Notes:

Ira Morgan Barnhouse was born 14 Aug 1848 at Sharon, Noble County, Ohio. His youth was spent on a farm at the place of his birth. He enlisted in Co. B, 66th Ohio Volunteer Infantry* when but 15 years of age and served in the Union Army under Gen. Sherman on his triumphal [and unnecessarily destructive] "March to the Sea" through Georgia from Atlanta to Savannah then north through the Carolinas to Washington DC. He was honorably discharged at Louisville Kentucky July 20, 1865. He taught school in Ohio and Missouri from 1867 to 1873. He was married 3 Aug 1875 to Mary Francis Albin at Laurelville, Hocking County, Ohio to which union three children were born: Perl Travisd, Edna Maude, and Rose Ann Elizabeth. He engaged in various mercantile and industrial pursuits removing to Missouri, Nebraska, and Colorado in turn. He homesteaded February 1887 near Abbott, Washington County, Colorado. He was a Mason, having taken the degrees in Caldwell, Missouri at the age of 21. He was a Presbyterian by faith, having united with that church in 1876. His love of home and family gave him zeal and persistence in the field of human endeavor in their behalf. His wonderful energy but slight physical strength culminated in his enforced retirement from the more arduous labor of farm life in 1904 at which time he came to Akron, Colo. His confidence in its future was manifested in his real estate promotions at a time when many faltered. A nearly fatal accident** on 7 Nov 1907 from which he recovered through his power of will alone, left an imperfect cicatrice*** on his cheek. He was elected County Judge and began service in 1908. The facial problem he received in his accident, however, began to trouble him in 1911. It developed into cancer a year later and he was forced to resign his judgeship in 1912. The unequal struggle ended in his death at the Hahnemann Hospital in Kansas City, Mo., at four o'clock on the fourth day of April, 1914.

*Although the Ohio 66th participated in the Battle of Antietam (17 Sep 1862), I.M. Barnhouse enlisted too late to be a part of it. The battle (also known as the Battle of Sharpsburg, particularly in the South), was fought on September 17, 1862, near Sharpsburg, Maryland, at Antietam Creek. It was the first major battle in the American Civil War to take place on Northern soil and was the bloodiest single-day battle in American history, with about 23,000 casualties on both sides.
**The nature of this accident is not known. The cause of death as written on his death certificate was "Uremic poison, contributory, Cancer face". Apparently it was not a service-related cause of death.
***Cicatrice or Cicatrix, n. pl. Cicatrices (Med); 'si-k&-"triks, &-'kA-triks. The pellicle that forms over a wound or breach of continuity of the skin that completes the process of healing and subsequently contracts and becomes white forming a scar.

(Research):Census data have been a great source of confusion for Ira Morgan Barnhouse. In three US censuses in the state of Ohio:

o 1850 census for Morgan County, Noble Twp
George Barnhouse and Rose Ann family Hiram, age 2 (this is an error of great consequence; this is really Ira M)
o 1860 census for Noble County, Ohio
George Burnhouse and Rozann family
Morgan, age 10
o 1870 census for Noble County, Ohio
George Barnhouse and Rose A. family
Ira M. age 22
Considered as a whole, two of these three census data items are consistent with a birthdate in 1848 leading to the conclusion there was no separate child named Hiram in this family. As for 1860, descendants of Ira Morgan Barnhouse have learned that Ira was known as "Morgan" in his early years. My grandfather, Nelson Sears, wrote down that name in his journal where he had Morgan's birthdate as 14 Aug 1848.

(Medical):I hereby certify that I attended deceased from 12/26/1913 to 4/4/1914 that I last saw him alive on 4/4/1914 and that death occurred on the date stated above at 4 P.M. (signed) Dr O.A. Johnson MD, April 4, 1914, 1320 Main St, Kansas City, Missouri

