Hello Helena!
Can't find words to tell you how happy I am with the information you just forwarded regarding Elizabeth (Lizzie) Barker. I remember my Mom telling of Agnes having eloped with a person of colour while quite young. My family never spoke much about Agnes' adventure. I've been searching for ages using Lizzie as her daughter's name, without success. I may now find a marriage record and the name of ....Barker. My Dad was Agnes' first cousin, son of Bertha Watson. Aunt Bessie, Agnes and Bertha were sisters.
Thank you, Helena!
