George Washington Vest's first wife Eliza Barker was born sometime between 1820 &
1825 in Indiana and died sometime between 1846 - 1850. She is mentioned in the will of her
father which is date 1853. She is deceased. She was the daughter of Obediah T. Barker and
Mary Stocker. There were several Obediah Barker's in Greene Co., Indiana at that time
and it is easy to get them confused.
Eliza's father Obediah T. Barker is the son of Thomas Barker, Sr. and Martha Truax,
while the Obediah T. Barker that married Sarah Cochrane is the son of Ewel Barker &
Amelia Stillwell. The Obediah Barker who married Nancy A. Record is the brother of Eliza
Barker Vest.
