Barnhill Data
By Frank Clinton Barnhill Marshall County Missouri For Mrs. Emma Dunn MAstin, Owensboro, KY
ROBERT BARNHILL [WIFE RACHEL] of Orange County, North Carolina, acquired lain Rutherford N.C. by grant dated Jan 20, 1796. He probably never lived on the land, because the land was sold by deed dated Aug 12. 1797, executed by “Robert Barnhill of Shelby County, Kentucky” to Samuel Carter for 70 pounds.
This proves that our Robert Barnhill and wife Rachel, with their family of five boys and one girl, had removed to Shelby County, Ky. Prior to August 12, 1797.
