Notes:

birth: 1763 from WFT #2:2108

"The History of Woodstock, Connecticut," by Clarence Winthrop Bowen

Name: Spelled "Shortt" in the Woodstock History; spelled "Short" in the GBFA

"Jacob Barney, 1634" p 125 by Mary E. Wesbrook, 1982.

WCB: Apparently we don't know exactly who the Polly Barney was who md. Shubael Short. She was probably either #328 Polly -- but Mr. Preston wasn't positive that there was a daughter Polly in this family -- or she was #348 Mary Barney, dau. of Benaiah and Anna (Goff) Barney (p.58 of GBFA). So, lacking other evidence, I am linking Shubael Short with #348 Mary Barney.

death date/place: died 29 May 1842 in Calais,Washington Co.,Vt., according to LDS PRF #6, Bruce A. & Katherine J. Hamlin, 512 Quarter St., Rochester, MI 48307, Date 10 Oct 1999 [Re. LDS Ancestral File, I think].

Notes:

birth: WFT #2:2108 has 28 Nov 1762; WFT #3:2188 has 28 Nov 1762

children: WFT #2:2108 lists only two: Nancy and Shubel P.; so does WFT #3:2188

The descendants in WFT #2:2108 and #3:2188 appear to be identical; probably from the same WFT submitter.

GBFA p.58: "untraced; but could she have been the "Polly" who md. Shubael Short in 1782?"

WCB: Apparently we don't know exactly who the Polly Barney was who md. Shubael Short. She was probably either #328 Polly -- but Mr. Preston wasn't positive that there was a daughter Polly in this family -- or she was #348 Mary Barney, dau. of Benaiah and Anna (Goff) Barney (p.58 of GBFA). So, lacking other evidence, I am linking Shubael Short with #348 Mary Barney. But we don't even know that he married "Miss" Polly Barney -- she may have been Mrs. Polly (_____) Barney.

Descendants on "World Family Tree" 2:2108; gives her birth as 28 Nov 1762. Still doesn't solve the problem as to who her parents were.

LDS PRF #6, Bruce A. & Katherine J. Hamlin, 512 Quarter St., Rochester, MI 48307, Date 10 Oct 1999 has her as the daughter of Daniel and Rachel (Bowen) Barney, b. 1764 in Swansea, Bristol Co., Mass.

Children: I had Cyrenus, Nancy, & Shubel; the rest from LDS PRF #6, Bruce & Katherine Hamlin; birth places, Calais Township,Washington Co.,Vt., according to the Hamlins.

Mass. Marriage Records (DAR 1968)
"Jacob Barney, 1634" pp 123, 127 by Mary E. Wesbrook, 1982.

No children were mentioned from either of his 2nd or 3rd
marriage to Bethiah Goff or Hannah Ormsbee.

Aunt Betty's notes have his marriage to Anne Goff as 2 June 1768. She has this date in three places, but it seems to be wrong, since they had children born as early as 1764.

Letter from George S. Barney, about 1910: Included was a BARNEY GENEALOGY: "This record was compiled from one belonging to Benaiah Barney, brother of the first Daniel, by Mrs. Angeline Mason, eldest daughter of Mason Barney."

Burial: from "Barney Family" manuscript sent by Lynda Schonover of St. Petersburg, Fla.

Benaiah married Anna Goff on 2 Jun 1763 in Rehoboth, Bristol County, Massachusetts, USA. Anna was born in 1743 in Rehoboth, Bristol County, Massachusetts, USA; died on 16 Mar 1794; was buried in Rehoboth, Bristol County, Massachusetts, USA, Pierce's Graveyard. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Was she the sister of Bethiah Goff (Benaiah's 2nd wife)?

Barney (Barney No. 162) and second wife of Benaiah Barney.Anna Goff may have also been the daughter of Robert and Susanna (_____) Goff.

She died at the age of 51.
