About Me

My photo
I’m a Christian, first and foremost. It is the first description I can give of myself. Next I was blessed with a wonderful family. I had wonderful parents and we were raised in a Christian family with lots of love. I have 2 younger sisters and their children are like my own. Now they have grown up and have children of their own and they are like our grandchildren. My father was a TVA Engineer when I was born and we lived all over Tennessee my first 8 yrs of life but then we moved to upstate SC and have been here ever since. One of my interests is genealogy and I’ve been blessed that both my husband’s family and my family have lived around us within a 300 mile radius for hundreds of years which makes it easier. My husband and I have been married for over 44 years. He still works but is close to retirement. I’m disabled. I spend a lot of time on my interests and I use my blog to document my projects much like a scrapbook.

Genealogy - Samuel William Barnes and Margaret Ann Click

 Samuel William Barnes was born between 1822-1825 in Davidson County, NC to Richard Gilmer Barnes III(DOB About 1780 in Rowan County, NC; DOD About 1854 in Davidson County, NC) and Fanny Johnson (DOB About 1787 in Rowan County, NC; DOD About 1875 in Davidson County, NC). He was the 6th of 8 children.


Rowan county was formed in 1753 from the northern part of Anson County. Matthew Rowan, acting governor of North Carolina from 1753 to 1754, was it’s namesake. Rowan County was a large pioneer territory in western NC with an indefinite western boundary. Rowan included the entire northwestern sector of North Carolina. Over time, its size was reduced as a number of counties were split off. This began in 1770, when the eastern part of it was combined with the western part of Orange County to become Guilford County, North Carolina. In 1771 the northeastern part of what remained of Rowan County became Surry County. In 1777 the western part of Rowan County became Burke County. In 1788 the western part of the now much smaller Rowan County became Iredell County. In 1822 the eastern part of the county became Davidson County. Finally, in 1836 the part of Rowan County north of the South Yadkin River became Davie County. 



So Samuel William Barnes was born about the time Davidson County, NC was formed. During his life these were the Presidents of the United States: James Monroe, John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, Martin Van Buren, William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, James K. Polk, Zachary Taylor, Millard Filmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson, Ulysses Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, Chester A. Arthur and Grover Cleveland. He was too old to participate in the War of Northern Aggression as he was in his late 40’s when it started and his children were too young to serve but it would have an impact on his life as he had brother, nephews, in-laws who served and/or died in the Civil War. He was a farmer and before The War, he listed his farm with a value of $1,800 (a good amount in those days) and after The War, he listed his farm with a value of $500.

Samuel William Barnes married Margaret Ann Click (DOB 1822-1825 in North Carolina to ? and ? ) about 1845 in Davidson County, NC on 8/16/1848 in Davidson County, NC. They had 6 children that I’m aware of:
1) Richard Barnes (DOB About 1849 in Davidson County, NC; DOD Between 1860-1870 in Davidson County, NC). He was listed with his family in the 1860 U.S. Census but he is NOT listed with them in the 1870 U.S. Census. He would have been 21 yrs old for the 1870 U.S. Census. Did he die before the 1870 U.S. Census or ?

2) Sarah Barnes (DOB 6/19/1851 in Davidson County, NC; DOD 10/22/1919 in Norwood, Stanly County, NC) married Eli Leonard (aka Ely Leonard) (DOB About 1855 in North Carolina; DOD Between 1880-1910). Leonard is the head of the family in the 1880 U.S. Census but I couldn’t find this family in the 1900 U.S. Census and Sarah Barnes Leonard is living with her son, William Samuel Leonard, and his family in the 1910 U.S. Census and she is listed as a widow. They had 3 children that I’m aware of: William Samuel Leonard (married Lula V. House); John Cleveland Leonard (married 1st Lula Russell and 2nd Flora V. Goodman); Martha Leonard (married ?).

3) America Mariah Barnes (DOB 11/6/1853 in Davidson County, NC; DOD 11/13/1934 in Rowan County, NC) married Richard A. Swicegood (aka Richmond A. Swicegood) (DOB 8/13/1840 in Davidson County, NC; DOD 2/19/1910 in Rowan County, NC). They had 5 children that I’m aware of: Marshall Clingman Swicegood (married Mary E. Sheens); Charlie Swicegood (married ?); Luther Franklin Swicegood (married Minnie Lee Daniel); Duffy Swicegood (married ?); Horace Lee Swicegood (never married).

