Barlow in Pennsylvania ~ Notes and Queries |
Veronica November 2007 My name is Veronica. My mother's maiden name is Barlow. She grew up as Barbara Anne Barlow in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Her mother, Mildred Barlow, had a father named John. He had a brother, William, I believe.
David James Nelson October 2004 My mother is a descendant of Martha Margaret Barlow, daughter of Joseph Barlow and Martha Wright. Martha Margaret Barlow married Henry Arthur Whiteside in May 1835. Their son Henry, born May 1839, was my great grandfather. We have the branch of the family tree of our side, but would like more information, if you have it on Joseph's brothers, sisters, and parents history. The Barlow's came from Pennsylvania, and moved to New Brunswick during or after the Revolutionary War as Loyalists around 1783. Originally from England. Joseph Barlow's father was Ezekial Barlow, who settled in Pennsylvania prior to the Revolution, and also went as a Loyalist to New Brunswick. Joseph's wife -Martha, born 1769- and her parents' (William and Hannah Wright) also were Loyalists in St. John, New Brunswick, but I don't know where they originated from. My great grandparents moved from New Brunswick to Alberta (around Penhold and Stettler area.) Joseph's daughter Martha Margaret was born in 1806, and married my great grandfather Henry Arthur Whiteside (born in Lancaster, England in 1807), married May 28, 1835. The Whiteside/Cody great great grandparents (Henry Arthur's parents') came from England to New Brunswick after the Revolution, and moved back to England between 1805 and 1822, then returned to New Brunswick. Joseph's (born 1761 or 1762) brothers and sisters were William, Elizabeth, Mary, Maria Grace, Catherine, Thomas, Anne, Joseph, and Sophia Jane. These are the branches I am interested in. Phyllis Ander 27 July 2001 Lucius BARLOW b. about 1791 CT>PA c1812 Looking for the connection of Lucius Barlow b. c 1791 to the Connecticut Barlows. 1850 census Tioga Co listed his birthplace as CT. I believe that he migrated to Charleston Twp about age 21 or 1812 or so. His wife Mary Ann was born in NY c1801. They had at least 10 children one of whom was my g grandmother Louisa (Lovisa) Barlow born c1836 in Tioga Co. Charleston Twp. She married Robert Douglas Tipple in 1859. Found him! Lucius BARLOW was the son of Samuel Barlow. b.1748 in Stratford, Fairfield Co d 1835 in Delaware Co NY. This is from his petition for a Rev. War Pension. Information mostly supplied by his daughter Ann Bloomer in 1832. Conflict noted with a bio on this site of Pierre Barlow Cornwall whose mother Theodotia Barlow was one of the 9 surviving children in 1835 along with Lucius, Charles, George S., James Harvey, John, Ann Bloomer, Grace Burr, Phidema Hogadoom. Conflict: Site says that Samuel BARLOW was born in England and moved here in 1770s with several brothers. One of these is incorrect. The link between Theodotia, Anne and Lucius is sure... Does anyone know where their father Samuel came from??? And when?? Chris Hudson November 2000 It is *possible* that Esther may be the Esther who is a daughter of Thomas and Anna Barlow who lived someplace in Lancashire at that time and had about 10 children, one of whom is Esther. I do not have the town, birth, marriage, or death dates. Most of this family immigrated to NY and PA about 1844. The first child was Jehu born in 1807 and possibly the last was Richard in 1839. I have no birth dates or anything else for Esther. Do you have *any* additional information on Esther, her parents, etc.? I'm stuck on her parents; there are just too many Thomas and Anna Barlow's at that time. Maurice Madden August 2000 Seeking kin of Annie Madden, born 1858 in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, to James Madden and Mary O'Donnell. She married William Henry Skeffington Barlow 1889 in Philadelphia, had children: William, James, Agnes and Mary. After William Henry died in 1907, both Annie and Agnes spent time in Florida.

