Biography

Francis Barnard was born in 1617, son of Bartholomew Barnard. Francis married Hannah Merrill August 15, 1644 and Francis Foot Dickinson August 21, 1677.[1]

He was the immigrant ancestor of this Barnard line in America, arriving in Dorchester in 1636 on the "Freelove". He arrived in Hartford in 1644, and was a first settler of both Hadley and Deerfield.

(Francis may have been married three times. First to Mary Watson - no children.)

Maltster at Hartford, 1644; was one of the first settlers of Hadley, 1659; also of Deerfield, 1673; retired to Hadley in Philip's war, were he d. Feb. 3, 1698, a. 81. [Sheldon's History of Deerfield, vol. II, pg. 65].

[Deane Merrill, July 2006] The first wife of Francis Barnard, the mother of Joseph Barnard 1641-1695, is believed to be Hannah Merrill b.abt.1628 in MA, who m.Francis Barnard in 1644 and d.in Deerfield 1675. Hannah's father is unknown. Some sources list Francis' first wife as Hannah Marvin, d.of Matthew Marvin, b.in England in 1634. But she was too young to have married Francis Barnard in 1644. Some sources list Hannah Merrill as the daughter of Matthew Marvin. This seems unlikely, although an adoption cannot be ruled out.

Fran­cis Barnard1 (ca. 1616–1698)

Fran­cis emi­grated from Eng­land, arrived in Mass­a­chu­setts (as did sev­eral other unre­lated Barnards), and was among the early set­tlers of Hart­ford, Con­necti­cut (cer­tainly by 1644, per his mar­riage there), and Hadley and Deer­field, Mass­a­chu­setts (1659 and 1673, respec­tively). Prior to the Amer­i­can Rev­o­lu­tion­ary War (1775–1783), his descen­dants resided prin­ci­pally in Mass­a­chu­setts and Con­necti­cut. There­after, some removed to Ver­mont, and many migrated west­ward, set­tling mainly in New York, Penn­syl­va­nia, Ohio, Indi­ana, Illi­nois, Michi­gan, and Wis­con­sin (or the ter­ri­to­ries that sub­se­quently formed these states). Many Loy­al­ists (“Tories”) removed to Nova Sco­tia and Lower Canada (Ontario) dur­ing and imme­di­ately fol­low­ing the Rev­o­lu­tion­ary War. Today descen­dants of Fran­cis live through­out the United States and Canada.
