Facts and Events
From Colonial Families of Anne Arundel County, Maryland Ruth Shipley Barnes is said to have married 2nd (N) Miller. For more information on Ruth Shipley's parents, see Nancy Pearre Lesure's article, "Hammutal Tivis and Robert Shipley, A Cautionary Tale." [BMGS 31 (3) 161-164] From Hammutal Tevis and Robert Shipley: A Cautionary Tale by Nany Pearre Lesure One final explanation is needed: those Barnes descendants with the Tevis name. John and Hammutal (surname unknown) Barnes had a son Adam, who 5 August 1784 married a Ruth Shipley. The most plausible explanation is that she was Robert Shipley's sister, the daughter of Adam, deceased, and of Hammutal (Tevis) Shipley, later Lindsay. Adam Barnes and Ruth (Shipley) Barnes had a daughter Hammutal, and it appears that she was named for both of her grandmothers. The children of John Barnes' son Adam are descendants from Robert Tevis after all, but on the maternal rather than the paternal side. References
