doesn't ancestry give a free census

Hi there, Let me check out your current info and I will try to get some additional information for you. The "gatorboy" "gloryman" in Texas. ps my pleasure is to serve and give back for so many have helped us along the way.... God bless you and yours

Go to this site and see if it helps! Good luck! http://www.myheritage.com/FP/genealogyCenter.php?sn=&fsn=&page=1&action=search&query=Highbargin&spelling=exact&firstName=&gender=F&minBirthYearLimit=&maxBirthYearLimit=&minDeathYearLimit=&maxDeathYearLimit=

according to 2 census entries I find, there were at least 2siblings to Roy. In 1900, a brother, George, lived with his sister Lilla, and her husband Logan Proctor, in Allen county. In 1920, Roy and his father (age 90!) lived with the same sister and her husband, this time, in Arkansas. Lilla (in 1900) says she was mother to one child, one living which was son Willie (born about 1890). Roy;s mother in 1900, was (I think) Arvilla, who said that she had 6 children/ 6 living. So far, these are the only ones I was able to find. Seems like the men in this family married late.

Go to www.familysearch.org and enter the surname Highbargin. There appears to be a Daisy Highbargin who possibly could be Roy's sister. But that is a free site and might get you some additional information.

There is a site call GenWeb...Look for info about the County of the State they were born in or lived in...Its worth a try...there is also a site called Cindi's list...its lists lots of free info. Also, your local library may have Ancestry for free use...

According to MacLysaght, this is the Irish form of the name of the Scottish clan McDougall, borne by a branch which went to Ireland from the Hebrides as mercenaries. However, Black shows that both forms were current in Scotland. http://genforum.genealogy.com/highbargin/messages/6.html Posted by: Scott Highbargin on March 05, 2007 : "I am still researching The Highbargin & any related lines. would like to trade information with anyone researching linking Family lines."