4) Samuel Barnes (DOB About 1856 in Davidson County, NC; DOD Between 1860-1870 in Davidson County, NC). He is listed with his family in the 1860 U.S. Census but he is not listed with his family in the 1870 U.S. Census and he would only have been 14 yrs old so I assume he died between 1860-1870.

5) Cynthia Barnes (DOB About 1859 in Davidson County, NC; DOD Between 1860-1870). She is listed with her family in the 1860 U.S. Census but she is not listed with her family in the 1870 U.S. Census and she would only have been 11 yrs old so I assume she died between 1860-1870.)

6) William L. Barnes (DOB 4/10/1863 in Davidson County, NC; DOD 7/1/1932 in Davidson County, NC) married Mary L Weant (aka Mary WintMary Went) (DOB 10/3/1860 in Rowan County, NC; DOD 12/17/1939 in Salisbury, Rowan County, NC). They had 8 children that I’m aware of : Margaret “Maggie” J. Barnes (married ? Mauldley (sic)); Flora A. Barnes (married James M. Monroe); Charlie Richard Barnes (married Irene Harvelle); William Anderson Barnes (married ? ); Minnie Victoria Barnes (married William David Crowell); Walter Wilson Barnes (married Jesse E. Drye); Arthur David Barnes (married Mary Pearl Brown); Luther Lindsey Barnes (married Annie Mae Frederick).

Samuel William Barnes and Margaret Ann Click divorced between 1870-1880. I can’t help but wonder what happened. It evidently wasn’t an amicable divorce (I guess none were back then). I found this concerning their divorce and settlement:

