Noyes m/2 Ledyard CT 11 Aug 1814 Widow Mary (CHESTER) SMITH, b 1780, d 12 Oct 1848, daughter of Starr and Mary (MORGAN) CHESTER, and widow of Elijah SMITH.

From the age of 11 Noyes was a clerk for William ELDRIDGE, a merchant in Groton. At age 21 he bought and took over the store. He expanded into farm supplies, becoming the largest dealer in a wide area. Also he bought and shipped farm produce, to various places including the West Indies. Noyes took part in the War of 1812, in which he was a Captain in the 8th Regiment of Volunteers. On the 10th of August, 1814, his troops were called to defend Stonington from British attack. This happened to be the day on which he and Mary had planned to be married. So the wedding took place on August 11th instead.

Noyes was a lawyer by profession, but had a lot of other interests as well. He was elected to the Connecticut Legislature for 2 terms, and then in 1821 he won election to the U S Congress, where he remained in office for 14 years. This was the longest any Connecticut congressman had served, up to that time. He was in the Federal Republican Party, and so when the Jackson Democrats became popular, Noyes was retired, and returned to Groton and to his mercantile pursuits. On 25 Feb 1825 while he was a Congressman, the U.S Congress passed a bill granting him a bounty on the fishing schooner “Lucy Anne”, which perhaps was captured from the British in the War of 1812.(?)

The family attended the Congregational Church. [~ Barbour Index; Barber‑Morgan Bible; CT Hist Soc:Burdick Gen; Gen & Biog New London; Godfrey Mem Lib:Herringshaw's Library; U.S Congress Private Claims; IGI:OH; NY Gen & Bio Rec.v 51 ~]

153. DAVID⁶ BARBER (James Noyes⁵), b Lebanon CT 22 Nov 1775; m Chloe BARKER, b CT 177?. In 1810 this David is probably the David living in German Flats, Herkimer Co NY, with wife; 1 girl b before 1795; 1 girl and 1 boy b 1795-1800; 2 boys and 2 girls b 1800-1810. In 1850 David lived in Little Falls, Herkimer Co with James N, apparently his son. A Chloe BARBER, b CT 1776/7, is found in Marcellus, Onondaga Co NY, in 1850, living with Guy P BARBER and his family. At that time David’s presumed brothers Aaron and Jonathan lived in Warren, Herkimer Co.

It is not certain that David’s wife Chloe is the same who apparently was in Marcellus in 1850. If she is the wife of David, this means they were separated. [~ DAR lineage; 1850 census:Marcellus ~]

Children of Augustus and Lois: I am not certain that Ansel and Alsen are children of Augustus - one record stated so. They are definitely in the family, and could possibly be sons of one of Augustus’ brothers.

There were at least four more children according to census.

156. ?WILLIAM N⁶ BARBER (Amaziah⁵), b Simsbury CT 18 Dec 1774; d Fishers, Ontario Co NY 25 Jan 1861; probably is the same as the William who m Rebecca MILLS, b MA 6 Aug 1786, d Fishers 15 Mar 1852, daughter of John MILLS of Scotland. They established themselves at Bloomfield, and then Victor, both in Ontario Co.

William is listed as one of the early settlers of East Victor. William’s father Amaziah moved to Penfield, Monroe Co, and all his brothers had households there for a time. Penfield is just 10 miles north of Victor, Ontario Co. In 1850 a Mary SPRAGUE was living with William and Rebecca.

In 1820 and 1830 there was an Asahel BARBER living next to William’s family in Victor. The censuses indicate Asahel, b 1775-80; his wife, same age; 3 daughters b 1800-1805; 2 sons and 1 daughter b 1805-10; 1 son b after 1810; one of the sons was Asahel Jr, b 180?, m a wife of same age and lived next to Asahel Sr in 1830 with no children. In 1840 Asahel was in Perrinton, Monroe Co, near Victor, with 2 sons and a daughter.

Children of William and Rebecca (They are reported to have had 4 daughters and 1 son. 1810 census shows 1 boy

157. ABIJAH⁶ BARBER (Amaziah⁵), b Simsbury CT 10 Nov 1779; d Reading, Hillsdale Co MI 5 Jul 1854; m probably in Delaware Co NY Delilah ‑‑‑, b MA 1 Oct 1788, d Reading 6 Jan 1865; r Penfield, Monroe Co NY, Townsend, Huron Co OH, and Reading MI.

