While the stone reads "Barnes," Nancy's maiden name was Barron. This is supported through her marriage record to Thomas Douglas, her lising in her daughter's (Eliza B (Douglas) Hunter) Bible, and Thomas Douglas's military pension. There is no evidence, other than the grave marker, that Nancy was ever a Barnes.
