Hmm. Vickie, is he descended from the Barkers of Methuen? If so, we may have a cousin connection.
Hi Bill . . . hope you are feeling better today . . . unfortunately, at this time, all I have on our Jonathan is that his father's name is Asa Barker . . . and is said to have been born in Medford, Massachusetts . . . definitely need to spend some time working on this line . . . please do give me a holler if you see a connection . . . V. . . .
I think there is a connection. We are both descended from Richard Barker and his wife Joanna (last name unknown) from Andover, Ma.
Your Jonathan is descended from their son William.I'm descended from
their youngest son, Benjamin.
So, howdy cousin!
Hi Vickie, I have lots of ancestors from Bridgton, Maine, and one of them is a Jonathan!