According to the family, Abijah was the only brother who succeeded in paying off his farm in Townsend. This was because his father helped him, probably by using his Revolutionary War Pension. He and his brother Hezekiah were elders in their church, the “Peace Baptist Church”. In Penfield Abijah was at times election clerk, trustee, and treasurer during the 1820’s.

In 1836 his family went to Hillsdale Co in Michigan. It was Abijah who was the first of the Barber brothers to go there. Hezekiah and his family followed, and the other brothers remained in Ohio. Several other families who were associated in the Church with the Barbers migrated there at the same time, from Ohio. Abijah bought 40 acres in the Perrinburg section of Camden, Hillsdale Co, later known as “The Berg”. By 1840 Abijah and his wife were living in Reading with his son Levi. Delilah was living with her son Levi in 1860. [~ Corresp:Gregory Mason; IGI:MI; 1820 census:Townsend; 1830 census:Townsend:shows 6 children; Huron County Marriages ~]

Hezekiah m/2 considerably later, at Hillsdale 4 Sep 1841 Ann HUGGETT, b England 1798.

Hezekiah, a farmer, was the first of the brothers to go to Townsend, in about 1809, and was followed by Abijah, Amaziah, and Augustus. The land in Townsend was difficult to clear and till, which probably explains why they moved on to Michigan by about 1839, following brother Abijah’s family.

I believe that this record perhaps was in error, and that this was actually Mrs. Rhoda (CASE) WELLS, widow of Elkaniah ("Como") WELLS, and that HAISE was written instead of CASE. (It should have been WELLS, anyway). [~ Barbour Index; CT church rec; Corresp:Debbi Geer ~]

The Bushnell Genealogy calls the father of this family Seth Barber. I believe that the Seth referred to is Samuel's father or brother Seth, and is wrongly substituted for Samuel.

Chloe's first husband was John CASE, and she had 3 children by him: John, Desire, and Chloe. Daniel and Chloe lived in Simsbury until about 1781. He was a soldier in the Revolution, and served two terms in the Continental Army.

Daniel Barber was ordained as an Episcopal Clergyman in 1787, and began his preaching in Manchester VT about 1787, where he remained thru 1794. At the end of this time he was Secretary of Vermont’s Episcopal Convention. Then Daniel preached in Claremont NH for 24 years. As an Episcopal minister in Claremont, Daniel knew Dr. PENNIMAN there, who had married the widow of Ethan ALLEN of Vermont “Green Mountain Boys” fame. In 1807 Rev. BARBER baptised into his Episcopal faith Fanny ALLEN, Ethan's daughter, who was headed for school in Montreal to learn French. This was in order to keep her from becoming a Catholic when exposed to the Nuns there. However, this didn't work, apparently, because later, in 1808, she did enter a convent. She had discussions about this with Rev. BARBER, who opposed her plans. But he became interested in Catholicism in this way, and after over 30 years in the Episcopal Church, Daniel converted to the Catholic faith in 1818, the same year his wife died, and four years after his son Virgil had converted to Catholicism. Bishop Cheverus, a priest in Boston, also had much to do with this conversion - visited Daniel and left books for him and his family to read. This conversion of the Barber family, with its strict Puritan background, was one of the most notable and far-reaching in its results of any recorded in the annals of the Church in New England.

At that time he gave his estate to the Catholic Church. Daniel then led, he said, "a kind of pilgrimage state of life, wandering from place to place, depending entirely upon the hospitality and charity of the pious, the generous, and the humane". He lived in Boston MA, Baltimore MD, Georgetown DC, Frederick County MD, and ended up in Washington DC. He wrote "History of My Own Times", which includes an account of early Simsbury.

[~ Hist. of Herkimer Co ~]

Virgil was first trained as an Episcopal Clergyman. He was first at missions in Claremont NH, and Indian Old Town,

Maine, and officiated as priest in Episcopal Churches in Cheshire CT and Waterbury CT. In 1814 both he and his

wife converted to Catholicism. He passed his noviceship at Georgetown University in Washington DC. He became a Roman Catholic Priest, in the Society of Jesus, and was ordained in 1822. In 1814 he was made

Principal in a Herkimer County NY Trinity Episcopal Church at Fairfield, near Utica, but after about 2 years it was

ascertained that he had changed his religious preference and so he was dismissed by the Trustees. Later Virgil was

in Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington DC. He visited Rome to make arrangements to provide for his wife and

children. He was a man of profound learning and culture, being able to speak 7 languages.

