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.

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]."

George married Susannah Fuchs on 21 Mar 1805 in Loudoun County, Virginia. Susannah (daughter of Henrich Fuchs and Anna Eva Simon) was born on 1 Feb 1777 in Frederick County, Maryland; was christened on 20 Apr 1777 in Frederick County, Maryland; died on 17 Apr 1842 in Springfield Twp, Jefferson Co, Ohio; was buried on 20 Apr 1842 in Coleman-Watson Ridge Cemetery, Jefferson Co, Ohio. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

From History of Steubenville and Jefferson County, Ohio, the name Susannah Fuchs was Americanized to Susan Fox. From Dodd, Jordan R., et al.. Early American Marriages: Virginia to 1850 her name is Susannah Fox. On her gravestone her given name is spelled "Susannah". Therefore, to be consistent I will retain the Germanic spelling of both given and surname.
Gravestone Epitaph: My dearest friends, old, young & gay / Pause and my mouldering tomb survey / Prepare to die for recollect / That death, for age, hath no respect.

Summary of Carolyn McCune's research on Tarry McCuneA. On October 31, 1811, Charles may have arrived in the Port of Philadelphia aboard the "Harmony", a ship sailing from Londonderry, as there was a Charles McCoun who was listed as being on that ship. The Captain's name was Holkirk. The voyage took 70 days. B. In 1823-24, Charles and his family moved to Morgan County, Ohio where they may have settled near Belle Valley. They were members of St. Michael's Catholic Church built in 1841 at the site of St. Michael's Cemetery until 1900 when it was moved to Berne, Ohio about one mile away. C. From the "History of Noble County, Ohio" (L.H. Watkins and Co., 1887) 'Charles McCune and John Reed were both Irishmen and early settlers...St. Michael's Roman Catholic church was established in 1841. The building, a brick structure, was erected in that year through the efforts of Michael Archer and under the direction of Rev. Father Murphy. Michael Archer and his brothers, Simon and Nathan, with their families, constituted the original membership. Other early members were the Doyles, McCunes, Cullens, Harknesses and others. Prior to 1841 the settlement had been visited by Fathers Reed, McCallion and Finley. D. According to a deed provided by Morgan County Ohio Recorder of Deeds: James Reed sold land for $170 to Tarrance McCune on 1 April 1824, "it being one hundred acres...all that part or parcel...lying and being on west side of Duck Creek of the northeast quarter of Section 29, Township 7, Range 9" of the lands sold at Zanesville by the act of Congress. The deed was signed on 21 April 1824 by James Reed and Rachel Reed. Attest David NcGary and Peter Fogle. E. According to www.glorecords.blm.gov on internet, James Reed had been original purchaser of land in and around Belle Valley, including 80 acres in Twp 7N, Range 9W, Section 29 which is the same section where William McCune and Joseph McCune had their land when the 1876 map of Noble Township, Noble County was printed. F. According to the "Morgan Co, Ohio Common Pleas Minute Book E" Tarrance was naturalized in Morgan County, Ohio under the Act of 1828. It indicates that he was a native of Ireland and had proved that he had resided within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States, before the 18th day of June 1812.
Note: The U.S. Congress declared war on England 19 Jun 1812G. According to the "Morgan Co, Ohio Grantee Index A-Z 1795-1855" (FHL Microfilm 0911104) in Book L, p147, Charles McCune was Grantee, John Reed was Grantor of 20 acres of land at $400, Section 29, Township 7, Range 9. H. According to the "Deed Transfers of Noble County 1800-1899" in Vol 9 p533, David Jennings was Grantee and Charles McCune was Grantor of 10 acres of land, Section 29, Township 7, Range 9. I. According to the "Deed Transfers of Noble County 1800-1899" in Vol 12 p54, Charles McCune was Grantee and Jas. Dudley was Grantor of a lease, Section 29, Township 7, Range 9. J. On June 26, 1861, Wm Barnhouse, George Barnhouse, Wm McCune, Joseph McCune, and Rosannah Barnhouse asked the probate judge to appoint John Geddes to be the administrator of the estate of Tarry McCune (Box 70, Case 701). The heirs were William McCune, Joseph McCune, and Roseanne Barnhouse. K. On June 26, 1861, Sebria McCune declined "taking out letters of administration on the estate of Tarry McCune (my deceased husband)" this was attested by Wm Barnhouse and George Barnhouse and ..... Geddis was crossed out. L. On July 6, 1861, a notice was published in the "Noble County Republican" which said: "Charles McCune's Estate Notice is hereby given that the subscriber has been appointed and qualified as Administrator on the estate of Charles McCune......Noble County, deceased. Dated at Caldwell this 29th day of June, 1861. John Gaddis, administrator. July 6, 1861"
Many thanks to Carolyn McCune, cmccune@primary.net, for this wonderfully extensive research on the McCunes in America. - Daniel B Cooley

(Research):From McCune Family in America "The name McCune is thought to be of Scottish origin. It is the Anglicized version of the Gaelic personal name of Eogann, or Eugene as we know it. Eugene is derived from the Latin name Eugenius and it was borne by a third century bishop and martyr. Variant spellings are McCowan, McCone, McGeown, McGuone, McCown and Keown. The two distinct groups in which Scottish surnames fall are those of Gaelic origin and those of English origin. The Gaelic language came to Scotland from Ireland around the fifth centruy. Surnames of Gaelic orgin came from the northern and western area of Scotland. Because of famine and discrimination, Scotsmen were forced to leave their land and spread out around the world. Consequently, many Scottish surnames exist throughout the English speaking world. The most common Gaelic origin surname is patronymic (descending from the father) and it begins with the prefix of 'Mac', meaning 'son of'. Scottish surnames that are English in origin often take the same form as its counterpart found in England. Many of the Scottish surnames found in the northeast, the central lowlands, and the border county in southern Scotland are derived from habitation names. However, it has been shown that some names that were always thought to be typically Scottish such as Lindsay or Hamilton, were actually taken from places in England, The names were brought to Scotland by the Normans during the Middle Ages." If Charles Tarrance McCune's name is Irish then it is a variant of MacKeown which is from "Eoin", Irish for "John". So, MacEoin is "Son of John". It is one of the top 50 names in East Ulster

Charles married Sabria (wife of Charles Tarrance McCune) [?] about 1815 in Possibly New Jersey. Sabria was born about 1794 in New Jersey; died about 1870 in Noble County, Ohio. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

William married Nancy Clark about 1814 in Guernsey County, Ohio. Nancy (daughter of Benjamin Clark and Nancy Finley) was born on 13 Aug 1799 in Greene County, Pennsylvania; died on 24 Jun 1874 in Vinton County, Ohio; was buried about Jun 1874 in Vinton County, Ohio. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Note: Nancy is a sister to Joseph Clark who married Elizabeth Albin, William's elder sister.

Samuel married Frances "Fanny" Yost on 22 Jun 1818 in Harrison County, Ohio. Frances (daughter of Michael Yost and Rachel Cockley) was born on 5 Mar 1797 in Winchester, Frederick Co, Virginia; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