Ira married Mary Francis Albin on 4 Aug 1875 in Laurelville, Hocking Co, Ohio. Mary (daughter of William Slater Albin and Elizabeth Ann Tribby) was born on 20 Oct 1854 in Laurelville, Hocking Co, Ohio; died on 8 Jan 1924 in Akron, Washington Co, Colorado; was buried on 10 Jan 1924 in Akron Cemetery, Washington Co, Colorado. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Mary Frances Albin Barnhouse was born 20 Oct 1854 at Laurelville, Hocking County,Ohio [to William Slater Albin (1823-1902 and Elizabeth Ann Tribby (1828-1914)] She departed this life 8 Jan 1924 at the age of 69 years, 2 months and 18 days. She was united in marriage to Ira Morgan Barnhouse on 4 Aug 1875 in Laurelville. To this union three children were born: Perl Travis, 31 May 1877, Edna Maude, 24 Apr 1879 (Mrs. Nelson Sears), and Rose Ann Elizabeth, 2 Aug 1895 (Mrs. Alva Wright) all residents of Washington County, who were at the bedside of their mother when the final call was answered that called her to a heavenly home where there is no sorrow or evil but peace and joy. Mr. and Mrs. Barnhouse moved to Nebraska in 1887, then later, in 1887, moved to a homestead in Colorado. In 1904 they moved to Akron, Washington County, Colorado where they made their home. Mrs. Barnhouse was a faithful member of the Presbyterian church and a very active worker up until a few years ago when she was not able to attend church but always had prayer meetings and song services at her home, always living a Christian life, and was always bright and cheerful, with all her severe illnesses.

Notes:

Obituary, Unionville (Missouri) Republican 3 Dec 1890 Died, of paralysis, Nov. 21, 1890, George Barnhouse. He was born Sept. 6, 1813 in Jefferson Co. Ohio. At the age of 27 he moved to Noble county, where he married Rosanna McCune. There were born to them ten children, eight of whom are still living. Seven were at his funeral.* He has been a Christian thirty-five years and a member of the M.E. church. He was confined to his bed for over two years and bore his affliction Christian-like. His companion [Rose Ann McCune] died Feb. 16, 1889 and [he] often asked where mother was. The remains were laid to rest beside her in the McCune grave yard, three miles east of Hartford. **I have only nine children; Michael died in 1851 ae 5 so he would be the one child not living in 1890. Therefore I have 9 children, 8 living in 1890.
In the 1880 Agricultural Census for Liberty Township, Putnam County Missouri: George Barnhouse was the owner of 40 tilled improved acres, 10 acres of meadow/pasture, 110 acres of unimproved woodland, farm was worth $1500. Value of farming implements and machinery was $150. Value of livestock was $250. Estimated value of all farm products sold, consumed, or on hand was $100: 3 acres of grassland, 4 tons of hay harvested, 3 horses, 1 milch cow, 3 other cattle, 1 calf dropped, 1 cattle purchased, 100 lbs of butter, 6 swine, 24 barnyard poultry, 20 acres of Indian corn producing 200 bushels, 1 bushel of dry beans, 100 pounds of maple sugar. - Unionville (Missouri) Republican (clipping, no date)
Estate of George Barnhouse (1785-1890), dec'd; filed 20 Nov 1890; #1019; heirs Hugh E. Barnhouse of Putnam Co. Mo., [relationship not given], daughter Minnie Fullerton of Putnam Co. Mo., sons, John Barnhouse, Charles Barnhouse, Thomas B. Barnhouse, Winifred S. Barnhouse and George S. Barnhouse all of Putnam Co, Mo., and son Ira M. Barnhouse of Arapahoe Co. Colorado.* - Putnam County, Missouri Estate Records
*Washington County was formed out of both Weld and Arapahoe counties in 1887 so Ira was actually residing in Washington County by 1890.

(Research): Removed Nelson Sears dob 12 Sep 1812 and "Steubenville" per Kay Barnhouse Stout. This done 3 Mar 2002. Also, death date changed from 20 Nov 1890 to 21 Nov 1890 to concur with Kay.
Kay Barnhouse Stout notes that George Jr was possibly living in younger brother Jacob's household at the time of the 1840 U.S. Census. In that census there are two males age 20-29 in the Jacob Barnhouse household in Noble Twp, Morgan Co, Ohio where one is obviously Jacob. Since George E. Barnhouse Jr does not appear in the federal censuses as head of household until 1850, it is quite possible that the other male in Jacob's household is brother George. However, census data of 1840 and before cannot discern that fact. - Abstract of clippings of items posted in the Unionville Republican from the Rootsweb Putnam County Ohio mailing list, Linda Nixon list manager.

George married Rose Ann McCune on 29 Jun 1842 in Morgan County, Ohio. Rose (daughter of Charles Tarrance McCune and Sabria (wife of Charles Tarrance McCune) [?]) was born on 23 Apr 1822 in New Jersey; died on 16 Feb 1889 in Putnam County, Missouri; was buried about Feb 1889 in McCune Cemetery, Putnam Co, Missouri.

Notes:

I have encountered several spellings of her given name: Rose Ann [most probable], Rosanna, Rosana, Roseann, and even Rosannah
From Putnam County News 21 Feb 1889: "Mrs. George Barnhouse, an aged lady residing in the east end of the county, died Saturday night [16 Feb 1889]."