Jerusha became a nun, called sister Mary Augustine, and entered the Visitation Convent in 1818 with her 4

daughters. She was head of education there. She started a new Convent at Kaskaskia, Randolph Co IL in 1836,

mainly to train teachers. Still later she started a Convent in St Louis MO, 1844‑1848, and after that one in Mobile AL, where she spent the rest of her life.

Each of their children also became involved with the Church as a way of life, and never married. [~ 1909 Barber

Jared served in the Revolution. At one point during this service he held the ink stand into which General Washington dipped his pen in signing the order for the execution of Major Andre. The family moved from Connecticut to Sheldon just after 1800. They cleared a farm there. A nearby mound is now known as Barber Hill. I believe that Eunice went to Elba in Genesee Co with her sons, and lived with Hiram Barber (probably her son) in 1830, who was unmarried.

170. ISRAEL⁶ BARBER (Daniel⁵), b Simsbury CT 12 May 1765; d 1834; m 1801 ‑‑‑; r Simsbury until 1786, then at sea in 1786-1787, in Augusta GA 1787-1788, in Screven Co GA 1789-1800, in Tatnall Co GA 1801-1805, and in Camden (now Charlton) Co GA, on a plantation near the St Mary's River, after 1805. He received 600 acres of land in Screven Co in 1799, and in 1816-1818 he received 650 acres in Camden Co.

Israel must have been a restless soul. A letter from him to his brother Daniel, dated 1 Jan 1810, details his life story. Apparently his Uncle Thomas Barber in Simsbury caused Israel to leave there because of Uncle’s “rascality”. Israel went to sea at the age of 21, in the Sloop “Commerce”, which had a route between New Haven CT, Jamaica, and Savannah GA. This proved to be more of an adventure than expected, for they suffered a gale for nine days, which blew them off course to “Bermooda”, where they nearly perished on the rocks.

Shortly thereafter the sloop was captured by a British Sloop of War. Israel was held prisoner for a while and then freed in Savannah. There he shipped aboard a Scotch brig. The Captain was “unsufferable” in conduct, feeding the crew very little and beating them without cause. A few months later when the brig reached Savannah the Scotch Captain “departed this life suddenly, to our great joy”. The crew helped to bury him and then went to the grog shop and “spent the remainder of the day drinking his health.”

Israel spent a year in Augusta, and then 10 years, probably in Screven Co Georgia. In about 1800 he traveled to the Altamaha River, probably Tatnall Co, where he “bought a stock of cattle and some Negroes, and set up a small store of groceries.” In 1801 he met and married the daughter of a planter who lived along the St Mary's River in Camden Co, (in what is now Charlton Co) Georgia. At that time the whole area below the Altamaha was called Guale, and served as a neutral zone between the English above the Altamaha, and the Spanish in Florida. Israel settled in 1806 as (he claimed) “the first white settler on the north edge of the Okefenokee Swamp”. He stated he was 5 miles from the Spanish line, East Florida. Also he was 43 miles from St Marys, and 8 miles from the “Indian line”.

Israel raised a family, and became a man of wealth, owning in 1810 1000 head of cattle, 300 hogs, 3 good horses, 9 slaves, and a good plantation. There he raised corn, cattle and rice. In 1809, after being cut off from his family for many years, one of his letters was answered by his brother Daniel. He was so overjoyed to hear about all his family, that he “killed the fattings of my flocks and made a great feast”, which lasted 2 days. After a 30 years absence, he visited his New England boyhood scenes, but then returned to Georgia.

In 1817 Indians drove off 200 head of his cattle. This was part of troubles which eventually led to the first Seminole War.

In the years about 1825-30 there was an ongoing dispute between Florida and Georgia as to the boundary, in the region of the St Mary’s River and the Okefenokee Swamp, where Georgia dips down into Florida. In 1831 a committee was named to establish the official boundary. Israel and his son Obediah were hired as guides in this project. Israel was later a “short-time resident” of Baker and of Nassau Counties in Florida.