Pleading Trust Deed
Husband and Wife
ACTIONS
1 A deed, after reciting that differences existed between a husband and wife, and that they desired to adjust such differences and provide “an adequate and sufficient support” for the wife, conveyed land to a trustee for the purpose of allowing the husband and wife to have the rents and profits, and to support the wife “in such manner she has heretofore lived;” and the trustee signed the deed. In an action by the wife against the trustee and her husband, plaintiff alleged that the trustee had neglected and refused to support her out the rents and profits; that she was 70 years, old and infirm, and had been for years dependent on charity; and that the rents and profits of the amounted to a certain sum per annum. The trustee denied that he was such, and alleged that his co defendant had possession of the land, receiving the rents and profits. Plaintiff demanded half the rents and profits for each year, and also general relief. Held, that it was error to dismiss the action, as the facts alleged entitled plaintiff to equitable relief, if not to a judgment at law.
2 Plaintiff is entitled to that part of the rents and profits of the current year which is necessary for her support, and to have paid debts contracted for her support in past years which were charged on the rents and profits, but is not entitled to have a share of rents and profits accumulated from year to year since the execution of the deed, as the provision was for her current support.
3 Though Code NC 78, provides that when a married woman brings an action her husband must be joined, except when the action concerns her separate property, or is between herself and her husband, such action should not be dismissed for failure of the husband to join, as it appears that he is hostile to plaintiff’s rights, and she may be entitled to redress as against him.
4 The deed is not prima facie invalid on the ground that it was made in view of a separation of husband and wife.
Appeal from superior court, Davidson county; J. H. Merrimon Judge
The following is so much of the case stated on appeal as is necessary to an understanding of the opinion: Upon reading the pleadings and the introduction of the deed in trust attached to the complaint, his honor intimated an opinion that, according to the complaint itself, and a proper construction of the trust deed, the plaintiff had no cause of action against the trustee, Sowers. It appeared in evidence that at the time the deed in trust was written by the late J. M. McCorkle the plaintiff was living with her son-in-law, Swicegood, apart from Samuel W. Barnes, her husband; that she had instituted proceedings for divorce and alimony in Davidson superior court; that after the deed was executed case was discontinued without any decree for separation, and that she continued to live with her daughter until the present time, except for a short time when she stayed with a brother in Davie county; that she during this time had been dependent upon others for a support, that twice after the execution of the trust, and that within a year or two after its execution, she called upon defendant Sowers and asked for help from farm; that at one time, according to Mr. SwicegoodSowers said “Yes it is my business to haul you the grain but I will have to be paid from the farm.” At another time he wrote her the letter. There was evidence tending to show that at one time the plaintiff was notified by Barnes not to come to see her son who lived with Barnes. On another occasion she sent her son-in-law to Barnes to ask for grain from the farm and he (Barnes)  refused to send her any unless the plaintiff, her daughter, her daughter’s husband, and her brother in Davie county would all sign a receipt. It was not insisted on the part of the defendants that she had ever received anything (defendant testified that 11 years ago he had placed in the kitchen at home a sack of flour and meal for her to send for and that both sacks had been standing where he placed them ever since) or that defendant Sowers had offered to interpose and collect rents for her benefit from Barnes, who occupied the farm. It was alleged by Sowers that at the time the trust was executed, Barnes and wife had agreed that Barnes should remain in possession and control of the premises, and that plaintiff should send to him for her part of the rents. The plaintiff offered evidence in contradiction of this. It was in evidence that the plaintiff was old; that she had been sick much of her time, and was now unable to attend court. The plaintiffs moved for judgment upon the verdict. Motion denied; and on motion of defendants the action was dismissed, from which judgment the plaintiff appeals. The following are the material parts of the deed of trust: “North Carolina Davidson county. Whereas differences exist between Samuel W. Barnes and his wife, Margaret A. Barnes, and whereas they are anxious and desirous to adjust such differences, and to provide an adequate and sufficient support for Margaret A. Barnes, this indenture, therefore, witnesseth that for and in consideration of the premises, together with the further consideration of one dollar in hand paid to the said Samuel W. Barnes by Philip Sowers, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the said Samuel W. Barnes has this day bargained, granted, and sold, and by these presents doth hereby convey, unto the said Philip Sowers, the following tract of land, to wit, lying and being in the county of Davidson, and bounded as follows, [describing it ;]to have and to hold to the said Philip Sowers, to the following uses and none other: That the said Sowers shall hold the said lands, and to allow the said Samuel W. Barnes and Margaret A. Barnes to have the rents and profits thereof for their own use and behoof; and, further, that out of the said rents and profits to support the said Margaret Barnes in such a manner as she has heretofore lived, and after the death of the said Samuel W. Barnes and Margaret A. Barnes, the said Philip Sowers shall convey unto * * * In testimony whereof,” etc (Signed by Barnes and Sowers)
M. H. Pinnix for appellant. Robbins & Raper, for appellees.
Merrimon, C. J. (after stating the facts as above) No question was raised by the pleadings, or on the trial in the court below, so far as appears as to the validity
v. 10s.E. no. 12-20
of the deed of trust in question. It was suggested, but not pressed on the argument in this court, that it was invalid, upon the ground that it was made in contemplation of a separation of husband and wife, parties to it, and with that view. If this is so, and there exists substantial ground for the contention, the deed should be put in question in that aspect of it by a proper pleading. We cannot, upon the face of it, see and determine that it is or is not invalid for the cause suggested. For the present purpose, and as it appears, we must treat and interpret it as a valid deed for the chief purpose specified in it, if such purpose is sufficiently expressed. Generally and ordinarily, when a married woman brings an action, her husband must join with her in it, except “when the action concerns her separate property” or “when the action is between herself and her husband.” Code 178. But if he will not join her as he ought to do, she may make him a party defendant if need be. McGlennery vs. Miller 90 NC 215. In this case it appears with sufficient certainty that the husband will not join his wife, the plaintiff. Indeed, he is hostile to her alleged rights and the remedy by which she seeks to assert the same; and ,moreover, it may turn out that she is entitled to some measure of redress as against him in connection with his co-defendant; so that the action could not be dismissed upon the ground that the husband did not join in it with his wife.