born 1822 and died December 05, 1873, married Rhoda
Ann Slater, born

Carpenter Willard Barlow born 1866 I have found another Joseph Barlow on Lumberland, Sullivan Co NY 1820 and 1830 census. This Joseph would have been born 1790-94. I also have a burial for John H. Barlow whose father was Joseph Barlow married Mary Arstrong. This John and my Joseph, would fit in age groups on census as brothers. Looking for anyone with information on these families. Thanks for your help. I am stuck on a Smith BARLOW born ca 1818 in NY - per later Pennsylvania census records. I hope someone can tell me more about him. Here's what I know:
Smith BARLOW of Meshoppen, Wyoming Co Pennsylvania
was born ca 1818 in New York 1. Sarah b. 1846 2. Warren b. 1848 3. Charles b. 1850. By the 1860 Meshoppen PA census they had added 2 more children: 4. Harriet b. 1851 5. Rhoda b. 1854 In April 1860 Smith and Susan BARLOW sold their Meshoppen land. They are on the 1870 census and in 1872 Smith and Susan BARLOW sold property, this time in Washington, Wyoming Co. PA. This 1872 land sale is the last record I have for Susan. On the 1880 census is found Smith BARLOW, 63, born NY with wife "Emily" age 51, born PA; son Nelson, 12 born PA and CRANDALL, Etta 15, born PA, no relationship listed, doing "housework". Any info on Smith BARLOW and his family would be appreciated. My husband descends from child #4. Harriet BARLOW B. ca 1851 in Meshoppen who married Gershom WINANS. VAL Loretta of Iroquois Co Illinois GenWeb I have very little on the Barlow family, because the family was broken up into orphanges during WWII. However, my husband's name is William Nathan Barlow, Jr., b. in Reading, PA; his father is William Nathan Barlow; his father is Claude or Clyde Barlow. We believe the family was settled in around Binghamton, NY, and it was my husband's father who moved to Reading, PA to work for the railroad. He then moved to Fort Wayne with the railroad but later worked at Dana Corp. My husband is the eldest of about 13 children. We are in touch with only a few of them, including his half brother William Raymond Barlow, who is a Wesleyan minister in Warren, Indiana. Hubby's mother was Stella Kahl. Her father was an immigrant from the Alsace-Lorraine area, and his family in the "Old Country" settled on the "Kahn" name when the area became stable politically. They had gone back and forth between the two depending on which country was in power. Malachi Barlow and Eliza Taylor were married November 28, 1833 and had several children including Henry M. Barlow. Henry and ____ were married 01 January 1857 in Philadelphia and had 6 children including William Louis. William Louis Barlow and Lavenia Hanby were married 17 March 1891 and had 5 children including Raymond Hanby. Raymond Hanby Barlow and Mary Eibright were married 04 April 1917. Any more info would be appreciated. Elaine Jeter 05 April 1999 I am descended from John Barlow of Limerick Twp Montgomery (then Philadelphia County) Pennsylvania, died after 1800; married Hannah Savage December 17, 1760. Most likely father: Joseph Barlow, listed as landowner in Limerick Twp. in 1725; any information appreciated. Edson Barlow - Rochester Hills see also: Descendants of Joseph Barlow Joseph Barlow married Ann Evans Brooke. She was the widow of Matthew Brooke who died on June 18, 1720, at Limerick, Montgomery Co Pennsylvania. She was living on November 12, 1743, when acreage was sold to her son Matthew Brooke. Joseph and Ann Barlow's children were: i. John Barlow married Hannah Savage on December 31, 1760, at Limerick or on December 17, 1760, at New Hanover, Pennsylvania. ii. Mary Barlow married Francis [?] Hoven or Haven. iii. Ann Barlow married a Mr. Uptegrave. iv. Rachel Barlow was born on March 03, 1728. She
died on March 5, 1813. She married Benjamin Lancaster on
October 26, 1749, probably at the Gwynedd Monthly Meeting of Quakers
in Montgomery Co Pennsylvania. He was born on December 31, 1731,
at Wrightstown, Bucks Co Pennsylvania, and was a son of Thomas and
Phebe (Wardell) Lancaster. They moved to Harford Co Maryland,
in 1768 [Early Friends v. Elizabeth Barlow was born in 1729. She died on December 11, 1796. She married John Lancaster on November 15, 1753, in Bucks Co Pennsylvania [IGI] or at the Gwynedd Monthly Meeting of Quakers in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania [IGI]. He was born on "12 mo. 10, 1732/3" (February 10, 1732/3) near Wrightstown, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and was a son of Thomas and Phebe (Wardell) Lancaster. He moved to Richland with his parents in 1740 and spent the rest of his life there. He died on February 26, 1791. vi. Abigail Barlow married a Mr. Utlip or Ortlip. vii. Hannah Barlow married a Mr. Hollam or Holland. I have further information on the Barlow descendents who settled mainly in the Montgomery Pennsylvania area, if you are interested. A few years ago, while visiting Gettysburg Pennsylvania, I came across a community called "Barlow". Does anyone know how it got that name? Thanks .... |
