Thomas & John Barnett were two of the witnesses to the Will of William Barnett in Logan Co which is dated 29 Jun 1804. There was no date of probate although it was likely in 1805 given the dates of other entries. William's wife was Elizabeth and he named two sons Adam Sanders Barnett and Thomas Fields Barnett to divide estate. If his wife was with child the estate was to be divided between three children. His Executors were his wife and James Curry Barnett [probably his brother].

Thomas Barnett was in the 1810 Warren Co Census. Both he and his spouse over 45 years of age. One young female under age 10 living with them - granddaughter?
