Does anyone have any info on this lady? She is my 3rd great-grandmother, she married JOHN
M. BARKER, 28 JUL 1847 in Warrick co, Ind. They had 2 sons SIMON b. 1847/48 and JOHN EVIN
b. 1 JAN 1852. LAVINIA died 14 Mar 1852 from a boiler explosion on the steamship
POCAHONTAS, while traveling on the Arkansas River. Her husband died 3 years later and I
find the boys living with a WILLIAM MCDONALD and his wife SUSAN. Can anyone tell me who
these people are, perhaps an uncle and aunt? I descend from John Evin Barker.
