Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 6th ed., 1887,
Oldham Co.
JAMES W. BARNHILL was born in Oldham County, January 23, 1847, and is a son of Hiram and Margaret (Boyd) Barnhill, the latter a native of Shelby County, Ky. Hiram Barnhill was born in North Carolina in 1818, and came to Kentucky with his father, William, who settled in the southern part of Oldham County, participated in the battle of New Orleans, from which field he
walked home. The wife of William Barnhill, and grandmother of James W. Barnhill, was a Miss Ruth Boone, who was a native of North Carolina and a cousin of Daniel Boone. James W. Barnhill was reared on the home farm, and was educated at LaGrange. In 1885 he entered into partnership with George V. Barnhill, and established the LaGrange Woolen-mills. George V. died
August 28, 1886, and in March, 1887, Col. Charles C. Haelfling and Newton W. Ladd took his half interest. These mills have a working capacity of 115 pounds of wool a day, and employ eleven hands, the capital stock being about $4,500. In May, 1876, Mr. Barnhill married Miss Julia McWilliams, of Shelby County, daughter of Samuel and Martha A. McWilliams, and of the children born to this union five are living: Paul, Estelle, Katie, John D. and William Roy. Mr. Barnhill is still engaged in agricultural pursuits, and owns a farm of 110 acres between LaGrange and Ballardsville.

Hi Jeannette, I sent a reply to your email about the Peverly family, but your server says they will not accept emails from my address. Can you perhaps remove that block and email me again when it has been fixed? Kind regards, Don

aol is funny. So I always have a back up. I very close friends with a relative that family. Julia's brother was a Preacher his name was Oliver Paul Barnhill, he performed the wedding cermony to Enrico Caruso to the Socialite Miss. Dorothy Parks Benjamin.
There is more to this family. I have located of her siblings. I purchased the family bible from a Woman in NH, she new I was the right one to sell it to and I also purchased papers. I put them all to good use.
So what did you think about the two womens resemblance. They are cousin's.
