Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reports of Cases Argued and Adjudged in the Supreme Court of the United States, January Term, 1842, Vol. 16 Tm: family from which Judge Barbour was descended, was one of the oldest and most respectable in Virginia. His great-grandfather was a mer chant of Scotland, who immigrated to this country. His grandfather was the pioneer and first settler of the country lying between the eastern base of the Blue Ridge, and the South-west mountains. His father, Thomas Barbour, inherited considerable wealth, and was a member of the old House of Burgesses, from the then very large county of Orange. He was one of those who, in 1769, signed the non-importation act between this country and Great Britain. After the formation of the Union, he was elected to the legislature. Richard Henry Lee, in a letter to his brother, Arthur Lee, bore testimony to his worth, to the efiect, that he was glad that Thomas Barbour was in our state councils, for he was a truly intelligent and patri otic man.
