Be sure to include  
                 Email address you wish to be posted with the pedigree
                 Kit number of the project participant whose pedigree this is
                 Name, birthdate, birthplace, spouse for each generation (direct  male line).

o        Try to keep to one line per generation

o        Include only generations that have this family surname

o        Use surname with each generation

o        Don’t use all caps

o        Don’t number the generations 

Scroll down to the last posting on this forum and click "reply". Post your pedigree in the box provided, and click "Post".    

If you do not see a"reply" tab, it means you have lost your log in and will need to log in again in order to post. Go back to the project home page, log in again, and return to the pedigree forum. Login should hold the second time.

Birth: MARCH 5, 1727 in Toft Hamlet, Warwickshire England
Death: Between 1800 and 1810 in Lenoir County North Carolina
Married: FEBRUARY 19, 1749 Aston Juxta, Birmingham, Warwickshire England
Note: JOHN BARRS, (SR.) was the first of our Barrs family line to immigrate to America in 1750 with his new wife SARA SPEARS. They settled in Johnson-Dobbs County North Carolina in the region that is today LENOIR COUNTY NC, bought farmland, began farming/plantation operations and began raising a large family of NC BARRS. JOHN had inherited his father's, JOHN BARRS OF TOFT'S, property because his father had perhaps disinherited the older sons over a disagreement evolving the church, I believe. It appears that JOHN decided to leave England for more suitable farming conditions and land in America shortly after his father's death in 1746. it also appears he traveled from TOFT HAMLET in the early spring of 1749 to BIRMINGHAM where he married SARAH SPEARS on FEBRUARY 19, 1749. I believe they then traveled directly to LIVERPOOL or BRISTOL ENGLAND where they boarded a ship bound for perhaps WILLIAMSBURG NORTH CAROLINA. They then settled in what is today LENOIR COUNTY NC (JOHNSON-DOBBS-LENOIR). He served in the DOBBS COUNTY MILITIA during 1766 AND 1777. His son, John Barrs, Jr. served in the Dobbs County Militia in 1777.
