John is probably a brother of Hallett and George, since he was in Bennington OH, Darke Co OH and then in Adams Co IN, next to Wells Co where Hallett was. Also he named a son Hallett, a very unusual first name. [~ Corresp:Carolyn Masur; Corresp:Michael Potter ~]

As explained in the book, there has been evidence passed down from Hallet’s grandson Ira Everett BARBER to his great-granddaughter Margaret

E BARBER (a correspondent of mine) stating that Hallett’s father was Elisha Westover BARBER.

A different type of evidence raises the possibility that the 3 brothers are descended from the Rhode Island Barbers, descendants of Moses Barber,

b 1652. A 12 location Y-DNA test indicates this relationship. However, 12 location tests are poor evidence.

When he was young, Hallett’s family went to Vermont for a while, and then back to New York State. At age 18 Hallett walked to the area of Franklin and Delaware Counties, Ohio.

The water-powered sawmill and gristmill that Hallett and his son Emerson built in Rockford, Wells Co IN was ill-fated. An engine was put in later, which exploded in 1877, killing 2 men, and destroying the mill. It was never rebuilt.

As explained in the book, there has been evidence passed down from Hallet’s grandson Ira Everett BARBER to his great-granddaughter Margaret

E BARBER (a correspondent of mine) stating that Hallett’s father was Elisha Westover BARBER.
