Wellington
Barlow, a farmer and nurseryman of Liberty Township, was born
in Washington Co Virginia in 1822, and was the sixth child in the family of ten children born to Jacob and Dorcas "Gross" Barlow. Jacob Barlow who was a soldier in the War of 1812, died about 1830. A part of the family subsequently removed to Kentucky, where the mother died about 1850. She was a member of the Baptist Church, and was a daughter of John Gross, an Englishman. Wellington received his education in the common subscription schools, to which he was obliged to walk several miles. January 01, 1845, he married Nancy, daughter of Nathaniel Stamper, a native of North Carolina, but one of the pioneers of Kentucky where Mrs. Barlow was born. Mr. Stamper afterwards, removed to Missouri, where he lived until his death, which occured about 1883. Of the twelve children born to Mr. and Mrs. Barlow, six are now living: Tennis, Joseph, Sarah, wife of John Nelson, R. Lincoln, Catherine and Sherman. In 1848, Mr. Barlow removed to near Burlington Iowa, where he lived until 1866, then coming to Pulaski Co Missouri, on the Gasconade River, where he has since improved and still owns a good farm of 160 acres, on which in 1868, he establised a nursery. In this business he has been very successful. He raises some stock, but pays particular attention to the growth of apple and peach trees. Mr. Barlow is a Democrat in politics, and cast his first successful vote for Polk in 1844. He has been a member of the Baptist Church since about 1840. Mrs. Barlow died in the fall of 1877, having been a member of the Baptist Church for many years. |

I was 2 years old. My husband, Dallas Luttes, and I attended this Centennial with Edna and Harrison Barlow. They were then living on the old Barlow place. While I was there, I got them the records from the Old Barlow Bible. A few years later, the old house with all the records, pictures and Bible, burned. Harrison, born in 1889, and Edna, born in 1900, never married. They live on a farm near Gasconade River and the old home place. Their address: Route #2 Box 105, Richland, Missouri. Harrison is the fifth, and Edna, is the tenth and the youngest of Tennis Barlow's children. The Rollins Cemetery where so many of the family are buried is near their home but not on the highway, Old #66. The Berean Church is on the north side of the highway. It is near Waynesville, but it is in the country. |
