anybody know more about this Baptist Minister or the churches he served, or where he is buried? JAMES BARROW He first saw the light in Washington County, Georgia, on the 25th of December, 1802. His father, Moses Barrow, died when he was only three days old and his mother afterwards married Charles Thompson. At ten he lost his mother, whose last words made a satuary impression on his heart. She gave him this excellent advise: "Follow the people of God, and at the end of that race you will find your mother." Mr. Barrow was married in 1825 to Lucy Bivens, of Baldwin County, and settled in Upson County, where he united with the church at Antoch, on the third Sabbath in April 1827, being baptized by Rev. Jacob King. He moved to Talbot County in 1833, residing there nine years, laboring as a mechanic, and preaching as he had opportunity... ... For four years after the death of his wife, who was fatally burned in 1873, he was absent from the house of worship four Sabbaths only. This venerable servant of God is now seventy nine years old. He have five children- two sons and three daughters- and about fifty grandchildren. He has long been grievously afflicted in his arms and limbs, and is totally unable to walk without crutches. His afflictions and his life of faithful service to the cause of Christ have endeared his to his brethren appealing strongly and tenderly to their sympathies.
