hi cherylhb,
do you have Sarah's maiden name which would make research much easier as there were many William Barnett
I think it may have been Sarah McKeown who married William 'Willie' Herbert Barnett in 1896
Correct ??
Hi, Sarah's maiden name was McKeown. William was William Herbert Barnett. I don't know who her parents were or where Sarah was born. I have been told Kihi Kihi but that has not been confirmed.
HiCheryl. I also have Barnett relatives and found your Sarah in my file. Her father was Henry KcKeown who married Joanna McCartin in 1876. Sarah Jane was born in 1876 and died in 1966. I also have that she was born in Kihikihi. She had 4 sisters:
2. Margaret born in 1879. In 1902 she married Oswald Gallaher (1876-1931). They had 2 children - Douglas Stewart G and Leota.
3. Bertha Leonora born 1881. She married John Lindsay Bullot in 1905. They had two children - Dorothy Naomi (1905-1952) and Margaret Joyce (1909)
4 John born 1884
5Joanna born 1886
I cannot verify any of this. Rosalie Howard
