    Notes:

    William was born out of wedlock... He was raised by his grandparents, Samuel and Margaret Barnett and seems Samuel may of been very abusive towards William. I was told by William's son-in-law Stan Milligan that William ran away from home at an early age and never really talked about his family.

    People in the area state that William's father was a John Cooper who lived in Cologne, WV. I did fine a John Cooper living next door to the Barnett's in the 1880 census. One family member told me that this is the same John Cooper, but this John Cooper is only 8 years old in 1880.
