BRIEF HISTORY OF EDITH BARNEY STOKES

Edith Barney was the eighth of nine children born to James Henry Barney and Effie Malinda Nebeker Barney. She was born April 30, 1922, in Annabella, Sevier County, Utah. She had two older brothers, Von and Dewite, five older sisters, Lora, Elma, Hazel, Reva, Vivin, and a younger sister, Martha.

Edith grew up in Annabella and attended elementary school there. She was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints on July 5, 1930, at age eight.

As a child, Edith learned to work and helped in the house and garden. She wrote: “All the family would have a good time in the evenings. Papa would sit in the rocking chair, some sat on his lap, and he played harmonica and we tried to sing. My father was a nice looking man, kind and thoughtful, but strict. We knew when he said to do something that he meant it. When we were small, we would run races with him. He could always run faster backward than we could run forward.”

“My mother was a pretty woman. . . .As I remember, she never had an unkind word to say about anyone. . . .

“I remember one time that we were sick with chicken pox. Papa came home one day from the post office and was carrying on why the Christensen kids took sick after we did and they were all broke out and we weren’t. But all the while he was saying this, he was giving us black licorice to eat. I had a great time growing up and couldn’t have asked for better parents.”

Edith’s father became ill in January, had surgery in Salt Lake City, and died at home of a brain tumor on April 12, 1935. This was about two weeks before Edith’s 13th birthday. The following years were difficult as the Depression was going on and money was scarce.

Edith attended South Sevier High School in Monroe, Utah, and graduated in 1940. She also graduated from South Sevier Seminary the same year. The Richfield Reaper reported that she gave a talk in the South Sevier Stake Seminary program in 1939. It also said that she and four other girls enjoyed a trip to Cove Mountain in the summer of 1939 and that she gave a story in a mothers’ day program in Annabella in 1940.

The Kane County Standard reported in the fall of 1941 that Edith, sister to Mrs. Roland Chamberlain, had returned home after spending several weeks in Orderville.

Some time prior to June, 1942, Edith and her sister Martha left home and went to Benecia, California, where they worked in the Benecia Arsenal packing ammunition in boxes. They met Don Kerns and Martha married him in June, 1942, in Redding, California. Edith and Martha probably kept working at the Arsenal for a time. According to Edith’s sister Vivin, Edith was engaged to marry a young man who was killed in World War II.

Edith met Roy Stokes in California. He was in the Army during World War II. He was released from military service on January 3, 1946. Edith and Roy fell in love and were married in Salt Lake City, Utah, on May 4, 1948. They became the parents of one daughter, Linda Kaye, and four sons, Ronald L, Barney Lee, Henry Ray, and Eddie Dean Stokes. Linda was born in Redding, California, Ronald and Barney were born in Mount Vernon, Indiana, Ray and Eddie were born in American Fork, Utah.

During the Korean War, Roy was called up for active duty. He was serving in Korea at the time of Ron’s birth. He was also at Fort Hood near Killeen, Texas, for a time. A picture was taken of Edith and some of the children there. Roy was a veteran of both wars.

The Stokes family lived in Pleasant Grove, Utah, for several years. In 1966 or 1967, they moved back to Mount Vernon, Indiana. Later, they moved to Evansville, Indiana.

When they lived in Utah, the Stokes family enjoyed trips to Annabella to visit Edith’s mother. Edith wrote, “The last time I saw my mother alive was at Reva’s. I had flown in from Indiana to see her in October [1968] and she passed away in December. How precious she was to me.”

Edith worked as a cook when the family lived in Utah. In Indiana, she worked at Deaconess Hospital where she worked her way up to Head Dietician.

Roy suffered from heart problems for about nine years. His second heart attack left him unable to work. The third one took his life. He died May 24, 1976, in Deaconess Hospital in Evansville, Indiana, at age 52. He was buried in Phillipstown, Illinois.

On May 4, 1978, Edith received her endowment in the Salt Lake Temple and was sealed to Roy.

Edith was a widow for 26 years. In 1991, she was in Evansville, Indiana, when she had “a spell,” fell, got cuts, bruises, had an EKG, and wore a heart monitor for a while. Later, as her health declined, she went to live with Ray and Julie in San Bernardino, California. She got an infection and died September 13, 2002, in San Bernardino, California, at age 80. She was buried in Phillipstown, Illinois.BRIEF HISTORY OF EDITH BARNEY STOKES
