Bare History from my notes


Chapter One: Bare History in Germany and Switzerland

The Bare family moved to Augusta County, Virginia from Philadelphia in the late 1700’s.

Chapter Two: John & Barbara Bare


Rockingham County, Virginia history. John Bare married Barbara. Before leaving Virginia, John left his son John, Jr. his property. According to Chronicles of the Scotch-Irish Settlement in Virginia by ______, “4th February 1752. Jacob Bare and Barbara to John Bare. Little Fork Run of North River Shanando; corner Charles Robinson.”
Owen Christian Bare was born in Pennsylvania on December 4, 1782. He married Catherine Pierce (she went by the nickname Polly) and together they had twelve children. Owen married Margaret Cummings after Catherine’s death. He died while living in Jefferson, Illinois, on June 5, 1864. He is buried at Mount Catherine Christian Cemetery in Woodlawn which is part of Jefferson County, Illinois. Photographs of his grave can be found at http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=46314427.
William Jacob Bare was born in Tennessee on April 14, 1809 when his parents were en route from Virginia to Indiana. Along with Owen and Polly were Owen's parents, Jacob and Barbara Bare and Owen's brothers and sisters except little brother John who stayed in Augusta, Virginia until his death. His first wife was Nancy Copple. Ted Copple, the famous newscaster, is a distant cousin of our family. William Jacob and Nancy had three children together. After Nancy passed away, William Jacob married Elizabeth Williams in Illinois. He passed away in Piggott, Arkansas, although no death record has been located. Piggott was originally in the county of Greene but Greene County was split and made into Clay County later on.

Unfortunately the Federal Census records from 1890 were lost forever in a fire in January 1921.
In 1900 Dicie is listed as Head of Household on the Federal Census and is widowed. Her father and mother were born in Tennessee. She was born in February 1857 and she was 43 years old at the time of the census. She had been married for 23 years and had a total of 11 children, 7 of whom were still alive. Two sons were listed as living with her: Lewis, 16 and David, 8. Lewis was born in November 1883 and David was born September 1891. They were both born in Arkansas. Also living with Dixie are two boys, Joe and Ollin Hardin. Joe is listed as a nephew while Ollin is listed as a son (mistake?). Joe is 20 years old and Ollin is 12- both were also born in Arkansas.
Dicie may have married a J. N. Barnwell on 8/29/1901, however more evidence is needed.
David Christian Bare and Nessie Hunsaker were both residents of Malden, Missouri, which is a city in the county of Dunklin. David and Nessie were married on February 21, 1913.
In 1920 David Christian Bare was living in Cotton Hill, a township in the county of Dunklin in Missouri. He was 29 years old and was married to Nessie Hunsaker. At that time they had three children: five-year old Goldie, Louise was three, and Harold was one. David’s mother Dicie is living with them and is 64 years old. Cotton Hill is in what is called “The Cotton Belt.” Several inhabitants make their living as sharecroppers. My grandmother told me a story once about working in the cotton fields and how bad her back would hurt from picking.

Bare research notes: John and Dicey Bare of Piggott, Arkansas


My guesses at the Bare family research


The 1880 census lists an Em Brown as living with John and “Dier” Bare. She is listed as a sister-in-law and was 20 years old. Em Brown could not be John’s sister since her father was born in Alabama, and John’s father was born in Tennessee (or Illinois as indicated on other census records), unless they are ½ siblings. It seems that if she were married to John’s brother her last name would have been Bare, unless the census taker recorded her maiden name (unlikely since it seems the census takers always used a woman’s married name).
She also couldn’t be “Dier’s” sister because Dier’s father was born in Illinois, unless they are ½ sisters (both their mothers were born in Tennessee).
It seems most likely that Em Brown was married to a brother of Dier and was maybe widowed, or for some reason was living with the Bares without her husband. Em is not a relation of Dicey. She was a relation of the woman Joshua Bare (John’s eldest half-brother) married.
UPDATE 8/26/11: I believe I found Dicie Bare’s maiden name. I found a Dicie Harris who was living in Greene County, Arkansas during the 1870 census. The age matches and according to the census she was born in Tennessee, which matches the birth place of Dicie in the 1880 and 1900 census. Greene County was later divided and Clay County began from Greene.
UPDATE 11/14/11: I found Dicey’s death certificate. She died in 1928 in Malden, MO and was buried in Piggott, AR. Her maiden name WAS Harris which means her father was Joshua John Harris and her mother was Martha. According to the death certificate Dicey was born in Weakley County, TN.
UPDATE 7/31/12: I believe “Em” Brown is actually E. G. Brown. According to the 1880 census this EG Brown was a 10 year old female living in the household of W. E. Brown. She is listed as a daughter of WE and Luiza Brown. Also in the same household is Dicey’s brother G. M. Harris, aged 21. The reason I believe they are the same person is because the handwriting on the census very much looks like “EM.” Upon close examination you can tell it’s E. G. The age of E. G. matches the age that “Em” would have been in 1880- 20.