We are clearly of opinion that the action as it appears to us from the record proper and the case stated on appeal should not have been dismissed. The plaintiff alleges the deed (the chief purpose of it) was to provide a support for herself; that the defendant trustee and his co-defendant have wholly neglected and refused to supply her reasonable wants and a support out of the rents and profits of the land; that the trustee has wholly neglected, at all times, to execute the trust; that she is 70 years old, poor, sick, and infirm, and has had for years to rely upon the bounty of her kinsfolk for such support as she has had; that she has demanded of the trustee that he execute the trust; that he has always refused and neglected to do so, to her great injury; that the rents and profits of the land are equal to $300 per annum, etc. The defendants admit some of the material allegations and deny others, and particularly the defendant trustee denies that he is such in any active or responsible sense, and alleges that his co-defendant has had possession of the land and received rents and profits thereof. The pleadings, taken in connection with the deed, make a case in which the plaintiff is surely entitled to some relief, and she is entitled to assert her rights in this action. Although a judgment at law for half the rents and profits of each year since the deed was executed is formally demanded in the complaint, general relief is also demanded; and the facts alleged, if, indeed, they are such, entitle the plaintiff to equitable relief. The action is both legal and equitable in its nature and purpose, and the court can proceed therein to compel the defendants to a due execution of the trust, and direct an account of the rents and profits of the land, and make all other necessary inquiries and directions to that end. The allegations of the complaint are not so definite in all respects as they might and should be. Still the court can see the scope of the plaintiff’s cause of action, and it may, if need be, require the allegations to be made more precise and direct. If the complaint alleges a cause or causes of action at law, the plaintiff will be entitled only to a judgment at law; but where it alleges sufficiently a cause of action equitable in its nature, the court will give such relief as the plaintiff may be entitled to have. Indeed, the court will, in a proper case, administer the principles both of law and equity in the same action. It seems that the defendants have misunderstood the nature, purpose, and importance of the deed now to be interpreted, else they have willfully been derelict in the discharge of what it made a plain duty on the part of the trustee. It is recited in the preamble of the deed that its purpose is to adjust differences, and “to provide an adequate and sufficient support” for the plaintiff. This was the leading, chief purpose of it. To that end the land was conveyed to the defendant trustee to have and to hold the same to the following uses, and none other, that the said Sowers, the trustee, shall hold the said lands and to allow the said Samuel W. Barnes and Margaret A. Barnes (the plaintiff) to have the rents and profits thereof for their own use and behoof; and, further, that out of the said rents and profits to support the said Margaret Barnes “in such manner as she has heretofore lived,” etc. The defendant trustee signed this deed, and thus accepted the trust and became chargeable with it according to its true intent and meaning. This signing on his part was not a mere meaningless ceremony; it was important, and imported that he accepted the title to the land charged with the trust. He was to have and to hold it for the specified uses, to wit, particularly to allow his co-defendant and the plaintiff to have the rents and profits thereof for their own use and behoof, but with the further express provision as to the wife “that out of the said rents and profits to support the said Margaret Barnes [the plaintiff] in such manner as she has heretofore lived.” that is, out of such rents and profits she was to have such support, if they were adequate for that purpose though it might take the whole. This must be so else, this further provision is meaningless. That this interpretation is correct is the more manifest because it harmonizes with the recital in the preamble in the deed, which declares that the purpose of the latter is “to provide an adequate and sufficient support” for the plaintiff. The clear purpose was to provide for her such support as she had, before the execution of the deed, been accustomed to have, and that she should have devoted to that purpose so much of the rents and profits of the land as might be necessary. The surplus was intended for the husband. The deed does not provide that the plaintiff shall have one-half, one-third, or any definite part, of the rents and profits, or accumulations therefrom, but current, “adequate and sufficient support.” What this is will depend on what she has, what she reasonably needs, her health, necessary incidental expenses, living in the like sphere and condition as she did before the provision was made for her. The plaintiff alleges that the defendant trustee has never allowed her such or any support out of the rents and profits of the land, and that she is entitled to have “her share” of the same accumulated from year to year ever after the date of the deed. We do not think so, because the purpose was to provide for her current support, and she neglected to enforce her rights, as she might have done from time to time through the courts. Gray vs West, 93 NC 442. If, however, in good faith, she contracted in any one or more years debts for her support, which debts she made a charge upon the rents and profits of the land of the year in which the debts were respectively so created, she would be entitled to have such debts paid by the defendant trustee if the rents and profits of such year were adequate for that purpose. But persons who made her gifts, or entertained her gratuitously, could not now be allowed to make charges against her on such account, and have the same paid as indicated above. The effect of the deed was to give the defendant trustee control of the land embraced by it, and it charged him to let the same, and see that it yielded rents and profits, and to allow the plaintiff to have the same for her support. He might have allowed his co-defendant, if he were responsible, to occupy and cultivate the land, as it seems he did do; but he should have required him to account annually for the rents and profits thereof, and devote so much of the same as might be necessary under the deed to the support of the plaintiff. It may be that he can still compel him to such account, and possibly in this action. But as to all this he will be advised by counsel. Treating the deed as valid, and interpreting it, as we have done, upon the pleadings, the court, we think, should have directed an account of the rents and profits of the land of the current year to be taken,- an ascertainment of what part thereof is necessary for the plaintiff’s support for that year, and what debts are outstanding against her for her support since the date of the deed, as indicated in this opinion and report of the whole to be made; and on the coming in of the report, in the absence of valid exceptions thereto, it should have given judgment directing the rents and profits, or the value thereof, to be paid to the plaintiff, and such debts created for her support to be paid, etc. The judgment dismissing the action must be set aside, and further proceedings had therein substantially as indicated in this opinion, unless and except the court shall see fit, in its discretion, to allow any proper amendments of the pleadings; and in that case it shall dispose of the action upon its merits as they may appear in the course of its further progress. To that end let this opinion be certified to the superior court It is so ordered.


