1931 50th Wedding Anniversary in Mitchell Nebraska |
Ten years later Matilda was working as a servant in the Filley household in Mud Creek, Nebraska. The rest of the family remained in Johnson county. She married Henry Barker in 1881 and by the turn of the century she had 8 children, Mabel (15), Charles (12), John (10), Agnes (9), Lloyd (7), Kate (5), Alice (4), and an older child I have not identified. By 1910, they had added George. The family, as nearly every family in Nebraska were farmers.
The first ten years of their marriage they lived in Fairmont City, NE and then at least the next 40 years in Mitchell, NE which is just west of Scottsbluff.
Note that the last name of Evans is not the same Evans clan as that of Sarah and Simon Evans.
