   Elizabeth Barber, the daughter of George and Margaret Watkins Barber,
   was born about 1779 in Wilkes County, Georgia.
   
   Elizabeth Barber married Joseph Gill Stiles, 13 March 1799, in
   Oglethorpe County, Georgia. Joseph Gill Stiles was born in
   Chesterfield County, Virginia ca. 1779, the son of John Stiles,
   Revolutionary soldier from Virginia and his wife Agnes Franklin.
   
   John and Elizabeth Stiles had four daughters[1]42 born to them before
   Elizabeth died in 1805, at the age of 25. She is buried at the side of
   her husband in Jones County, Georgia. (her tombstone says she was 25
   when she died. My book and an earlier book published by the DAR
   incorrectly stated that she was 35 when she died)
