Barnes passed away Nov. 19, 1917, at 12:05 am, at her home near Seligman, Mo., age 67 years, 9 months and 12 days. She was surrounded by her husband, sons, daughters and friends. She was born in Jasper County, Mo., February 6, 1850; moving with the family to Greenwood county, Kansas, where she and T. J. Barnes were married March 28, 1867; residing there a short time, they then moved to Barry county, Missouri where they have since made their home. Of this marriage eleven children were born, of whom ten are living. They are: Mrs. W. A. Fairchild, Mrs. Jacob Roller, Mrs. Oscar Webb of near Washburn Mo.; Mrs. P. D. Miller of Cassville; Mrs. Della Hurd of Los Angeles Ca.; Mrs. Frankie Ferguson of Eureka, Kan.; Henry and Pinkney L. Barnes of near Seligman; Jeff Barnes of Lamar, Col., and Lewis Barnes of Chicago, Ill., All were present excepting Mrs. Della Hurd and Jeff Barnes. She had twenty-nine grand-children and four great grand-children, one brother John Baker and one sister Mrs. J. W. Deweese, both of Seneca Mo. She had been a member of the Baptist Church since 1869 and lived a consistent Christian life. Funeral services conducted at the Barnes home, Tuesday Nov. 20th, by Rev. Crouch of Pleasant Ridge township, pastor of the Baptist church. The remains were laid to rest in the family cemetery on the Barnes farm to await a sweet resurrection. A happy home is darkened; a loving and affectionate wife and mother called from a devoted husband and children, whose heart strings are bleeding from grief and sorrow. None ever entered her home without a warm and sincere welcome; nor left without feeling the warmth of a genuine hospitality, so characteristic of the people of her ancestry. Disease did not destroy the charm of a kind indulgent disposition or diminish her unselfish solicitude for her loved ones as well as neighbors and friends. While she has continued to enjoy the society of her family and friends, she has for several years, realized that her active life was over and with resignation, awaited the divine call from death unto life. She has attended the last roll call on earth, but will answer in Heaven, when the roll is called over there. - August 15, 1912, Cassville Republican - Washburn Prairie News: T. J.
