Barney Weiser Marries Anna Harmon

Happy to find this brief mention of my Great-Grand uncle's marriage to Annie Harmon. #OldNewspapersROCK

From The Galveston Daily News, in Galveston, Texas on Sunday, February 1, 1874, page 4:


Barney was 28 years old, and living in Chambers County, Texas. Annie Harmon was 17, and the daughter of Joshua Charles Harmon (1826-1896) and Claraneizo Peveto (1828-1916)--residents of Liberty, Texas.

Annie bore Barney three (known) children before his untimely death in March of 1880 at age 34. Annie then married James Frisbie (1853-1927) in August 1880.

Again, I'm ever so grateful to the web site The Portal To Texas History for its rich database. See for yourself Barney and Annie's marriage license data in print at the bottom of page 4:
