John Barnett 28 M Farmer Georgia [born abt 1822]
Minerva Barnett 26 F South Carolina [born abt 1824]
Caroline Barnett 12 F Alabama [born abt 1838]
Frances Barnett 4 F Mississippi [born abt 1846]
We have a problem here with the age reported for Frances, as for other children in the family. Only a 7-year gain in the 1860 census.

Francis D Barnett
Marriage 9 Dec 1869 Alcorn County
Some Boren genealogies mention the idea that Francis was fullblooded Choctaw. Some make reference to the mother of Minerva Boren, Francis Barnett, as of Choctaw background. Francis' father was a European, so she is not full blood of any Native American nation. Francis (Frances) is the granddaughter of Minerva Taylor Owens Barnett and John B Barnett. Minerva Taylor Owens John B Barnett was of Cherokee background, not Choctaw.
Perhaps the Boren family line has some Choctaw background, but we have no indication that the Barnetts did. The Owens line mentions only Cherokee in the records and referenced I have seen. Barnett family researchers/descendants have worked together on the records and family traditions reconstructing the story of Minerva Owens Barnett. Frances Barnett could not have been a full-blood Choctaw. Her Native American heritage would be Cherokee, but she could not be full blood, since her father was of European extraction.
Minerva's husband John B Barnett filed affidavits asserting his children's Cherokee heritage, but they were denied by the Dawes Commission. This denial in itself tells us nothing definitive. But they were unable to present sufficient evidence for the Dawes requirements for enrollment. Minerva Taylor Owens Barnett died about 1903 in Ft Gibson, Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory.

Birth
Some Boren genealogies report that Lucinda was fullblooded Choctaw. But this is imossible, since her father was a European. And her mother's Native lineage was Chrokee, not Choctaw, but Minerva Owens was part European also.Death
In the 1900 census, William T Boren is a widower.Sources
