  Notes	From Barber Genealogy Author: Lillian May Wilson Call Number: R929.2 B234w This book contains the descendants of Thomas and John Barber. Bibliographic Information: Wilson, Lillian May. Barber Genealogy. Nichols Print. Haverhill, Mass. 1909. Page 19 SECOND GENERATION. 2. JOHN BARBER,2 (Thomas1) bp. July 24, 1642. He m. 1st in Springfield, Conn., Sept. 2, 1663, Bathsheba Coggin, (sometimes given Coggen or Cousens) who d. in 1688; he m. 2nd May 1, 1689, Hannah, widow of Thomas Brancroft, and probably dau. of Samuel Gardner, of Hadley. The records seem to indicate that as a very young man, he spent some time in Springfield, and was married there, but settled first in Windsor. In 1664 his father's place in Windsor was made over to him, but in 1671, he transferred it to his brother Samuel, and removed to Springfield. Burt's History of Springfield states that he had two children born prior to his removal to that place. His other children were born in Springfield. The same authority states that he served for eight years as one of the selectmen of Springfield, and he is referred to, in the early records, as Deacon John Barber. In 1684 he removed from Springfield to Suffield. Here, according to some records, he was a deacon and also a selectman. But the records, both of Springfield and Suffield, are much confused regarding this John Barber and his family. This has presented one of the difficult problems of the present work, and after a careful consideration of all the information obtainable on the subject, the conclusion seems inevitable that among the early settlers, both of Springfield and Suffield, there were other Barber familes, descended probably from one of the Massachusetts emigrants, but certainly not descended from Thomas, of Windsor. For instance, a John Barber, Sr., and a John Barber, Jr., took the oath of allegiance in Springfield, Jan. 1, 1678. These persons could not have been John (son of Thomas, of Windsor) and his son John, as the latter would have been but nine years old on that date. Again, the records of Springfield contain a list of claimants to lands granted to deceased soldiers of King Philip's War. In this list there appears the name of "John Barber, son of John, of Springfield." This list bears date of June 1736, and as the mortuary Page 20 records seem to give positive evidence that John,2 John,2 Thomas, of Windsor,1 died in 1690, this appears to confirm the theory that there were other families in Springfield descended from one of the other Barber emigrants. The frequent occurrence of the names Thomas and John in these families renders the problem still more difficult, and the records here given of John Barber (son of Thomas, of Windsor) and of his family, are all that research to this date, has been able to establish with any degree of certainty. It is to be hoped that some future historian may be more successful. Deacon John Barber died Jan. 17, 1712. His will was proven in February of the same year, and it is stated that the surname very soon thereafter disappears from the records of Suffield. As will be seen by the records of the sons of this family (third generation) it is not improbable that the surname became extinct in this particular line with that generation.
