Hi Cindy, Leslie and Judith,

There is a biographical listing in History of Hocking Valley Ohio 1883 for a
John Barnhill.  I thought you all might be interested in it.  Cindy, I know 
it doesn't match your information exactly - I'm typing it as it is in the 
book.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
JOHN BARNHILL, born in Jefferson County, Ohio, June 26, 1828, is a son of
Robert Barnhill, a native of Ireland, who came to America when quite young. 
When he was seven years old his parents removed to Coshocton County, where 
he lived till twenty-one years of age.  He then came to Athens County and 
lived a short time, and then went to Wayne County, Ill., returning after 
three years to Carthage.  He was married Feb. 17, 1859, to Margaret Swiss, 
of Carthage Township.  They have eight children - Elizabeth C., John W., 
Burgett, Louisa J., Rosilla, Sarah E., Samuel and Catharine F.  Mr. 
Barnhill received but a limited education in his youth, but by careful 
observation and study he has acquired a good practical education.  He is 
giving his children the best advantages that the county affords, that they 
may be fitted to fill any station in life.
