BAGWELL ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Documentation: Records of Little River Presbyterian Church: Infants baptized in the church of Little River: 1839-Matthew Henry Barlow, son of Joseph Barlow Matthew chartered a freight car and took his family, possessions, furniture, teams, farming implements and settled in Warrens Bend, Texas. He had bought a home in Gainesville and planned on putting the children in school there at the time of his death. (From the website of Susan Barlow Holmes) "A little history of Warrens Bend My great grandfather Matthew Henry Barlow came to Gainesville Texas sometime after the Civil War looking for a place to start a farm and a cotton gin. When he stood on the hill overlooking the Red River, he thought the area reminded him of his home in Shiloh, Tennessee, so he bought 500 acres of the land that included the site of the Barlow Cemetery. My grandfather, J.L. Barlow, at one point owned the land and when he sold it, donated the Barlow Cemetery land to Cooke Co who maintains the cemetery today." 1870 Hardin Co., TN census Savannah, Dist. 15 page 499 BARLOW Henry, 31, farmer, 700-500 NC Mary, 29, keeps house, AL John, 3, TN Celina?, 2 TN Samuel Thomas, 25 farm laborer, AL James McCuless?, 16, farm laborer, TN 1880 Hardin Co., TN census Dist. 15, page 160 BARLOW M.H., 39, farmer, NC Mary, 42, keeps house, AL John, 13, TN
