Want to make contact with anyone who has an interest in William Barr, listed in the 1850 census for Iowa County, Brush Run Twp.
I believe this to be William John Barr, b. Scotland roughly c.1815, m. Mary Jane ---- 11 Apr 1843, Glasgow.
Child: William Robinson Barr b. New York c.1845.
Child: Mary Jane Barr b. Illinois c.1849
Iowa Co. census record taken 29 Aug 1850.
The Barrs arrived in Oregon Oct 1852, where they settled. Child: Hugh Albert Barr b. Oregon c.1854. W.R. and H.A. Barr went on to establish a cutlery and edge tool business in Douglas County, OR c.1873(?), moved to Eugene, OR c.1890, to Oakland, CA c.1911.
Trying to clarify the family's cross country movements a bit better, please email me if you can help or if these names fit into your area of interest.
