Old Reuben

Any snap course in Chambers County genealogy almost always has to begin with a gentleman named Reuben Barrow, Sr., who probably never came to Texas. A brace of family genealogists have studied the Barrow family for decades, but no one has ever determined when Old Reuben was born nor when he died. The fact that he lived, however, has never been in question. A man by that name appears on the 1787 census of Mobile, Alabama, aged some 28 years, which would place his birth in the vicinity of 1759. The late Villamae Williams, a longtime researcher and a former chairman of the Chambers County Historical Commission, placed the elder Barrow in Louisiana by 1795.

Reuben was married first, possibly about 1783, to Fannie Kennedy, by whom he had two sons, Levi and Vincent.

His second marriage, to Mary Jane Johnson, took place around 1790. The 1810 census of Opelousas shows two Barrow households, one headed by Reuben and the other by his son Vincent. His other son, Levi, can be found on the census of Rapides Parish that same year. By that time, however, Reuben's household was fairly swarming with young children from his second marriage. These included their daughters Rachel, Elizabeth, Sarah, Julia and Amelia. Over the years each of these girls would marry and most of these families made their way into what would become Chambers County. Elizabeth married Samuel Barber. They would settle on Old River. Sarah married Elisha Henry Roberts Wallis (known in legal documents usually as "E. H. R. Wallis). They would settle at Wallisville. Julia married Alexander Stephens and lived briefly on Turtle Bayou. Amelia would marry Henry Griffith and settle also on Old River. Their eldest daughter, Rachel, married John Foreman, but no one has ever figured out where they settled or what became of them. Four of Reuben and Mary Jane's children (William, Marie, Victoria and Richard Barrow) died young. The legends that developed around the Barrow family most often surround the three sons of Reuben and Mary Jane. Solomon, who was born in 1801, was the oldest of the three. Reuben, Jr. followed in 1806, and Benjamin was born in 1808. Old Reuben settled just below Vermillionville, Louisiana on the lyrically named Bayou Que de Tortue, which meant the Tail of the Turtle. He had some extensive holdings along the bayou, where he farmed and raised cattle. Before we cover the lives of the three Barrow brothers, we should also address one of the major problems confronting any casual student of that family's history. Most of the Barrow families tended to name their children for other members of the family. Since most of them settled in Chambers and Liberty counties, this creates a confusing minefield for the uninitiated. Old Reuben's two sons by his first wife were also involved in the mix. His son Levi died in Louisiana in 1818 and never settled in Texas, but his son Aaron Leonard Barrow and his wife came and stayed for awhile. Levi's brother, Vincent Barrow came here after the death of his first (missing text)

such manner did the first part of the Barrow clan find their way here. wife, Gertrude Thibodeaux and received a land grant near Hankamer. His sons were Levi Oliver, who married Tabitha Isabel Weed; Reuben "Dutch Reuben," who first married Elizabeth Weaver and second to Susan Benton Albritton Courtney (who had been widowed twice); Benjamin Anatoile "French Ben," who married Eliza Weed; Louisa, who married Lucien Abshier; Adaline, who married John Dunman; and Zilphia, who married Robert Dunman.

The pivotal event in the Barrow exodus from Louisiana to Texas is a lengthy journey conducted in the late fall or winter of 1824, when Elisha Henry Robert Wallis and his wife Sarah Barrow loaded their four children and all of their possessions into wagons and set out for the Trinity River. It was not a particularly perilous journey, but it was arduous. There were lots of streams, bayous and rivers to cross. Mr. Wallis came with his three young brothers-in-law. This was a practical way for a family to travel. All of the men helped in fording the streams and driving their combined livestock. They arrived in Liberty on Christmas Day in 1824 and then headed south into present-day Chambers County. Old legends say that skirted the woods to the east, camped along Turtle Bayou, and kept huge fires burning at night to keep away the alligators. In such manner did the first part of the Barrow clan find their way here.

Notes:

from the Handbook of Texas

Benjamin Barrow, "Ben the Bearhunter," an early settler, rancher, and official of Chambers County, the son of Reuben and Mary Jane (Johnson) Barrow, Sr., was born on April 24, 1808, near Opelousas, Louisiana. Although he may have traveled to Texas with family members as early as 1824, he did not permanently settle there until 1827.

In 1838 he received a headright near the site of present Devers in Liberty County, but he does not appear to have lived on the grant. He was married on June 4, 1835, to Permelia Jane White, daughter of cattleman James Taylor White. Family legend has it that Benjamin was caught in a rainstorm around 1830, stayed at White's home for the night, and resolved to wait until Permelia, then about ten, was old enough to marry. They had nine children.

After Permelia died in 1861, Barrow married Mrs. Mary Jane Middleton Bryan. They had no children. Barrow received a pension for service in the Texas army from May 10 to August 10, 1836. He is also listed as a second lieutenant in a Liberty militia company organized during the Republic of Texas period. He established a cattle ranch on Turtle Bayou five miles northeast of Anahuac and became one of the county's largest ranchers and wealthiest men. He was a substantial slaveholder and raised cattle, blooded horses, swine, and sheep on his ranch. His upside-down-wineglass brand was a familiar sight on the prairies of Southeast Texas.

A number of legends revolve around Barrow's bear-hunting exploits. On one occasion when his dogs surrounded a bear in a briar patch, he is said to have climbed into the briars and killed the bear with a knife in order to save his hounds. Family members recall that he also kept pet bears around his house.

Barrow was elected justice of the peace in 1843 and county commissioner in 1854. In April 1868, during Reconstruction, he was appointed district clerk, a position he held for a year.

He died during a smallpox epidemic on February 7, 1877. Mrs. Barrow died of the same disease three days later.

if Fannie is mother of the three children, then why don't they have mother born in Virginia instead of Texas?

He was 48; Margaret was 39. Could somehow this be the same boy as Landon Guy b Aug 1890 who said his parents were born in Texas?

if Fannie is mother of the three children, then why don't they have mother born in Virginia instead of Texas?
But if she is not the mother of the children, then why isn't she listed after the last child rather than in the "wife" position as right after the head of household?
