barfield, who is also found on the 1810 Amite co., Ms. census.Miles came from the SC Barfields.I was tld his father was Roger but now I'm wondering if it might have been Jesse.This would explain a question I've had for a long time..Why was Williams Barfield in Rutherford County, Tn. in the first place?Wasn't Stephen Barfield, of Williamson county, Tn. a son of Jesse?These SC Barfields are so hard to track!I swear I think they burned the courthouses behind them!If anyone has info, please E me at [email protected], Mari Byers
