I'm looking for information on the Barber family of LaPorte, IN. Charles
Wood BARBER born Aug 3, 1817 died in LaPorte, IN Mar 11, 1876. He was
married to Harriet Newell LATHROP BARBER who was born in Warsaw, NY on Oct
16, 1830 and died Feb 20, 1919 in Philadelphia, PA. My search now focuses
on William Lathrop BARBER (my great grandfather) born May 1863 in Indiana
(location uncertain-possibly LaPorte). He died in LaPorte in 1938 and is
buried at the Springville Free Methodist Church Cemetery in Springville, IN.
William's sister was Stella Phiena BARBER WOODARD. She was born July 17,
1854 in LaPorte. This leads me to wonder if William was also born in
LaPorte. If anyone has information on the Barber's I would love to hear
from you. Good hunting, Craig Tidball craig_tidball(a)compuserve.com
