   My mom and her family were from Darien, Georgia, and I grew up with great   
   stories about him. He had a curio/antique shop on hwy 17 in Darien. In the mid   
   60's, my grandfather and grandmother and aunt moved into that place and   
   renovated. I have a book from    
   his shop that tey found. It was a book of George Barnes, with articles and   
   realestate transactions and pictures of Mr. Barnes. Somewhere in storage, I   
   have a sugar bowl from his shop that was a famous first lady's.   
   Anyway, my mother was so enamored with him she kept this stuff and passed it   
   down. Oh, she had also done research on him and he was in Buffalo Bill's Wild   
   West show when he was 12, I believe. Perhaps that was the traveling show that   
   landed him there. My    
   mom's fam8ly's name was Ryal's and later in the 60's, Kinnett.
