  • Notes 
    • Aunt Barb is remembered for touching her father's boots when he returned from war as a way of honoring him. Aunt Barb had one daughter, Esther, by her first husband, John Davis. She divorced John which was unheard of at that time. In 1925, she (along with her sisters Maude and Grace) donated $5.00 for the upkeep of Ebenezer Church and cemetery where her husband, John Tobin, was buried just 3 years later. She is living alone at age 65 and next door to her sister-in-law, Grace Evans Clark's family in the 1930 census in Rio Grande, Ohio. (CL-1, Doc)
