JOHN BARTON was born in Prince William County, Va., October 1, 1803, and
was the second of seven children born To Valentine and Ellinor (Moore)
Barton, both of whom were natives of Virginia.  They immigrated to
Kentucky in about 1812, and settled in Boone County, about two miles
below Petersburg on the Ohio River, but purchased land in Indiana, where
Aurora is now situated.  In a few years Mr. Barton sold his Indiana land,
and moved to where John Barton now resides, where he purchased 150 acres
of land, but at the time of his death he owned about 300 acres.  John
Barton was brought-up on the farm, and received a common-school
education.  He has followed farming from boyhood and has lived where he
now resides since about 1815.  In 1868 he built his present residence.
November 3, 1859, he married Mrs. Amanda Bail, the widow of Benjamin P.
Bail, of Missouri, and a daughter of Frank F. and Lucinda (Anderson)
Robinson, natives of Virginia and Boone County, Ky., respectively.  Mrs.
Barton had one child by her first husband, Lucie E., who died September 11,
1881, and was the wife of Walter Lampton, of Pike County, Miss.  To them
three sons were born: Leslie B., Hollis D. and Claudie L.  Mr. Barton is a
member of the Methodist Church and is a Democrat.
