At last! ... I have found the ancestors of my emigrant ancestor, John Barker of Backbarrow, Lancs, England. A fellow researcher and distant cousin passed this information along to me. This isn't my reasearch - but I have every reason to believe it is factual. I am posting this with the great hope of making contact with others researching this family.
