Hi Bev,
As far as Ward being the James in the 1800 census, It could be Ward, but John first moved to Hawkins County, Tenn before moving to Buncombe County, where apparently my Thomas stayed, it is possible Ward also stayed and later moved to Buncombe. All the census records until 1830 for Hawkins County were lost, so makes research there difficult. By the way, do land records show him as Ward V?
As far as George Clinton Barrett goes, I hope I did not say DNA proved him the son of Thomas, if I did what I should have said was that the person who provided the DNA with George Clinton as his proven ancestor believed he was the son of Thomas who married Charlotte Reason, he, G.C. named a son Reason. DNA in our Barrett project only shows that we are related, in the case of George, Meshack, Thomas, and Ward I believe it states the connection would be within 9 generations.
As far as the John Barrett and Mary Strachan goes, all of the researchers I have found who are researching that couple say they were married in 1774, and were born in the 1750's.If that is true they were to young and married to late to be the parents of our Barrett's. Also Ward was an orphan by 1784. I believe Mary Strachan and John Barrett lived into the 1800;s.
We believe that Miles Barrett born about 1730 married to Mary could possible be the parents of our Barrett's, He was a defendant in a court case against John Bowman, according to Bowman researchers that John Bowman was the father of Peter Bowman who killed Francis Barrett in Patrick County in 1793. Miles is also listed as a witness along with an Isaac Reynold in a land sale. Does not prove anything I realize, but it is one of the reasons we are trying so hard to trace this Miles.
The more folks we can find who will do the DNA test the better for our project and finding matches and hopefully our ancestors.