A handwritten note in my mother’s handwriting has the word ‘rape’ written near John Bare’s name. When asked about this my mother couldn’t remember exactly why- she was taking notes as my Grandma Stricklin talked. According to my mother, my grandmother did not like talking about her family.
“Ending in Piggott, Clay County, Arkansas, where my father Robert James Bare was born, I was able to trace the family back through Missouri, Indiana, Ohio and ending in Virginia. The key character is (William) Jacob Bare who founded the Massanutten Church in the 1600s and which still stands today. He married Nancy Copple who is related to the newsman Ted Copple… Some of the records will be challenging, if not impossible to get for two reasons. One, the boundaries between the states changed so you have to know which year and in which state. Second, there was a fire in the courthouse in Missouri which burned many of the old records.”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JOSHUA BARE, farmer and stock raiser of St. Francis Township, is a fair sample of what can be accomplished by industry and perseverance. Although starting life with a limited amount of this world's goods, he is now one of the substantial farmers of the county, and is the owner of 240 acres of land in the home place, with 160 acres cleared, on which he has good buildings. Aside from this he is the owner of another tract of land in the township, one and a quarter miles from the home place, consisting of 160 acres of timber land. He also possesses some 320 acres in the St. Francis bottoms, with about 100 acres cleared, and has an interest in 205 acres of other lands, all the result of industry and good management. Mr. Bare was born in Crawford County, Ind., December 13, 1833, and is the son of Jacob Bare and Nancy (Copple) Bare, the latter of German descent. The father was born in Virginia but was reared in Indiana. After marriage he settled in Crawford County of that State, where he followed farming until about 1843, when he moved to Illinois and settled in Jefferson County. He resided there up to 1868, when he came to Arkansas, and located in what is now Clay County. Here he died in February 1877. He served as sheriff and deputy sheriff in Indiana, and was quite a prominent man. Joshua Bare was reared in Jefferson County, Ill., and came to Arkansas in 1855, locating in Clay County, but what was then Greene County, and entered eighty acres of land. He then bought eighty acres near Brown's Ferry, resided there about fifteen years, after which he sold this, and bought the place where he now lives. He has been four times married; first to Miss Susan Williams; then to Nancy Brown, who bore him one daughter, Peggy A., wife of John Nettle; his next marriage was to Mrs. Nettle, a widow, who bore him four children: Clarissa (wife of Wiley Thomas, Joshua, Bettie and Arabella. Mr. Bare's fourth marriage was to Mrs. Marietta Sarver, a widow, and the daughter of Jacob Sarver. Three children were born to this union: Jacob, Mattie and John Harry. When Mr. Bare first came to the State it was a comparative wilderness, and for about eleven winters he was engaged in trapping. He has killed bear, wolves, wild cats, lots of deer, turkey and small game. He would average about $200 worth of furs annually at that business. Mr. Bare has been a member of the I. O. O. F. for thirteen years. Mrs. Bare belongs to the Christian Church. An interesting volume might be written of many of Mr. Bare's hunting expeditions, but space will permit mention of only the following: In 1867, one of his neighbors, Billy Maner, a single man, had struck camp some seven miles south of where our subject lived in a wild locality on Old River. Mr. Bare went on one occasion to spend the night with him, but found the unsuccessful hunter without food. Starting the next morning with a determination to return only after he shot something, he traveled some distance, occasionally seeing game which could not be secured. Later on, while not far from camp, he killed tow wolves, and being a humorous disposition, the thought was suggested to pass off this meat upon the unsuspecting Billy as venison. Bringing a portion of the animal to headquarters (together with a squirrel), and assuring him that a large buck had been killed, the mess was eaten by the victim of Mr. Bare's joke, with a casual remark as to the toughness, etc. Subsequently the truth was told. Imagination rather than words can picture the result of such a revelation. In 1876 a three-days' hunt was indulged in by Mr. Bare, two of his nephews and a little negro boy.(note: If this is John Bare’s uncle, John Bare would have been 21 years old) (8/16/11: It appears that John Bare was a half-brother of Joshua’s) Starting with a cart and yoke of oxen, they drove into a bottom farm, proceeding horse-back until about a mile from their camping ground, when fresh bear tracks were discovered. Before very long an effort to secure bruin was commenced, and proved fruitful. While waiting for help to remove the animal (which weighed about 400 pounds) a large buck was killed by Mr. Bare. These furnish but mere instances of his good fortune with the gun and rifle.

