boys
10-15. David and Joseph
Barber were in Mentz in 1820, and are likely to

Jillen DAVIS was sister of Comfort MERRIMAN, second wife
of Samuel4 BARBER, father of Samuel5. Jillen m/2
Benjamin HEATH, and Hannah assumed the name HEATH, apparently.
Samuel and Hannah lived in Harwinton in 1772, and in Watertown in 1790. Anna KNAPP,
who is given as Samuel5's wife in the first edition of "The
Connecticut Barbers", was probably the wife of Samuel Barber, Jr. of New
Marlboro MA, a few miles south of Tyringham, and not related to the Barbers in
this Thomas Barber Genealogy. [~

m Rachel KILBURN.
239 iii CHARLES6, b probably Watertown CT 1775/6; m

Elba, Genesee Co NY 1 Apr 1848; m David KILBURN, b 1779,
died in Elba in 31 Aug 1866, son of Richard
and Mercy (BRONSON) KILBURN. Hannah and David lived
in Elba, where
Rachel, Alexander’s wife, and Charles, and
their families were living. They had a son and a daughter in 1830. These
children probably died young, since they are
not mentioned in the probate record at David’s death. After Hannah
died, David m/2 Lee MA 15 Oct 1849 Electa HULETT. [~ 1820,
1830 censuses:Elba ~]
The
1790 census shows Samuel and Hannah probably had another daughter.

Abigail COE, b Litchfield 12 Jan 1759, d 20 Jan 1847, daughter of Thomas
and Mary (GODELL) KEYES COE. Cemetery inscriptions of
Litchfield show his death as age 70, which would make his birth year 1753/4.
Joseph resided at Litchfield by 1772 with his brothers, and remained
there after his marriage. He was the only on of his large family to remain in
Connecticut. Joseph and Abigail lived in Litchfield until 1837, but late in
life they, too, moved, to Portage Co OH.
Joseph and his brother‑in‑law Levi COE were in Capt.
Waugh's 17th Militia Regiment in the Revolution in 1779, to oppose the British
who were burning Fairfield and Norwalk CT on 10 Jul 1779. Joseph bought several
pieces of land in Litchfield in 1782. [~ 1909

James DALY from Aberdeen,
Scotland. The writeup in Popular Bios
states that she had 6 children by James
DALY, and 5 children by Stephen BARBER.
Stephen is placed here as a son of Stephen
because he is called "Junior", and also because of the proximity to
Elizabethtown NY, across Lake Champlain. His son Hezekiah was presumably named for
Stephen's uncle. The
1820 census of Cornwall VT has: Stephen, Jr.

Hebron until 1801. He had grown up in a
well-to-do family, but things changed after his marriage. In early 1801 Elihu
and Hannah sold their rather poor farm in Hebron and moved by ox-sled to a log
house and 100 acre farm in Pompey, in Onondaga Co NY. Elihu did well there in
the dairy farming business, and became known as "Butter Barber". The
farm gradually grew to over 500 acres. During the War of 1812 he delivered
butter to Manlius, Onondaga Co every morning, a trip of 9 miles, holding 3
pails as he rode his horse to the hotel in Manlius.
Before Elihu became established and got the new frame house built,
Hannah provided the income with her loom, weaving linen and woolens for the
neighbors. They were among the organizers of the First Baptist Church of
Pompey. [~ 1909 Barber Gen; CT State Lib:The Pompey Reunion;

