Hi: I've been going through your wonderful website on genealogy.com regarding the Barkers of Wake, NC. William C. Barker (b. @ > 1824) was the son of William and Zillah. He married the sister of my greatgreatgrandfather who was Mary Elizabeth Hurt Roberts after she was widowed in the Civil War and they had two sons, John Quinton and William > Barker. I have long looked for a death date and burial information for Mary Elizabeth; she is in the 1910 WV census in Ronceverte, Greenbrier County, having moved to WV after William C. Barker died in 1871 in Wake NC. Do you have any information about her or William C. Barker? Thank you very much,

And my reply...
I have attached a document showing what little information I have on Roberts herself. Of particular interest is the rather lengthy article related to her son, John Q. Barker, which was here in the Asheville, NC area. I have no information about Roberts' family, her parents or any siblings. I have fairly extensive information on her husband's family, that being my own. I can provide generations backward from what appears in this document if you would like (for the Barker family). Perhaps you can discern estimates which may prove helpful in learning more about Roberts from something contained here.
Here is an image of the first part of the information I shared. If you can share more, or anything, let me know. I know it ain't much, but...
