Note on Wife: Ruth Wallace DONALD

From Ralph Miller "Ruth, the Donalds' second daughter, married William S. Barnes, a sandy haired man from another family that had emigrated to the islands many years before. I think Bill's mother was a "Black" and the Black sisters and the Donalds apparently eventually hated each other. My grandmother spoke very little about her past, but that was definitely a flash point. Bill and Ruth had three girls - Brenda, Carol and Tambrey. In the mid-1950's, the Barnes' moved from the islands to Napa Valley in California. Bill had bought a half interest in a prune "ranch". This consisted of about 74 acres of prune trees and a prune processing plant for cutting, pitting and drying the plums into prunes. I visited them there one summer with my mother and uncle Wally and grandmother. They lived in a lovely farm house on the property which was next

to the Christian Brothers' winery. Today I imagine the land is worth millions and grows grapes - much more profitable than prunes. Later, the Barnes's sold the prune ranch and moved to Puerto Rico where Bill resumed his career as a sugar agronomist. While there Brenda followed her boyfriend from California to France (where he was in the US Army) and married. They had three children - Tracy still single and living in Chicago, John, died of AIDS about 4 years ago; and the youngest, whose name I cannot remember. She married an heir to

the founders of Time-Life. She is estranged from her mother. Brenda divorced her husband and now lives next door to her sister Carol, who never married, in Mt Kisco NY."
