In a search for a g-g-g-grandmother, I
have received information that Susan BARLOW married Joseph
Viedte FRY (b 14 Aug 1776 in Fayette Co KY). It
said that she was born 9 Mar 1775 and died 3 Sep 1836.
But there is no authentic record of this data.
Joseph V. FRY was the
son of William A. FRY and Rachel SPEERS;
grandson of Benjamin FRYE of Germantown, PA,
and a great-grandson of Heinrich FRYE and
Anna Catherine LEVERING who were married in Germantown PA in 1682.
The children of Joseph and Susan FRY were:
Matilda FRY (BARROWS)
Eliza FRY (1-FOREMAN, 2-HARRIS)
Margaret FRY (HEDDINGTON)
William FRY (m. Ann RANDALL)
Lucretia FRY (WOOD)
Milton Fry (m. Letitia DEVORE)
and Joseph V. FRY, Jr. (m-1 Elizabeth RANSDALL,
m-2 Elizabeth ALLEN)
They were all born in Fayette Co KY.
The only person in the preceding
biographical data who is not documented is Susan BAR-
LOW. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has information about
Susan.

I am descended from Thomas BARLOW
whose daughter Polly BARLOW married Ben- jamin GOSNELL
around 1790 in Bedford County VA.
I don't have anything on Thomas and not much
on Polly. I would like to hear from anyone with information on
these BARLOWS.
Jacqueline Schryer, 106 Santa Barbara
Drive, Hampton VA 23666
I am seeking any information about
Abner BARLOW, born 1799 in New Hampshire.
His parents may have been Abner and Eunice
BARLOW. The family moved to New York in early 1800's.
In about 1822 Abner married Polly STRUNK
in Chautauqua County, New York. In about 1834
both families moved to the newly formed state of Wisconsin.
If anyone has information
about this line of Barlows I would like to hear from them.
Katherine Bridgman, 4231 Jensen Street,
Pleasanton CA 94566
Editor's Note: Abner
was a son of Abner and Eunice (French) BARLOW. I have
sent what information I have on Abner BARLOW to Mrs Bridgman and both she
and Barlow of Barlow would appreciate receiving any further information.

Barlow of Barlow is
interested in hearing from anyone who has information on the
BURLOW- BURLEW-BERLOW-BERLEW family.
This line seems to
have been initially located in New Jersey
in the 18th century.
It is assumed that this name is linked
to the BARLOW surname, although it is possible that it is a variation of
the BURLEY name.
I am researching my
GGG Grandfather Chaffin BARLOW. According
to the 1850 Casey County Kentucky census he
was from Virginia and was born around 1822.
He married Mathilda Jane (or Coretta) JACOBS from
North Carolina (born around 1827) in the early 1840's, as their
first child George W. (or George E.) BARLOW was born
in Virginia in July, 1843. Their marriage could
have taken place in Virginia, North Carolina,
or possibly Tennessee. Chaffin BARLOW also was
a member of the 8th Kentucky Cavalry, Company M,
during the Civil War. He probably died in 1866- 1867
as his wife remarried in 1868.
Any information will be appreciated.

Barlow Family Bible
Mel S. Sutton, 470 Platt
Road, Watertown CT 06795, has sent xerox copies
of the genealogical information from the Family Bible
of Jerusha Barlow of Brookfield, Conn- ecticut, that
is in his possession and we will try to reprint them here on this
and the next page. As he said in his letter,
the copies are "not as plain as I would like
but most of the information is discernible.
The book is really in very poor condition as might be expected
for one of its age." |
