My Great Great Grandmother was named Julia Anne Barton born 14 Jan 1829 died 24 Jul 1913 in Transylvania, NC she married Eliakim Smith Hamlin in 1847 in NC. Her father was John Barton born in NC and her mother was Sophia Kytle born 1815 died 1885 in Transylvania County, NC. John Barton's parents were Thomas Barton and Nancy Easly. Thats all I know of them.

The name of your first known ancestor: John Barton
Where was your ancestor born?: Surry Co., England
I'm a descendent of the "Southern" S.C. Bartons thru John Milton Barton and Sophia Keitle. I'm also descended from James Bracken b.1765 S.C. married Elizabeth Barton b.abt.1770 S.C. They moved to Transylvania Co., N.C.and both are buried in an old family cemetery in Trans.Co. I'm trying to locate parents of Elizabeth Barton. I've been unable to tie her to my known S.C. Bartons. Any help is greatly appreciated. Also, I'm trying to find the correct parents for Mary"Polly" Barton b.1817 S.C. married Jonas Simpson b. 1806 S.C. I think she is the daughter of Thomas Barton and Nancy Easley, but others feel she is the daughter of John Milton Barton and Sophia Keitle. They both had daughters named Mary, nicknamed "Polly". I'd love some input.