Davidson County NC Heritage Book, published 1982, pg 39, #130, “Richard Barnes, b. 1780, d. 1854, was the son of Richard and Catherine (?) Barnes. On 11/21/1808 he married Frances “Fanny” Johnston, b. 1787, d. c1874. They are buried in the Churchland Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery. There is a rock wall around their graves with one rock hand engraved with ‘Barnes’. Richard bought his first land, consisting of 260 acres on the North Yadkin River and Ready Run, from Thomas Smith on 12/28/1815. He conveyed this to Thomas P. Ives 10/16/1817 who, in turn, conveyed it to Rowland Crump 9/19/1823. He began purchasing land on Swans Creek and Potts Creek in 11/1818 until, by 1839, he had accumulated over 800 acres. I think their home was between Churchland and Boone’s Cave. The children of Richard and Fanny were 1) Elizabeth, m. ? Nunnally; 2) Nancy, m. 7/13/1840 Burgess Thomason; 3) Sophia, b. c1811, m. 1st 4/23/1831 to William Wood, m. 2nd c1848 to Henry Beck; 4) John, b. 11/3/1816, d. 9/19/1892, m. 3/18/1841 Margaret Ratts; 5) Mary (Polly), b. c1820, m. George Beck, b. 10/1828; 6) Samuel W., b. c1822, d. 1896, m. Margaret ?; 7) Fannie, b. 6/29/1824, d. 5/7/1905, m. 8/29/1848 Moses Lamb; 8) Richard, b. c1828, m. Louisa ?. From the history of the Churchland Baptist Church which was organized as Pine Meeting Baptist Church in 1837 with 11 charter members, the names of Richard, Fannie and Nancy Barnes are found among this group. Richard Barnes appointed his son, Samuel W., as executor of his will which was written 9/28/1854. He left the homeplace to his son Richard after his wife’s death. He had already conveyed his sons John and Samuel W. 150 acres of land. Richard conveyed his inheritence to his brother, Samuel W., on 8/29/1856. The will of Fanny Barnes, dated 5/16/1874, mentions sons John and Samuel, and daus. Polly and Fanny. I think it safe to assume that the other children had either died or moved from the vicinity.” “Mary (Polly) Barnes, b. c1820, m. George Beck, b. 10/1828. The 1880 Census shows 3 children: Joseph b. c1850; Curtis b. c1859; and Mary b. c1854. After Mary’s death George married Amanda Grubb, daughter of John and Susie (Leonard) Grubb.” “Samuel W. Barnes, B. c1822, d. 10/5/1896, married Margaret A. ?, b. c1825, d. 7/1890. They had 4 children: Richard b. c1849; Sarah, m. Ely Leonard; America, b. c1854, m. Richard A. Swicegood, b. c1848 as the son of Richmond Swicegood and Mary (Polly) Miller; William L., b. c1863. Samuel and Margaret separated c1876, and she went to live with her daughter, America Barnes Swicegood. The property was intrusted to Philip Sowers, and he recorded these deeds in 1909. The 1880 census shows Jonathan and Albertine Williams and their children living with Samuel W. Barnes.” “Fannie Barnes, b. 6/29/1824, d. 5/7/1905, m. 8/29/1848 Moses Lamb, b. 4/26/1828, d. 4/14/1889. They are buried in Churchland Missionary Baptist Church near her parents. Their children were Mary Elizabeth, b. 6/10/1849, m. 3/13/1873 David Worth Barnes; Lewis F., b. 12/20/1852, d. 3/31/1901, m.

I do not have sources for Samuel William Barnes‘ death or Margaret Ann Click Barnes‘ death or where they are buried. They are not in the 1900 U.S. Census so they must have died between 1880-1900. If anyone has any sourced information on this family, please contact me at Mama.to.dogs@gmail.com.

Buried: 7/3/1932 in Salisbury, NC

*Paralysis agitans is now known as Parkinson’s Disease.  PD is   degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. The motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease result from the death of dopamine-generating cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain; the cause of this cell death is unknown. Early in the course of the disease, the most obvious symptoms are movement-related; these include shaking, rigidity, slowness of movement and difficulty with walking and gait. Later, cognitive and behavioural problems may arise, with dementia commonly occurring in the advanced stages of the disease.
