I'm compiling this same family for a friend, but the most help that I have found has been in the Upper Cumberland Gen. publications ("UCGA"), especially Vol XIV, #1 (Spring 1989); page 38: "The John Dyer Family". Copies of it should be available from Ft Wayne through The PERSI Index. The Burton's, Herrin's and Maynard's intermarried quite a bit with the Dyer family- in Jackson and Dekalb Cos TN.
AFN: 3X5Z-XC
Clellie Ballard said that her mother, Lena Dyer Maggart, said that "Ezekiel Maynard was the best man earth, just an angel. He'd help people, do things for people, take them in and feed them."

My mother, Mary Etta Barr, b. 29 Oct 1898 Putnam County, Tn was also a granddaughter of Jacob C. Barr, the man who reared Nancy Ellen Barr's offspring, Samuel Neeley Barr (nee Maynard). She told me many, many
times about Ezekiel Maynard and Nancy Ellen Barr. I do not know why they divorced, but Ezekiels own son, Samuel Neeley and wife, Parzetta Elizabeth Myatt, gave me the information about the divorce in Smithville, Tn in 1884. So, the information I gave to you came directly from those people themselves. Samuel Neeley Barr (nee Maynard) is a second cousin of mine and I knew him very well, and still visit with his family. I bought my first
refrigerator from him at his Hardware Store in Baxter, Tn in 1950. (I celebrated my 50th wedding anniversary last saturday, March 4th). We scrapped the refrigerator about 20 yrs ago, otherwise it was still running. You wont find this on familysearch, though.
My records are in Family Search. Ezekiel and Nancy Ellen Barr are listed. I did not have all three wives for Ezekiel when my husband sent my files to the Mormom Church.

Hi Clarence,
Thank you for your message on GenForum. It's another piece of the puzzle on the Maynard family. Ezekiel did indeed marry three times. I was glad to receive the full data on Nannie Barr (Nancy)and her
lineage. Does anyone know the story of why Ezekiel and Nancy divorced?
On the children from the first marriage....Ruth Angeline Maynard (md Robert Mansfield Garrison) was my
grandmother and I remember her well...a sweet, wonderful, hard-working woman. She died when I was a
10 yr. old child but I still remember the day in Redding, California as if it were yesterday. It was a sad day for the family.
Sophronia M Maynard md John Fox
Bell or Nancy Maynard b. 1870 d. 1884
William Lawson Maynard m. 1)Ova Myatt (or Mite)b.21
Nov 1881 md. 13 Feb 1896 d 19 Mar 1897. I believe she and her baby died in childbirth (note added later...baby lived.. She was only about 16 yrs old. He married again to Betty Ann Allison b 15 Aug 1884, Baxter,Tenn d. 10 Dec 1966. How are you related to the Maynards? Be interested to know in case you are looking for more information. Thanks again for your response. Eleanor L. Johnson
