Son of James Arthur Barbour & Harriet Ann Brumbach Barbour

Wife #1
Marriage: Mary Ida Lenain 1882-1955 on Dec. 20, 1896 in Texas
Children:
Joseph Enos Barbour 1899-1952
James Robert Barbour 1901-1962
Lilly Lucille Barbour 1908-1949

James Woodruff Barbour (1900-71) was birthed by wife no. 2, Lyla Woodruff.

He subsequently fathered three children with Susan Bourne (apparently previously married to a Wilson: Sarah, born in 1921, Betty Josephine Hebert (1924-2015) and Leo Billie, born and died on 6/20/26 due to premature birth.

Now, to the reason for changing his middle name to Richardson. Most records (in fact all but one that have been found) list only a middle initial "R" for him. However, his 5/27/02 marriage license in Louisville, Jefferson County Kentucky identifies his middle name as Richardson. This make sense, because his maternal grandmother was Minerva (Richardson) Hobbs. I have found no record of middle name Robert.
