John BARNES Jr.
and
Anna ABBOTT

John was born 5 April 1790, in Hebron, Washington, New York and married before 1820 in , Cayuga, New York, Anna ABBOTT, the daughter of Samuel ABBOTT. She was born 1 May 1794 in , , New York and died 7 February 1880, in Mason Village, Ingham, Michigan. John died 1863, in Mason Village, Ingham, Michigan.

In 1802 the settlements were augmented by Daniel Parker, from Marcellus; John C. Barnes and his sons, from Sempronius; Edward Wood, from Sennett; and Rev. Michael Burge. Parker settled on lot 69, where Abiah Cook now lives, his farm extending to the south line of the town. In his log house much of the business of the town was transacted at an early day. He died on the old homestead, which is still held by the family, his daughter being Abiah Cook's mother. Barnes settled on lot 70, on the farm now owned by Eleazer F. Jaynes, where he died about 1837. His sons were Amos, John, Luther, Zadoc and Ira? Silas, all of whom are dead. The later two died during the epidemic of 1811. Silas settled on the same lot with his father, and Zadoc on lot 83, on the west part of Isaac R. Merritt's farm. The death of the wife of Silas Barnes, in 1802, was the first in the town. Norton C. Barnes, a son of Luther, is living in Cato. Wood settled on lot 89. Burge drew lot 22 as a soldier's claim and settled on it. He was great-grandfather of David H. Marvin, who now resides on lot 24.

Note I believe the above has some errors in it I think that instead of Silas being a son he is actually a brother of John's as he died in 1818 not in the epidemic of 1811 and 1812 and the son is actually Ira who is in the cemetery records as dieing in 1812 also the cemetery lists a Jacheus which I think is a missreading of Zacheus who also died in 1812 along with his first wife Joanna.
