About Robert Barber, Esq.

Genealogy

THIRD BRANCH.

(185) II. 3. ROBERT BARBER, second son of Robert and Hannah Tidmarsh Barber, was b. in Chester, Pa., 10th mo. 10th, 1722; m., 9th mo. 26th, 1746, SARAH WRIGHT , [28] dr. of Samuel and Elizabeth Wright Taylor, of Tinicum Island, Pa., who was b. 12th mo. 3d, 1729. He was first lieut. of the first company formed in Hempfield township, Lancaster Co., in 1775, of which his brother James was captain, his brother Samuel was second lieut. and his son John was a private. He took the oath of allegiance to the State of Pennsylvania in H. township July 1st, 1777. He received 62 acres of ground from his mother on Oct. 14th, 1761, according to an arrangement made by his father during his lifetime. He built the brick house, which is still standing in Columbia, on the same plot of ground on which his father's house formerly stood. The bricks in the house were probably brought from England. The woodwork was mainly oak, as stated in Miss Barber's Memoir, in Appendix. This was erected previous to the year 1763, as it was here that the Paxton boys stopped on themorning after murdering the Indians.[29] The structure is now occupied as an office by the Susquehanna Iron Co., and by the Superintendent as a dwelling. The main portion of the building is as it was 125 years ago.The projecting roof running around between the two stories has been removed and other changes have been made in recent years, such as the addition of a porch in front and a kitchen at one side in the rear. The old-style doors and window sashes have also been replaced by modern ones. Robert Barber d. Oct. 4th, 1782. She d. Oct. 6th, 1793. pp. 36-37

(191) III. 4. ROBERT, eldest son of Robert and Sarah Taylor Barber, was b. in Columbia, Pa., Aug. 28th, 1751 ; m., Sept, 23d, 1775, SARAH BOUDE, dr. of Dr. Samuel and Mary Bethel Boude, b. in Columbia, May 19th, 1754. He took the oath of allegiance to the State of Pennsylvania in Hempfield township, July 1st, 1777. In company with his brother Thomas, he moved to Northumberland Co. (now Union), Pa., in 1785, in which year he was taxed on four horses, two cows and 580 acres of land. It appears that the subject of this sketch became possessed of property in Northumberland Co. some thirteen years before he left Columbia to settle permanently in Buffalo Valley. It is supposed that the land was purchased for him and his brothers, Thomas and John, by their father. "In the fall (of 1772) Robert Barber, Esquire, built the first house on the White Springs tract of. which we have any knowledge, as he recites in a lease dated 9th August, 1773, to John Scott, that he leases him the house he had built last fall at the head of White Springs for seven years. It was on the Edward Lee warrantee, which Barber had purchased, in August, from Reuben Haines.[30] This old log house is still standing, but it has been moved about one hundred yards from its original position, and the logs have been covered with weather-boards within the recollection of some of the family now living. It was about 20 by 25 feet in dimensions, the large stone chimney occupying nearly the entire width of one end. The structure is now owned by Benjamin Chambers, who bought it after the death of the Misses Eleanor and Elizabeth Barber, who had a life interest in it.

In 1791, Robert Barber built a sawmill on his farm on White Spring Run. In 1797, he built a gristmill on the same stream. In 1805 and '6, in partnership with Solomon Heise, of Columbia, he built the largest flouring mill in the county, on Penn's Creek, and also a sawmill. He served as magistrate many years, having been commissioned Justice of the Peace for Buffalo township, Nov. 29th, 1792. He occupied the same farm 56 years. The land is now owned by his grandchildren, the Barbers and Chambers. Esquire Barber was a man of great force of character, and exercised a strong influence among the first settlers. He d. in Union Co., Kov. 27th, 1841. She d. May 25th, 1818.

  • [30] See Linn's Annals of Buffalo Valley, p. 48. Mr. Linn is in error in alluding to this as the first house. It was the first house possessing glass windows..
