P. 180, references a census taken of the Nauvoo, Illinois wards which show the following in the 3rd ward:
Israel and Elizabeth Barlow
[Next door:] Edward and Anis Thompson, Truman R. Barlow
Pp. 304-306 quotes from a letter written 12 Sep 1853 by Israel while in Rock Island, IL at the home of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Lucinda Beebe Barlow, the widow of Israel's brother Jonathan Watson Barlos who had moved to that city in the 1840's and had died there 20 Jul 1851. Israel was traveling through on his way to his mission to England. Spelling uncorrected: "...befoure I left Kainesvill for good I found where Truman and Mother wure Settled, I traveled Some thirty milds East on to the Nishnebonana River then up the River Some thirty od milds found My Br Truman and my Mother in the wild wilderness 3 or four milds to the nearest neighbor I inquired in an od Tone of voice if I could Stay there Over the Nite The response was yes The nexte word that I spoke Truman Says with a raised a Tone of voice Israel is it you I could but reply in the affermative truly it is he Soon clasped my hand and flung his armes a round my Neck and exclaimed O my Dear Brother I never expected to See you a gain are you and your family well Mother Says she lyes at the point of Death I am glad that you have Come I stayed that Nite and the next day and the day and nite following tho mother was very Sick She appeared to be better the folloing day and I thought probaly that She mite get along again from hur appearance.

4. On 15 Sep 2011, I visited the Ontario County Archives and Records Center in Canandaigua, New York. There are no deed or probate records of any Lockwood or Barlow of interest to us. I also visited the Canandaigua Historical Society Library and they also had absolutely no references to the same two families. Vital records in the area were not recorded until the late 1800s.
5. From my visit to Nauvoo, Illinois, May 2007, I found the following information from the "Lands and Records Office" concerning Annis Gillette:
A. Annis was a member of the Nauvoo 3rd Ward. Reference: "Nauvoo: Early Mormon... Series 1839-46." Platt, Lyman. 1980.
B. "Women of the Nauvoo Relief Society," by. Marine C. Ward, p. 189: "Annis Thompson, 13 May 1842; Annis Gillette; b. 25 Jul 1784, of Sharon, Norfolk, Massachusetts; parents Thomas Gillett and Mary Jones, m. Edward Thompson, d. 13 Aug 1853, Shelby County, Iowa. (AF, IBS, NAU, NDM, NJ2, NTER, SEB.)
C. "Record of Baptisms for the Dead, Nauvoo," by Black and Black, Nauvoo Baptismal Records of the Dead, Book A143:
a. Vol. 6, p. 3619: Annis was proxy for the deceased Jonathan Barlow, b. 23 Jun 1769 at Granville, Hampden, Massachusetts to father Nathan Barlow and Margaret Purchase. Married Margaret Root, 1800. Married second Annis Gillett, 14 Nov 1804 at Granville. Died 16 Dec 1820 at Granville. Proxy's relationship to deceased: Annis Thompson was the wife of Jonathan Barlow. Date of proxy baptism: 1841 (probably baptism in the Mississippi River). Source: Nauvoo Baptismal Records of the Dead, Book A9, Family Search, Ancestral File.
b. Annis Thompson was proxy for Amy Remmington, her sister, and wife to Stephen Remmington. Stephen and Amy were married 27 Nov 1799 and she died 25 Aug 1827. Annis was also proxy for Stephen Remmington, b. 1775 of Granville, Hampden, Massachusetts. Both of the baptisms were 1841 presumably in the Mississippi River since the Nauvoo Temple font was not yet opened. This was also when various genders could be baptized for the other gender.
6. Nauvoo LDS Land and Records Office research file (copy in my possession as of 2 Jun 2007) provides the following information (also partially viewable at www.earlylds.com): Israel Barlow acted as proxy for the following proxy baptisms in 11 Jun 1843 in Nauvoo per "Nauvoo Baptismal Records for the Dead":
A. Heman Barlow, proxy was the nephew to Heman, officiators: James Allred, Jonathan H. Hale, Aaron Johnson. Book C31.
B. Jonathan Barlow, b. 23 Jun 1769 at Granville, Hampden, Massachusetts, father Nathan Barlow, mother Margaret Purchase, spouse Annis Gillett, m.14 Nov 1804 at Granville. Proxy is son of Jonathan, officiators: James Allred, Jonathan H. Hale, Aaron Johnson. Book C31.
C. Margaret Purchase, b. 1739 at Granville, Hampden, Massachusetts, father Jonathan purchase, mother Margaret Worthington, spouse Nathan Barlow, m. 19 Oct 1765 at Springfield, Hampden, Massachusetts, proxy was grandson of Margaret, officiators: James Allred, Jonathan H. Hale, Aaron Johnson. Book C31.
D. Nathan Barlow, b. 26 Mar 1726 at Granville, Hampden, Massachusetts, father James Barlow, mother Mary Harmon, spouse Margaret Purchase, m. 19 Oct 1765 at Springfield, Hampden, Massachusetts, d. Granville, proxy was grandson to Nathan, officiators: James Allred, Jonathan H. Hale, Aaron Johnson. Book C31.
7. It is mentioned in the book "The Town of Mendon 1813-2000 and Village of Honeoye Falls 1838-2000," by Diane Ham and Anne Bullock, Honeoye Falls-Town of Mendon Historical Society, January 2000, p. 75, that Annis Gillett, George Gillett Lockwood, Julia Ann Lockwood, Israel Barlow, Jonathan Barlow, Truman Barlow, Annis Barlow and Rhoda Barlow all went to Kirtland, Ohio with the Mormons in 1832.
BIRTH:
1. Nauvoo Temple Endowment Register shows: "Annis B. Thompson, b. 26 Jul 1788, washed and anointed and endowed 23 Dec 1845, in company with Charles H. Hales and Julia Ann Hales." Note that the birth date varies from the commonly accepted 25 Jul 1784 date; however, the 1788 date doesn't seem to fit since Annis' sister Elizabeth was born in 1788.
MARRIAGE:
1. Ancestry.com's "Massachusetts's Marriages, 1633-1850": Annis Gillett and Jonathan Barlow, 13 Oct 1804, Granville, Hampden, MA. Source FHL film 0185381.
QUESTIONS:
1. Why is she the only child born in Sharon whereas all other siblings are born in Granville?

1. Family group sheet of Israel Barlow Family Association, 801-298-3687, dated 24 Feb 1999 per Lloyd B. Carr, Genealogist, PO Box 89, Bountiful, Utah, 84011.
