See Newport Mercury, 28 May 1904, p. 8, Hist. and Gen. Notes, some notes on early Barkers. Says James's grandfather lived at Harwich, County Esses, England. |
Birth | about 1622 | James Barker was born about 1622 in Southwold, Sussex, England. Findagrave lists his birth 1617-1622 with baptism in Harwich, Essex. Wikipedia lists it in 1622, with baptism in Southwold, Suffolk.

Immigration | 1636 | He immigrated in 1636 to England Genealogical notes in Newport Mercury says James immigrated with his father, when he was 17, in 1636, in company with Nicholas Easton and others. His father supposedly died during the voyage.
However, Nicholas Easton supposedly came on the Mary & John, 24 March 1633/4. James is not listed on the passenger list, but the list is only 60-70% complete, according to the Mary and John Clearinghouse.1 |
Marriage | about 1644 | He and Barbara Dungan were married about 1644 Barbara and James had eight known children, of which the boys were James Joseph (had boys Joseph and Peter) Peter (had boys Peter and Thomas) William (had boys James, Peter, William and Joshua)
They and the boys also had girls, but I listed the boys because they carried the Barker name on down. |
Death | about 1702 | He died about 1702 in Newport, Newport County, Rhode Island, |