Children of Israel, born in Tatnall and Camden Counties, 1802-181?:

i GRANDISON⁷, ; m 1828 Sarah HAWTHORNE. In the days of the border dispute between Florida and Georgia,

Grandison “wore out his cart and his wife” moving back and forth between Ware Co GA and Columbia Co (now Baker

Co) FL. Every time the political climate changed and Georgia claimed this part of Florida, Grandison would move

down into it, but later when the political tide turned against Georgia, Grandison would move back up, because he

would be “damned to hell rather than live in Florida”. When the State Line was finally established, Grandison built a

house on this Line, one half of the house in each state.

At this time he was doing some business on the sly, namely cattle-rustling, and when things got too hot for him and

the Sheriff came out, he would move to the other side of his house, into the next state, to avoid arrest. This worked

for a while, until the fateful day when both Sheriffs showed up at the same time!

“King of the Okefenokee”. His log cabin has been preserved, and can be seen at the Okefenokee

Homestead, about 8 miles southwest of Waycross, Ware Co GA. This other Obediah was supposedly

married 3 times, and had 20 children.

Calvin m/2 Hartford CT (West Hartford Church) (Calvin “of Simsbury”) 28 Feb 1843, Harriet HURLBURT of West Hartford, b 1783/4, d West Hartford 21 Sep 1849; r Simsbury, on a farm. In her will, Harriet left property to 8 children of Lemuel HURLBURT, and "to 2 daughters of herself and Mr. COLLINS".

Calvin's widowed mother was reduced to poverty, partly because the Continental money depreciated badly. This made it necessary for Calvin to be "bound out" to his brother‑in‑law Jacob PETTIBONE to learn the trade of mason and stone‑cutter. He educated himself while in training and became a successful teacher. He had to borrow money for his wedding clothes, he was so poor. His wife's family wasn't much better off, but she and Calvin had much enthusiasm and spirit to carry them through to better times.

In 1802 Calvin contracted with the State of Connecticut to rebuild the old "Newgate" prison at the Simsbury Copper mines. When he finished, the walls were of solid masonry 10 or 12 feet high. A big celebration was held and even the prisoners were allowed to participate. For many years he was an active magistrate, and was known to be a terror to evil‑doers.

Lucius graduated from Amherst College, Amherst MA in 1826, earned an M.A. degree in 1829, and received his

M.D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania Medical Department in 1833. He located first in the

then small city of Milwaukee, but after a few years, he settled at Jefferson. Although he practiced medicine for a few

years, from 1835 to 1839, he preferred politics. He became speaker of the house in the first assembly of the

Wisconsin legislature in 1839. Also he became Clerk of the U S District Court of Jefferson County from 1840 to

1845.

In 1846, after the family tragedies of the year before, Lucius returned to Simsbury to a life of farming. He was one

of the best‑known men of Simsbury, known for his many anecdotes and genial disposition. He was elected to the

Connecticut General Assembly in 1850, and became a Probate Judge in Simsbury, a position which he held from

1858 to 1868.

Lucius spent many years researching the history of Simsbury, but did not finish writing it up by the time of his

death.

He left valuable manuscripts. He wrote "A Record and Documentary History of Simsbury". Abigail was active

socially, and in church work, and in the Daughters of the American Revolution, the Abigail Phelps Chapter.

Elisha was an early settler in Fairfield, and then also was one of the early settlers at Louisville or Chase Mills, both in St Lawrence Co NY, just after 1800.

Elisha derives his middle name WESTOVER from his father’s maternal grandmother, Mary WESTOVER, daughter of Jonah WESTOVER of Simsbury.

Elisha was the first schoolteacher in Chase Mills in 1808/9, and was elected an assessor in 1808. He is found in the 1810 census of Messina, St Lawrence Co. In 1820 he was in Louisville, near to Chase Mills, and 1830 finds him in the Norfolk, St Lawrence Co census, also near Chase Mills. In 1838 Elisha W and Abigail removed from membership in the First Presbyterian Congregational Church of Norfolk. Elisha was one of the original members at the founding of the Church in 1828.

Margaret E Barber has family information from her great-grandfather Ira Everett Barber indicating that his grandfather Hallet is the son of Elisha Westover Barber.
