I think Laura may be the daughter
of PC and Lucy
* the family before Asa, looks
like Wallers, as does he, but the next family is clearly
Walters, I don't know if this is an error, or if the
name is trully Wallers. Donna shows that it is
Walters, and that Laura is indeed a daughter
of PC and Lucy, though she, like myself, does not know
who Isadora Barlow might be.

Robinson
Library, Crawford Co Illinois, on Doctors of Crawford
County:
P. C. Barlow,
M.D. On September 24, 1902, the following
obituary appeared in the Argus; "James P.
Barlow, a lawyer, who died near Hotchkiss,
Colorado, September 11, 1902, aged seventy-two,
well known citizen forty years ago
in Crawford County. The son of Dr.
P. C. and Lucy Barlow who came from
Vermont in the thirties, settling first in Palestine
and afterward on a farm south of Robinson
where the deceased grew to mahood"
A record of accounts maintained
by Dr. E.L. Patton of Palestine, indicates
that Dr. P.C. Barlow was in partnership
with him soon after 1834.
From "The History of Crawford and Clark
Counties, 1883":
In 1843 when a site for the
county seat of Crawford county, wasbeing considered Dr.
P. C. Barlow offered land five miles
southwest of the present location of Robinson
and property was also offered by William
Wilson, Finley Paull and Robert C. Wilson. An
election was held and the property selected
for Robinson was that offered by the
second group of men rather than the land of Dr.
Barlow. |
