In September of 1870 they came to Sioux Falls and located west of the town, there being only one house at that time located in the vlcinity of Galesburg and the barracks.

The country then was a vast prairie and Mrs. Barnes was kind to the gophers feeding them from their doorstep, at that time not realizing that they would later be a post to the farmer. They then returned to Sioux City and In May, J872, brought their family to Sioux Falls and went to live on ths site they picked, which land is still in the family circle. The Barnes' made the trip back and forth to Sioux City in a covered wagon and hauled their lumber from the Iowa town with oxen, there being no railroad bere. Shortly after settling In South Dakota came the grasshoppers when they cleaned the crops of the early settlers.

In a vain endeavor to save some of the crops, Mrs. Barnes Interestingly told to friends this week of how the family would whip the hoppers from the corn and oats, but they would return, eating the crops, adding to the hardships of the homesteader. On the other side of life the South Dakota pioneer told of the good times had in those days, when everyone's home was thrown open to the neighbors and strangers alike. Those who lived in ths state at the time are profuse in their stories of the hospitality of the Barnes family. In October, 1886, the family moved Into Sioux Falls and the following May Mr.

Barnes died. Eight children were born to Mr. and' Mrs. Barnes, two of whom have died. Others are Mrs.
