General Notes: Husband - Andrew Barnhart

---

Six families of Barnharts came to Butler County, Pennsylvania, in about 1796. They settled in what is now Fairview Township, originally a part of Donegal. They did not bring their families on the first trip, but erected cabins on their several selections of land, and commenced the task of clearing small spots of ground for cultivation.

He served in the Black Hawk war as a fifer, and having to blow the fife one extremely cold day had his fingers frozen; upon his return home he made an oath that he would never again blow a fife, which he kept faithfully. He died at the age of eighty years.
