William F. Barlow voted in Ouachita County ~
~1847 ~ 1849 ~ 1850 ~ 1852 ~
It
only shows owning land in Ouachita County 1852
In
1859 he had land in Columbia County Arkansas

~~ William Barlow ~~
~~ Nancy ~~
~ Julia age 9 and James age 8 ~
Land records in Magnolia, Columbia County Arkansas
~~William bought land from James A. Hicks in 1866~~
In most cases I found James A. Hicks in the same places
I found William Francis Barlow
They
only had the two children. In the 1900 Polk County Arkansas census,
I found Nancy living with her son ... says 3 children...
This tells me that
sometime between the 10 years census', another child
was born and
died before the next census year.
William
sold land in Columbia County in 1872
The
next place I found him was
1880
Polk County Arkansas census
Polk
County land records show him to still own land as late as 1890
William
and Nancy moved to Polk County Arkansas and lived in and around Old Dallas,
Polk County
1880
Polk County Census
~William and Nancy Barlow~
~ no children at home ~
Nancy and her daughter, Julia sold land to James
A. Barlow
~son of Nancy ~ brother of Julia~
~~May 31, 1893 Bk X / Pg 130~~
Record filed at the Court House in Mena, Polk County
Arkansas
This tells me that William F. Barlow died approximately
1892-93
I
find that James has his mother and sister in law living with him in the 1880
Polk Co census, which also
gives me a maiden name for his wife, Marthey ... she
would be an Owens.
Biographical and Historical
Memoirs of Western Arkansas gives a brief history of this Owens
family.

..... note from Susan - webmistress of the Clearinghouse
.....
It
will be up to you, the researcher, to find documentation that will prove or
disprove these children of Nancy and William F. Barlow.
Also, in noting the proximities and names used in these
families, it makes me wonder if perhaps this Barlow family might have a relationship
with that of
Alfred
and Martha Orilla Barlow
or
possibly even
the
Ransom Barlow
family
or the
the Robert T.
Barlow family