r East Haddam until after 1815, where the cotton and woolen mills that he owned
were destroyed by fire. They then moved to Hebron CT, where they stayed until
1818, when Josiah and Sophia moved to Brooklyn OH (part of greater Cleveland).
Their home was in a beautiful spot, on the west bank of the Cuyahoga River, looking
over the Cuyahoga Valley. In 1840 Josiah is listed in “Ohio City”, Cuyahoga Co.
He became financially interested in several manufacturing enterprises in
Cleveland, including the Cuyahoga Steam Furnace Co. Also he and his
brother-in-law Richard Lord formed “Lord and Barber”, a real estate firm, and
he dealt constantly in land deals.
In 1836 he became the first Mayor of Ohio City, which later merged with
Cleveland. He was also on the Board of Trustees of Kenyon College; a
Representative to the Ohio State Legislature in at least 1821-22; in 1822 a
member of the Governor’s Commission on Schools; a founder of St. John’s
Episcopal Church in Cleveland. In 1820 Trinity Church in Cleveland was but 3
years old, and poor, having no home or rectors. Josiah opened his house to the
Church, and for the next 6 years services were held there intermittently. [~ Barber

says 11 Sep 1806, but 6 and 11 were probably transposed; his estate was
probated 5 Oct 1811). Very likely John5 of Harwinton, b 16 Jul 1746 is the same individual as
this John1 who married Elizabeth CHENEY
and is hereafter described. According
to an LDS Group sheet John's father is Ebenezer of the Springfield MA
area, but I find no Ebenezer of the right dates. Another family tradition is
that John came from Canada. John m
Ashford CT 27 Feb 1772 Elizabeth CHENEY, b Ashford 6 Sep 1752, d 11 Mar
1827, daughter of William and Ruth (EASTMAN) CHENEY. Both are
buried in St George Cemetery. Until the 1790’s John resided in Petersburg,
Rensselaer Co NY, about 25-30 miles south of Granville, Washington Co NY, where
Benjamin and Lemuel (probably his brothers) went from Connecticut.
[There was one Barber family (Thomas5) living in Ashford CT at the time
John was married to Elizabeth CHENEY.
It is possible that John Barber is related to that family, whose
descent is Thomas1 Thomas2, Thomas3, Thomas4, Thomas5 (b 1728) who lived at Ashford.
Thomas4 could possibly have had another
son, John5, born 1745/6, brother of Thomas5, and born after the rest of his recorded
children, and who then could be the one who married Elizabeth CHENEY.]
John served in Capt. Allen’s Company, 1781, in the Revolution. In about
1797 they moved to Williston VT. John's marriage and the children's births are
recorded in Williston, but probably none of them occurred there. [~ Vital

Lemuel was an early settler in Granville, Washington Co NY; they had 4
children in school there in 1797. He was in Crown Point, Essex Co NY in 1800
(census: 20010-31010); his brother Benjamin lived in Granville 1790-1797, and
then went north to Plattsburg, Clinton Co; his brother John is probably the one
who went north to Williston VT, and his brother Isaac is probably the one who
went north to Isle La Mott VT. (Lemuel is unlikely the one in Naples, Ontario
Co in 1810 and 1820.) Lemuel and his family moved to Mason Co, Kentucky at
sometime after 1805.
Lemuel served in the Revolutionary War, and the descendants have a keg
which he carried while in service, in which he kept liquor “for emergencies”.
Lemuel’s estate left a considerable amount of spinning and weaving
equipment. [~

and Martha (MILLS) PHELPS.
Daniel is listed as a Revolutionary Soldier from Sunderland Vermont, in
Capt. Daniel Comstock’s Company in 1778; he apparently served and was paid for
just 2 days, April 22nd and 23rd in 1778. He also served short times in 1780,
1781, and in Colonel Ira Allen’s Regiment, Capt. Eli Brownson’s Company in 1782
and 1783.
In 1776 Ruth (MESSENGER) THAYER, a newborn daughter of
Roderick MESSENGER, was left by her mother’s death, in care of an 11
year old sister, who cared for her as best she could for some 9 weeks, when her
father bargained with Daniel Barber, then a resident of Sunderland, to take the
child, and she was subsequently adopted by Daniel.
Daniel was a resident of Sunderland in 1774 when he bought land there.
He also bought land there from “his father-in-law Isaac Phelps” in 1777. He was
chosen Highway Surveyor of Sunderland in 1781. At the close of the war in 1784
they came to Shelburne.
Their house and land, situated on level ground adjoining Lake Champlain,
