CAPTAIN JOHN BARTON

John may have been the brother of David who md. Ruth Oldham and Thomas who md. Sarah Wilson.  I have a long list of unsubstantiated children for him.  One of his descendants, Ben, doubts the authenticity of this list so I will only include those children Ben has documented according to Bible records.

Capt. John Barton lived in Franklin County, Georgia. He was a Revolutionary soldier and is said to be buried in South Carolina. His wife was Rhoda _____ and he had three sons...according to Bible records. Capt. John served in the Georgia Legislature from Franklin Co.  

The only son of John's I have any information on is Lewis and he died in Carroll Co., GA in 1831. His family remained in the area. I have found John's family in Surry Co., NC before they miagrated to SC. There was John, William, Henry and Benjamin Barton in the area. The Thrashers and Welborns who married into the David O. Barton line were also there...Any help would be appreciated.

Children:

1.  John Barton, Jr.

3.  Lewis Barton

Some of the descendants of John migrated through Hall Co., GA and on to Carroll Co., GA then on to Boone Co., AR.
