Obituary
Ruhanna Jane Newlin was born near Plainfield, Hendricks Co., Ind, 4th month, 5th, 1846, where she lived until the age of eleven years, when she with her widowed mother Ruth Newlin, two brothers and one sister, moved to Iowa in a covered wagon in 1857 settling where the town of Stuart now stands. In 1865 they removed to Dallas Co.
Many hardships were to be met with by them all, Jennie, as she was called, did all she could to lighten the heavy burden which rested so heavily on her mother's shoulders. She made use of every opportunity to learn and at the age seventeen began to teach school and help the family, a vocation which she followed until married to Curtis H. Barnett 11th month, 3rd, 1870. Their home was near Earlham for several years.
Six children were born to them all of whom and her husband survive her to mourn their loss. She was a member of the Conservative Friends and although she endeavored to live up to the tenets of her own faith she was charitable toward those of others. Being of a ready pen she often used this gift in the service of the church, also keeping up correspondence with a large circle of friends who appreciated her letters. Kindness to the poor and those in trouble was a marked feature in her character.
