The thomas barber genealogy

As explained in the book, there has been evidence passed down from Hallet’s grandson Ira Everett BARBER to his great-granddaughter Margaret

E BARBER (a correspondent of mine) stating that Hallett’s father was Elisha Westover BARBER.

A different type of evidence raises the possibility that the 3 brothers are descended from the Rhode Island Barbers, descendants of Moses Barber,

b 1652. A 12 location Y-DNA test indicates this relationship. However, 12 location tests are poor evidence.
