[Harrison County]   [Richland Precinct]

ALFRED BARLOW, farmer, P. O. Oddville, was born in Harrison County, Ky.,
Oct. 30, 1815, and is the son of Eliphalet and Mildred (Barlow) Barlow.
His father was born in Virginia June 1, 1777, and raised in Wilkes
County, N. C.  In the year 1880 he became a resident of Scott County, Ky.,
and in the year 1801 was married to the lady named.  Nine children were
born to them, four of whom are now living: Lewis, Thompkins, Elizabeth
and Alfred.  Mr. Barlow followed farming and carpentering in Scott County
for 2 years and then removed to Nicholas County, and there engaged in
farming until 1807, when he removed to Harrison County, where he resided
until his death, which occurred in 1868, on March 20.  His mother was a
native of Virginia; she became a resident of Nicholas County by the
removal of her parents to Kentucky, and died in Harrison county in 1863.
The early life of Alfred was spent on his father's farm.  Jan. 22, 1839,
he married America Barnes.  But two of the five children of this union
are now living, viz: Tompkins and Lauretta.  In 1849 his wife died.  In
1850 he married a sister to his first wife, Miss Nancy A. Barnes.  Six
children were the fruits this marriage, four of whom are now living,
viz: Stephen E., Henry B., America F., and Maria E.  Mr. Barlow has been
a farmer by occupation and now owns a farm of 170 acres.  Himself and
family are members of the Methodist church, and he is a member of Lodge
No. 199, of the Grange organization.  In politics he is a Democrat, and
has held the office of Justice of the Peace for eleven consecutive years.
The church of which he and family are members is known as the Barlow
Church, and the school in his district also bears his name.  He is an
active, public spirited man and much of the improvement in his
neighborhood is due to his enterprise and liberality.