RE: John Bare… I’m having a difficult time establishing that the John Bare in Piggott, AR during the 1880 census is the son of William Jacob Bare. John claims on the 1880 census that he was born in Tennessee. However, in subsequent censuses both Dicie and David claim he was born in Illinois. I did find a John Bare, son of William Jacob and Elizabeth Williams, whose age matches John Bare, born in Jefferson County, Illinois on the 1860 census. I found a reference to the VA/TN/IN/IL/AR Bares having passed through Jefferson County, Tennessee on their way to Indiana. I believe it was here that William Jacob Bare was born. I checked the 1860 census in Jefferson County, TN but did not find a John Bare. I need to establish that John Bare was actually born in Illinois and not Tennessee like the 1880 census says.
5/24/12: For the first time I viewed the actual 1900 census. Dicey said that John was born in Tennessee.
Update 11/1/11: According to Una she believes John is Joshua’s half-brother and Una has also uncovered evidence that confirms this. Una says that the census shows John was born in IL, not TN. Una lives in Piggott, AR and has access to the records.
Nora Hardin (Adaline Bare’s daughter): The 1910 Census in Payne, Clay County, Arkansas, lists Nora Hardin, age 15, as living with a family called Farmer. Is this the same person?

Bare notes: John & Dicey Bare of Piggott, Arkansas

According to the 1880 Census of Clay County, AR:
John Bare was 25 years old, his wife “Dier” was 24 years old. This matches the age of “Dicie,” who was born in 1856. In 1880 they had a daughter, Adaline, who was 3 years old. John Bare is listed as a Farmer while his wife “Keeps house.”


According to the 1900 Census of St. Francis Township in Clay County, AR:
Dicie is listed as Head of Household and is widowed. Her father and mother were born in Tennessee. Her birthday was in February 1857 and she was 43 years old at the time of the census. She had been married for 23 years and had a total of 11 children, 7 of which were still alive. Three sons were listed as living with her: Lewis 16 and David 8 and Ollin 12. Lewis was born in November 1883 and David was born September 1891. They were both born in Arkansas. Also living with Dicie is Joe Hardin. Joe is listed as a nephew. Joe is 20 years old and Ollin is 12- both were also born in Arkansas. Update 11/1/11: According to Una Pollard Ollin “Olie” is listed as Ollin Bare on his marriage certificate to Ellen Love. Therefore Ollin is a fourth child of Dicey and John’s.
UPDATE 7/31/12: According to the actual 1880 census Joe Hardin is listed as the son of Logan Hardin and Sarah Harris Hardin- Sarah is a sister of Dicey’s. The 1880 census places them in St. Francis, Clay County, AR.
A note I wrote down says that Dicie married a J. N. Barnwell on 8/29/1901 but I didn’t record where I found this information. Update 11/1/11: Per Una this information is correct although they divorced at some point as J.N. remarries.
This census lists John Bare as being born in Tennessee. Is it possible he was born in Weakley County- the same as Dicey? Need to check records.
Marriage License from Dunklin County, MO in 1913:
David Bare marries Nessie Hunsaker. David and Nessie are listed as both being from Malden, MO, which is a city in the county of Dunklin. They were married on February 21st.
According to the 1920 Census from Cotton Hill in Dunklin County, MO:
David’s father was born in Illinois. His mother is listed as “Dicie” and her birth was in Tennessee. David was born ‘about’ 1891 and his wife was Nessie Hunsaker. At that time they had three children (Goldie 5, Louiesa 3, and Harold 1). Dicie is living with David & Nessie and is 64 years old.
According to the 1870 Census from Mount Vernon, Jefferson, IL:
No Bares are listed at all in the census. I had read an account that said the Bares moved to Arkansas in the 1860s, but Elizabeth and the children were not mentioned. I wanted to check and see if they stayed behind in Illinois. No record in the census that they did.
Found on Ancestry.com:
Adeline Bare, daughter of John and Dicey, married T. J. Hardin in Clay County, AR. I was not able to view the actual record since I would have to pay. Also listed is J. Jr. Bare married to a Lizzie. Is this John, Jr., son of John and Dicey?
1930 Census in Dunklin, Missouri:
Could not view the actual record on Archives.com, but found a transcribed record for Dave & Nessie Bare. The children are listed but Dicie is not listed as still living with them. Did she pass away before 1930?
Harris Family Notes:
According to the 1870 census they were living in Concord, Greene County, AR.
They were not living there in the 1860 census. For the 1880 census I checked both Greene and Clay Counties and they were not listed, either.
Not living in Bradley County during the 1860 census.


Butter vs. Butler Mystery Solved?

While tracing my genealogy back to William the Conqueror, I noted that the Butler family of Ireland suddenly became the 'Butter' family in Sussex, England. This Butter family then married into the Coggeshall family and imigrated to the United States.

I remember how I panicked when I saw the surname of Butter!

I thought, "OMG my ancestors were Butters- not Butlers- and therefore I'm not a descendant of the Plantagenets!"

I have studied the art of Calligraphy for about 30 years, and I love the beautiful handwriting that used to be used with pen and ink.

If you write the name 'Butler' this way, you will notice that the cross bar in the 'T' also flows through the 'L' which is next to it.

I imagine that some transcriber, pouring through old, yellowed pages of parchment, made the mistake of thinking 'Butler' was 'Butter' and wrote it down as such.

This is the only thing that makes sense to me and I believe the Butters were, in fact, Butlers. I would love to see the original records in England so I can be 100% certain.
