Historical References
"BARNET, BARNETT. Popular forms of the personal name Barnard or Bernard. Bardsley says that in England the Cistercian monk, St. Bernard of Clairvaux, gave a great impetus in the thirteenth century to this name, and that "a large number of Bernards sprang up in Fumess after the Abbey came under the Bernardino rule." It may also possibly be from the town of Unmet in Hertfordshire. Both forms are current in Scotland, and are also found in the Edinburgh Marriage Records. 0 "(The surnames of Scotland. George Fraser Black, 1866-1948)
DNA
Sometimes you can run into a brick wall in your tree and you just don't have enough evidence to make that next step back in time. A DNA test can sometimes help to make a link to a particular family name if you find you share common DNA with people who have the same or similar surnames as each other. If you are lucky then you may get a match within a few generations and discover some Barnett ancestors. Additionally, the modern DNA test can give you a breakdown of your ethnic mix - you may be surprised at the results!
