Another Pioneer Dead:
David Barnes a pioneer of Jackson County, died at his home in Horton April 6, 1895, aged 68 years, 11 months, and 3 days.
Deceased was born May 3, 1826, at Mentz, Cayuga County, New York. He came to Michigan with his parents when 17 years of age and settled in Summitt Township. He moved to Tompkins, in same county, in [1841?] and from there to Jackson a few years later where he held a position as guard and keeper at the state prison for 7 years.
He moved to Hanover Township in 1874, where he lived until he moved to Horton in 1891. With the exception of one year in Moscow he has resided in Jackson County since coming to Michigan.
Was married to Arvilla Fields in 1848. Two children were born to them: Murvin who died at 4 years of age, and Donzetta, wife of C. W. Harris of Moscow, Hillsdale County. This union was broken by the death of wife in 1856. He was married to Mary Hood, of Moscow, in 1860, who survives him together with the six children of their union; Martin, Fred, Jennie, Thomas, William, and David, all of this vicinity.
Words are but weak things to employ in portraying the character of the deceased. The writer of this sketch was intimately acquainted with him for nine years, and we knew him to be a manly man, a kind husband, an indulgent father, and as a neighbor generous to a fault. His influence was for good and he was respected by all.
The funeral was held at the Horton Church April 9th, Rev. W. L. Gibbs officiating, and his remains were placed in Jackson Cemetery. [Interred at Mt. Evergreen Cemetery, Jackson, MI.]
CARD OF THANKS
We desire to express our most heartfelt thanks to our neighbors and friends for their kindness during the sickness of and their assistance in paying the last tribute of respect to our husband and father.
Mrs. Mary Barnes and family
The Thomas and Sarah Barns family did not begin spelling their name "Barnes" until after arriving in Michigan. The large, granite marker near which Thomas, Sarah, David, Mary, Arvilla, Aaron S., and other Barneses are buried at Mt. Evergreen Cemetery in Jackson honors this history by carrying the name BARNS. The Barns family remaining behind in Throopsville, Cayuga County, New York changed the spelling to Barnes around the same time according to the Storke family genealogy.
Known as: Barns. David and Mary primarily used Barns during their lifetimes, but their sons tended toward Barnes. In order to avoid duplicates of these memorials, the family has requested they be listed as Barnes.
