Henry M. Barfield

(28 Dec 1798 - 22 Dec 1883)

"One of grandmother's brothers, Henry Barfield, was among those who left for the lone star state. He became a prosperous farmer after settling in East Texas. His sons, Lewis, Henry, and Alfred, did well too, and had good homes, which I had the pleasure of seeing when I was in Texas in 1892, and again in 1905. These were relatives that we were proud of. My cousin, Dora Colvin, married a son of one of the daughters of Uncle Henry. His name was Henry Hardy. He too, was a fine young man I was glad to know. Dora, and their one son, Henry, have long since passed to "another world," and since death, as I said before, I've seemed to lose sight of our Texas relatives." Aunt Betty Hughes.
