personally superintending the fields, and read- ing all the gas meters. The production is heavy at present, and Mr. Barnhart's efficient and profitable management of his affairs has won him high standing among the progressive and enterprising operators of the day. In this connection he employs five men regularly. The Barnhart Coal Mine pumping station is supplied with gas from his property, as well as the town of Kaylor and the surrounding county. Mr. Barnhart also has other busi- ness interests, being president of the Butler County Auto Company. He handles a full line of gas fittings and supplies, stoves, ranges, etc., and plumbing supplies (in which he does a thriving business), and is now installing a gasoline plant to make gasoline for all com- mercial purposes. . He keeps seven fine horses to do the large amount of hauling required in the various operations of production and trade, and some of these are standard bred.
Burton L. Barnhart was born April 16, 1867, in an old log house on the farm at Kay- lor, and was reared there, obtaining his edu- Mr. Barnhart is a thirty-second-degree Mason, belonging to Chicora Blue Lodge, No. 540, Butler Chapter, No. 273, Tancred Com- mandery, No. 48, of Pittsburgh, and the Con- sistory and Shrine at Pittsburgh. With his wife he belongs to Butler Chapter, No. 45, O. E. S., and to Damascus (No. 1) White Shrine of Jerusalem, at Pittsburgh. He is also a member of Lodge No. 203, B. P. O. Elks, of Kittanning. He attends the Baptist Church. Mr. Barnhart has been a lifelong Re- publican, and he is now serving his party as committeeman for No. 2 district, Kaylor. He has always endeavored to exert his influence for the improvement of local conditions, and his usefulness is appreciated by his fellow citizens. cation in the neighborhood schools, which he attended until thirteen years old. After he started to work for himself he was employed at the Barnhart coal mine, opposite his pres- ent home, which supplied all the coal for local well drilling at that time, and from there he changed to the oil business, beginning as a pumper. After two years he went into busi- ness on his own account, and in spite of the fact that he had helped to drill probably more dry holes than any other man in Armstrong county he has made a notable success of his work. It is a fact worthy of record that on Sept. 5, 1899, Mr .. Barnhart drilled the first "Speechly sand" gas well in this country, located about two hundred feet from his pres- ent residence. He proceeded with the drilling On Dec. 6, 1887. Mr. Barnhart married Ella L. Doutt, daughter of John Tarlton and Mary Ann (Campbell) Doutt, of Brady's Bend, the former an old settler of that place, where he was a well-known blacksmith for years. John Tarlton Doutt was the son of John R. Doutt and Lydia (Frantz), daughter of Isaac Frantz, of near Bellefonte, Pa. Mrs. Mary Ann (Campbell) Doutt was the daughter of Samuel Campbell, a farmer near Fairview, Butler Co., Pa., who married Miss Sidney Gibson. Mr. and Mrs. Barnhart have no children. Ever since their marriage they have lived at their present location, on the south side of Kaylor, in spite of all opposition and discouragements, one prominent gas man going so far as to say he was in need of a guardian. However, he was rewarded with one of the largest gas wells in . this part of the country, the production reaching 1,200,000 feet of gas per day. The well is 2,480 feet deep, and the rock pressure at first was 980 pounds, and great difficulty was experienced in getting the output under control, the well "blowing out" three times; a special "packer" had to be made to control it. The rock pressure now is 300 pounds, and the production is still large. Mr. Barnhart at pres- ent has twenty-two producing gas wells and and in 1904 he built the beautiful modern resi- fifteen producing oil wells (all having tele- dence there which they have since occupied. phone connections with his office), besides The property, known as Maple Hill, consists twenty-five miles of gas pipe line.

