General Notes: Husband - James Barnett

---

He graduated from Miami University in 1839, and studied for the ministry; licensed by the first Presbytery of Ohio in 1842, and for nearly two years preached on the then western frontiers. In 1844 he was sent as a missionary, in company with his brother-in-law Dr. Paulding, to Asia Minor. In 1854 he was transferred to Cairo, Egypt, to begin a mission, which proved to be one of the most prosperous in the world. After an absence of seventeen years, he returned to America and married. In the fall of 1865 he returned to his work in Egypt, where he labored for eight years more, when he returned to the United States for the benefit of his shattered health. For several years he did home missionary work in Kansas.
