      Note:

      Information on Isham Barnard rec'd from des. Steve Holley of Burke, VA April 1998. Steve gathered 'much o f the information' from Lois Barnard Harris who was in her 80s in 1994 when Steve m et her. Lois Barnard Harris' address in the 1980s was: Rt 2, Box 6A, Meadow s of Dan,VA 24120. Information as follows: "Isham Barnard wa s born on December 23, 1787. The names of his parents are unknown; but he did have two brothe rs---Archibald b.1780 in Fluvanna County Virginia---d.1855 in Patrick Co, VA an d Valentine. As a young lad, Isham became a 'bound boy', an indentured servan t, to a Methodist Circuit preacher who exposed him to the minist ry until Isham was 18 years old. The minister's area of ministr y included Western North Carolina. It was on one of the minister's circuit stops that young Isham Barn ard met Sally Burch. Because of Isham's position in life, Sally's parents too k a dim view of any attention that young Isham would pay to their daughter. Upon completion of his service to the minister, and the receivin g of the horse and bridle from his master(as was the custom), Isham Barnard immedia tely set out for Surry County, North Carolina where he convinced Sally Burc h to accompany him to Patrick Co, Virginia. Without her parents permission an d against their will, Sally Burch married Isham Barnard on February 26, 1805. The Bur ches disowned their daughter and she never saw her family again . Isham and Sally Barnard setled in the Kibler Valley by the wa ters of the Dan River. Isham Barnard always resented the fact that the Burch family di d not approve of him. He once said "by the time I die, I'll hav e more than all the Burches". At the time of his death in 1871 , Isham Barnard owned over 1000 acres in Patrick Co,VA. In the early years of their marriage, Isham and Sally Barnard no t only had to contend with the difficulties of primitive mountai n life, but hostile Indians as well. Soon after the purchase o f a pig, that would provide plenty of meat for a hard winter, th e pig was stolen by Indians. Isham and Sally Barnard had 13 children: Lucy, Tirea, Melinda, M ary, Nancy, James, Mehala, Charles, Sally, Leminia, Lucy Ann, Is ham Jr., and William." --information obtained from Lois Barnard Harris, great granddaug hter of Isham Barnard at Rt 2 Box 6A, Meadows of Dan, Virginia 24120 The following information was sent to me by a distant cousin, J . Neil Arrington, Princeton, N.J>, taken from a Bible in the possession of John R . Barnard, Meadows of Dan, Va., Bible is dated 1722. Isham Barnard, Sr. born Dec. 23 1787 Sallie Burch born June 17, 1785, dau. of William and Mary Burch Married Tues, Feb 26, 1805 12 children: Lucy, born June 20, 1806 Tyra, born Aug. 2, 1807 Malinda, born April 13, 1809 Mary (Polly) born March 13, 1811 Nancy, born Sept 2, 1812 James born June 11, 1814 Mahala, born July 10, 1816 Charles, born April 22, 1818 Sallie, born May 25, 1820 Lemina, born May 4, 1822 Isham, born Mar. 4, 1826 William born Sept. 8, 1828 Mary (Polly) was my grandmother, William, the youngest child, wa s Capt. in the Civil War and never married. A broad shouldered man of fine phy sique, fine character, and noble spirit. Surrounded by mountain s and people who were not refined or educated, he gave them employment, sympathy and advic e. He accumulated a gooodly fortune for those times and enjoye d the love and respect of all who knew him. In the Bible referr ed to avoe is the name of Sara A. Shelor, born Aug. 18, 1834. I am sure this is the name of my father's s ister - Sarah Ann Shelor. " Death Records of Patrick Co, VA - Rootsweb Archives- Patrick Co , VA BARNARD, ISHAM SR.
