    I can tell you all about Jack. For some reason the photo is labeled wrong.The midget is my great uncle and his name is Jack Barnett.He's from Roxboro, NC and was 42 inches tall. He and his brother were with Barnum and Bailey for over 20 years.Herbert was 36 inches tall. I love collecting anything and everything about them.If anyone has photos my email is mag7girl@hotmail.com. I have many photos of them both and know lots more info about them.My name is Luanne
