Do not have much history on him as a child. His parents are linked to him.

On Nov 20, 1895 he married his first wife (not able to locate burial) Edna Tallulah Pitts (Grayson County Marriage Book M, page 513A.) in Grayson County, Texas. They had 3 children, they are;
Beulah Belle Barker 1896-1978, husband J.P. Armstrong.
Cecil Thomas Barker 1898-1988, wife Era Bell Hopkins.
Clarence William Barker 1900-1962, wife Edna Birdie Brown.

Edna T. Pitts Barker died between 1900-1905, date of death unknown.

On Dec 26, 1905 He married a woman by the name of Ivy Bogan (Marriage book #2 Page 45)in Grayson County, Texas. She died in childbirth in 1906. Child (Ruyh Pearl) was raised by his sister-in-laws sister; Sarah Maud McGahey Livingston.

In 1907 he was in Indian Territory (Oklahoma-not a state yet)where on Sept 4, 1907 he married Katie E. Freeman Folsom. She was a widow with 5 children. He and Katie had one living child. He is;
Clifton Barker (1908-1980) wife Ruby Smith.

In 1910 Census they were in Township 12, Bryan County, Oklahoma. 1920 has them in Caddo, Bryan, Oklahoma. We are guessing that sometime after Katie's death, he went up to Texas to be with family, until his death.
