Message: From the Biographical History of Clark and Jackson Counties, Wisconsin
Joseph L. Barber, of section 10, range 2, Weston Township, Clark County, was born in Essex County, New Jersey, October 10, 1827, the son of John S. and Abigail (Kinneman) Barber, both natives of New Jersey; the former was a shoemaker by trade. They were the parents of eleven children, six of whom still survive. Our subject's grandfather, John S. Barber, was a Hessian, and came to this country to fight against the Americans in the Revolutionary War, but deserted by jumping off a man-of-war, swam to the shore and joined Washington's army, in which he was an officer until the close of the war. His wife cooked many meals for Washington, as the great General made his headquarters at their house while he was in winter quarters near Morristown, New Jersey. She drew a large pension, and died about thirty-five years ago, at the age of ninety-seven years.
The subject of this sketch learned the ship-carpenter's trade, at the age of twenty-two years. He went to Chemung County, New York, where his brothes and sisters still reside. One brother (Abbott) is a wealthy man and a Knight of the Red Cross Mason. Mr. Barber came to Calumet County, Wisconsin, in 1851, where he bought land, but afterward returned to the East, and worked at his trade until 1854. In that year he came again to this State and settled on a farm, which was covered with heavy timber. He was a soldier in the late war, in Company D, Sixteenth Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry, serving one year, and participated in the battles of Savannah, Fort McAllister and others. His hearing was affected in the army, as was also his heart and lungs, and on account of the two latter, draws a small pension. Mr. Barber came to this county in 1884, settling on his present farm of eighty acres, forty of which is cleared.
He was married in New Jersey, in July, 1847, to Frances Elizabeth Demouth, a native of New Jersey and daughter of John and Maria (Levi) Demouth. Mr. and Mrs. Barber have had eleven children, seven of whom still survive, namely: Hannah, Samantha, Theodore, Joseph, Frank, Lillie and Albert. Hannah married George Smith of Boyd, Chippewa County, Wisconsin, and they have two children-George and Mary. Hannah has a high school education, and has taught seven years. Samanth married Sanford Chase of Jefferson County, New York and they have four children: Joseph S., Edward A., Frances C. and John L. Theodore is principal of the Alma Center School of Jackson County; was married to Flora Mc Carty and has one child-Joseph.

--------- Barber, Theodore H. (17 MAR 1859 – 20 MAR 1932)
The funeral services of the late Theodore H. Barber, 73, who passed away Sunday morning, March 20, 1932, following a stroke which he suffered Friday evening, were conducted from the M.E. Church in Withee, Tuesday afternoon, Rev. James Irish of Thorp officiating. Interment was made in Riverside Cemetery, with Masonic rites.
The very large attendance at the funeral services were fitting tribute to the life and character of Mr. Barber. Friends came from long distances to unite with those of his home community in the last testimonial of their esteem for him. The floral tributes were many and beautiful. The funeral cortege to the cemetery was one of the longest that has made the sad journey there in many years.
Mr. Barber was born March 17, 1859, at Chilton, Wis. His boyhood was spent there and on reaching manhood he came to Central Wisconsin where he engaged in teaching. He was married at Cadott, to Miss Flora McCarthy, who preceded him in death sixteen years ago. To this union were born two children, Joseph F. who died thirteen years ago, and Mrs. Herman Bartholomay of Withee.
Thirty-five years ago he came to Withee (Clark Co., Wis.) from Boyd, where he has since resided, teaching in the rural and village schools. He was principal of the schools of Withee, Boyd and Humbird, and his last position was held at Longwood, eighteen years ago, after which he retired from the teaching profession. Since retiring from teaching he was engaged in the insurance business.
He had always been a public spirited citizen, and during his long life in his community he was active in its civic affairs. He was careful and conscientious in his business and his service and counsel were frequently sought and never refused. It is the good fortune of only few men to come into such high regard as he was held in as a friend and neighbor. Loyal in principal, courteous and kindly, he felt an interest in those about him which drew them to him.
His passing brings sorrow to his many friends, as well as relatives. Among those from away who came to attend the funeral were his brother, Dr. and Mrs. Jos. Barber of Marathon City, his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Ursula Barber and three children of Tigerton; Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Larson, and Otto Abel, Wausau, George Bue, and Mr. and Mrs. Walter Beilfuss, Neillsville; O.A.

4Rev. C.M. Hyde & Alexander Hyde,, Lee Massachusetts, Centennial History of theTown, 1878. " "The Revolutionary War brought peculiar distress to the population of Cape Cod. Not only did they suffer the burdens of the war, such as fell upon the whole state, the drain of men and money, but their principal occupations, fishing and coasting, were almost entirely broken up. With the loss of all ordinary means of livelihood, and constantly depreciating currency, they were compelled to seek some other location where willingness to work and persevering diligence would be in themselves resources more valuable than money.... Marvelous stories, transcending any fish stories, had been carried to Cape Cod in regard to the fertility of the soil of the new lands on the Housatonic....But the reality was ahard and trying experience of obstacles and difficulties which only undaunted perseverance, strong arms and stout hearts could overcome. The snows were deep and lay long on the hill-sides. It was no easy matter to travel any distance, even with the aid of snow shoes....The name of Cape Street was given to the eastern section of the town, because so largely occupied by people from Cape Cod....The people lived in small log houses, mostly located upon the sides of the mountains. Marked trees served for roads, and a tree felled so as to fall across the river served for a bridge, where such a contrivance was necessary or convenient..."."
