Another real find, the book written by Samuel Omar Barwick about the Barwick family. In the above picture is Samuel Marion Barwick, my gr. gr. grandfather, my grandmother Myrtice and Fannie or Frances as the census says, (Parkman) Barwick holding Ophelia. This picture was probably made about 1895 or early 1896, as Alma was born in Oct 1896. The second picture is of their daughter Alma when she was a young lady.Third picture Emmitt, born 1900. Fourth picture, Samuel born 1898. Fifth picture Myrtice Willard, my grandmother, their first born-1892. There were five children in all.
This is a portion of the page that relates to my family-notice that Myrtice my grandmother is spelled Mertis. I told grandmother about this and she said it was not mis-spelled, that she didnot like the way it was spelled and had it changed when she was grown. Quite a woman, very independent...........She remembered when Samuel Omar Barwick came to their house in Mississippi and took down the information for the Barwick book.
