My grandmother's name was Emma Dennis Barr and her Father was W. A. Barr, born in Missouri on 6 July 1847. W.A. moved to Lexington, MS at some point and Emma was born there on 20 October 1884. Emma married Walter H. Moore (1873-1950), my grandfather and my namesake.

I believe that W.A.'s father was Hezakia Granfield Barr (Born 2 September 1803), but can not confirm that, no matter how hard I search.

The Barr family in Lexington had a general store and later a car dealership (so I heard). If anyone who is researching the Barr could help, I would really appreciate it.