particularly noted as a fine residence property. The fine lawn is tastefully inclosed with cement blocks, and Mr. Barnhart has built a large buff brick barn with all modern improvements on the place, probably the finest in the county. It is 36 by 46 feet, three stories high, with cement floors and of fireproof construction through- out. Mr. Barnhart has also planted an orchard, of three hundred trees, of various fruits.
GALBRAITH. (I) The family of Gal- braith is of the remotest antiquity-the name being derived from the Celtic. It was in the parish of Baldunoch, County Stirling, that the Galbraiths of Baldunoch, chiefs of the name, had their residence. In Frazer's statistical ac- counts of the inhabitants of the Isle of Gigha, the following occurs: "The majority of them are of the names of Galbraith and McNeill, the former reckoned the more ancient." The Galbraiths in the Gaelic language are called Breatanieh, that is Britons, or the children of the Briton, and theirs was once reckoned a great name in Scotland according to the fol- lowing lines translated from the Gaelic :
Galbraiths from the Red Tower Noblest of Scottish surnames.
The first of the name of whom we have any mention is John Galbraith, who was the father of the following (he probably died be- fore the emigration of his sons from Ireland to America) : James, born 1666, married Re- becca Chambers; John married and left issue, but further than this fact we have no knowl- edge ; after his arrival in America he remained several years in Philadelphia, and some of his children settled west of the Susquehanna in what is now York and Adams counties, and their descendants emigrated to Kentucky.
(II) James Galbraith, son of John Gal- braith, of Scotch parentage, was born in 1666, in North of Ireland, whence he emigrated about the year 1718, settling in Conestoga, afterward Donegal township, then Chester county, Province of Pennsylvania. He was one of the founders of the old Derry Church, a man of prominence, and head of a remark- able family. He died Aug. 23, 1744, and is buried in the old graveyard at Derry. His wife was Rebecca Chambers, daughter of Arthur Chambers. Of his children we have the fol- lowing: John, born 1690, married Janet -; Andrew, born 1692, married and left issue; James, born 1703, married Elizabeth Bertram; Eleanor, married Feb. 27, 1735, Patrick McKinley and had issue (surname
McKinley), John, Joseph and Janet; Isabel, married Oct. 21, 1735, Alexander McMillan ; Rebecca, died in 1748, married
Stewart, and had issue (surname Stewart), Charles, Robert, William, Frances and Mar- garet.
(III) John Galbraith (James, John), born 1690 in the North of Ireland, died October, 1753, in Donegal township, Lancaster Co., Pa .; settled along Donegal Meeting-House run, about one and three-fourth miles below his brother Andrew in 1718; was a mil- ler by trade and built a grist and sawmill in 1721, at the run along the "great road." which very likely branched from the Paxtang and Conestoga road some miles east of Mt. Joy, and extended through the Scotch-Irish settle- ment to the Conoy Indiana town; he also kept an "ordinary"; was elected sheriff of the county of Lancaster in 1731, and was a mem- ber of the first jury drawn in that county. He married Janet ,born about 1693, and they had issue: Robert, born 1715, married Rebecca -; Elizabeth ; Margaret.
(III) Andrew Galbraith (James, John), born about 1692, in the North of Ireland ; came to America with his father and settled along the run which has its source at Donegal Meeting-House, now Lancaster Co., Pa. He was appointed the first coroner, afterward, in 1730, one of the justices of the court of Common Pleas and Quarter Sessions, a posi- tion he held six years. In 1732 he and his neighbor, George Stewart (another account says John Wright, a Quaker), were candidates for the General Assembly. At that time none but freeholders were allowed to vote, and the only polling place was the town of Lancaster, where all voters were obliged to go. Mr. Gal- braith took no active part in the canvass him- self, but his wife mounted her favorite mare, Nelly, road out through the Scotch-Irish set- tlement, and persuaded them to go with her to the county town. She appeared at the court- house leading a procession of mounted men, whom she halted and addressed. The effect was that her husband was triumphantly elected. After his first election he seems to have had no opposition. He took out a patent for 2121/2 acres May 2, 1737, and was one of the first ruling elders of the Donegal Church ; appointed a justice of the peace in 1730, a posi- tion he held until 1747, when he removed west of the Susquehanna ; he served several years in the Provincial Assembly, and was one of the most prominent of the pioneer settlers and a fair and trustworthy officer. After the year 1746, when he disposed of his farm, very lit-

(III) James Galbraith (James, John), born 1703 in the North of Ireland, died June II, 1786, in East Pennsboro township, Cum- berland Co., Pa., and buried in the Derry Church graveyard; he took up a tract in now Derry township, Dauphin county, on Spring creek, not far from the church glebe, the war- rant therefor being granted the 13th of March, 1737 ; he became a man of note on the frontiers, and the early provincial records of Pennsylvania contain frequent reference to him; was elected sheriff of the county in October, 1742; for many years was one of the justices for the county of Lancaster, and served as an officer during the Indian wars of 1755-1763. Toward the Revolutionary period he removed to Cumberland county. He mar- ried April 6, 1734, in Christ Church (at that time the English government recognized only marriages performed in the Church of Eng- land), Philadelphia, Elizabeth Bertram, born 1714 or 1718, according to one account, in the North of Ireland, and according to another at Newcastle upon Tyne, in England, died Feb. 2, 1799, in Derry (or East Pennsboro) town- ship, Dauphin Co., Pa., the daughter of Rev.

He received the best education the schools of that day afforded, and studied surveying, a profession he followed many years. During the French and Indian wars Colonel Galbraith served as an officer in a company of rangers for the protection of the frontiers. From 1760 to 1775, acting in his professional capacity, he surveyed the greater portion of the land located in the present counties of Dauphin, Perry and Juniata. He was a member of the Provincial convention of Jan. 23, 1775; dele- gate to the Provincial conference of June 18, 1776; member of the constitutional conven- tion of July 15, 1776.

Council as county lieutenant of Cumberland, April 5, 1777. This office he resigned in August following, when he entered the commissary department of the Con- tinental establishment. He was commis- sioned commissary general of purchases Feb. 19, 1778, a position he held over three years, including one of the most trying periods of the war-the cantonment at Valley Forge. He was a man of large fortune and recourse, so that, during the long and severe winter, with the aid of personal friends, he made an ad- vance of $6,000,000, for use of the patriot army. Millions of dollars passed through his hands without a suspicion of his purity and disinterestedness. Owing to his personal sac- rifices, however, Colonel Blaine's estate be- came impaired, although his fortune re- mained ample. While in the service he en- joyed the confidence of Washington and his fellow officers. It was at his home that the
