According to penion file, he was in poor health at the time of his discharge from Civil War service in 1865, probably due to malaria and dysentery. He was in "the west" about 1 year (1868), then again after his marriage. He may have lived in Scotland Co., MO or in Van Buren Co., IA, very close to the state line.
William H. Barnett is likely a son of Joseph by his first wife, as there is a gap of 11 years before the next child, and no intervening children in the 1850 census. 1850 shows age 7, but 1860 shows age 20.
Marriage performed by Rev. J. N. Dick, according to pension file.

Appears in 1870 census: Harrisburg Tp., Van Buren Co., p. 270B, as son "A. C.". His mother's obituary (1883) says she had 4 living children at that time. Unless there was another child who did not appear on any censuses, Atchison must have been one of them. So, we checked the 1880 census and found him in Fremont, Isabella Co., MI. 1900, 1910, and 1920, Jackson Co., MI. (1900, ED 1 p. 6; 1920, ED 36 p.1). Death certificate shows father Joseph Barnett.
The 1910 census, in Blackman Tp., ED 1, p. 14, notes that Atchison C. Barnett has been married 15 years and is in his second marriage to Luella J. His parents' birthplaces are given as Pennsylvania and Maryland -- this last item different from all other readings. Luella had one living child, presumably by her first marriage, but we still do not know the surname of her first husband.
The only obituary notice seems to be the one that appeared in the Springport Signal, August 4, 1927:
"A. C. Barnett, who was injured in an auto accident on the Duck Lake road last Monday, died at his home in the Griffith neighborhood Friday night. Funeral from the house Monday, burial near Charlotte. Mr. Barnett was 75 years old and is survived by his wife and one son, who lives in Chicago."
The marriage records of Jackson Co., MI contain the marriage to Luella J. Cook on 24 may 1896 by E. R. Curry, Pastor of the First Baptist Church, Jackson, MI. The entry gives Atchison's mother's maiden name as Murdock, confirming the death certificate of his sister Martha Jane.
Date from death certificate, consistent with census records 1900 and later. However, earlier records make him a year older. It is possible he forgot his actual age!
Death certificate gives exact dates of birth and death, but names father only. Died of pneumonia following crushed chest due to automobile accident. There does not seem to be a probate file for him in Jackson Co., MI.
According to the death certificate. However, the obituary notice in the Springport Signal, August 4, 1927, indicates burial "near Charlotte" (seat of Eaton County).

In some official records, this family used the spelling Barnette. He was working as a cabinet maker in an automobile body factory in Pontiac, MI at the time of the 1930 census, but his family was not with him. Other records for the rest of the family suggest he must have divorced by 1909. His father's obituary places him in Chicago in 1927.
His marriage record in Jackson Co., MI gives his mother's maiden name as Dismit or Dinnit -- the writing is not clear. The name may be Dimmit—there were several families of this name in Armstrong Co., PA, although the spelling varies considerably.
From census data. However, son Ross G. Barnette reported on one of his World War I draft registration cards that his father had been born in Chicago!

Apparently, there were two William Barr's in the vicinity of Van Buren Co., and it is not always clear which records pertain to each man. One of them, evidently not ours, married Mary Buckalew 28 jan 1844.
DAR marriage transcripts.
Computed from reported age at death, which tends to be exaggerated.
Marriage recorded at the Eglise Allemande in Moudon.
