Series 1-3 contain materials related to three generations of naval officera in the Barron family. Respectively, they are Samuel Barron (1765-1810), Samuel Barron (1809-1888), and Samuel Barron (1836-1891). Series 4 contains reference materials relating to the Barron family.","There were three generations of naval officers named Samuel Barron. Samuel Barron (1765-1810) served in Virginia State Navy, then became a captain in U. S. Navy when it was formed. He was commander-in-chief of a Mediterranean Squadron in the War with Tripoli. Samuel Barron (1808-1888) served as captain in U. S. Navy and as a flag officer of Confederate States Navy in command of the European Theater. Samuel Barron (1836-1892) was a lieutenant in the merchant marine before the Civil War and served as a clerk to his father during the Civil War. ","Samuel Barron (1765-1810) was an officer in the United States Navy who served during the American Revolution, Quasi-War with France, and the First Barbary War. Barron studied at the College of William \u0026 Mary before serving in the Virginia State Navy during the American Revolution. Following the Revolution, he was a merchant captain before joining the United States Navy. He served in the Navy during the Quasi-War with France and the First Barbary War, attaining the rank of Commodore before returning to the United States due to poor health in 1805. After his return, he commanded the Gosport Shipyard in Virginia, but he never fully recovered his health and died in 1810. Barron's younger brother, James Barron, also attained the rank of Commodore. He was involved in the Chesapeake-Leopard Affair in 1807, which resulted in his court marshal for neglect of duty. He was also a participant in the duel which resulted in the death of Commodore Stephen Decatur in 1820.","Samuel Barron's son, Samuel Barron (1809-1888), was ordered to duty at the Gosport Shipyard at the age of six, making him the youngest person ever commissioned to active duty in the U.S. Navy. Barron sailed for the first time at age ten. He sailed in the Mediterranean, West Indies, West coast of Africa, and both coasts of South America. He also served during the Mexican-American War. Barron was made a lieutenant at age 18, and was promoted to captain in 1855. In 1861, Barron resigned his commission to join the Confederacy during the Civil War. He was tasked with building a navy, and helped procured ships and arms. In August 1861, he was captured by Union forces during an attack on Fort Hatteras. Barron was a prisoner until 1862, when he was exchanged. In 1863, Barron was made a commodore and sent to Europe as the senior Confederate Naval officer there. Following the war, he returned to Virginia and took up farming until his death in 1888.","His son, Samuel Barron (1836-1891), was also a Naval officer. He served as a liuetenant during the Civil War, and achieved the rank of captain by the end of his career.","Samuel Barron Papers (II), Samuel Barron Papers (III), James Barron Papers (Mss. 65 B27), and James Barron Hope Papers (Mss. 65 H77), Special Collections Research Center, William \u0026 Mary Libraries.","Papers and correspondence of three generations of Samuel Barrons, all of whom were involved in naval affairs.

Series 1-3 contain materials related to three generations of naval officera in the Barron family. Respectively, they are Samuel Barron (1765-1810), Samuel Barron (1809-1888), and Samuel Barron (1836-1891). Series 4 contains reference materials relating to the Barron family.","There were three generations of naval officers named Samuel Barron. Samuel Barron (1765-1810) served in Virginia State Navy, then became a captain in U. S. Navy when it was formed. He was commander-in-chief of a Mediterranean Squadron in the War with Tripoli. Samuel Barron (1808-1888) served as captain in U. S. Navy and as a flag officer of Confederate States Navy in command of the European Theater. Samuel Barron (1836-1892) was a lieutenant in the merchant marine before the Civil War and served as a clerk to his father during the Civil War. ","Samuel Barron (1765-1810) was an officer in the United States Navy who served during the American Revolution, Quasi-War with France, and the First Barbary War. Barron studied at the College of William \u0026 Mary before serving in the Virginia State Navy during the American Revolution. Following the Revolution, he was a merchant captain before joining the United States Navy. He served in the Navy during the Quasi-War with France and the First Barbary War, attaining the rank of Commodore before returning to the United States due to poor health in 1805. After his return, he commanded the Gosport Shipyard in Virginia, but he never fully recovered his health and died in 1810. Barron's younger brother, James Barron, also attained the rank of Commodore. He was involved in the Chesapeake-Leopard Affair in 1807, which resulted in his court marshal for neglect of duty. He was also a participant in the duel which resulted in the death of Commodore Stephen Decatur in 1820.","Samuel Barron's son, Samuel Barron (1809-1888), was ordered to duty at the Gosport Shipyard at the age of six, making him the youngest person ever commissioned to active duty in the U.S. Navy. Barron sailed for the first time at age ten. He sailed in the Mediterranean, West Indies, West coast of Africa, and both coasts of South America. He also served during the Mexican-American War. Barron was made a lieutenant at age 18, and was promoted to captain in 1855. In 1861, Barron resigned his commission to join the Confederacy during the Civil War. He was tasked with building a navy, and helped procured ships and arms. In August 1861, he was captured by Union forces during an attack on Fort Hatteras. Barron was a prisoner until 1862, when he was exchanged. In 1863, Barron was made a commodore and sent to Europe as the senior Confederate Naval officer there. Following the war, he returned to Virginia and took up farming until his death in 1888.","His son, Samuel Barron (1836-1891), was also a Naval officer. He served as a liuetenant during the Civil War, and achieved the rank of captain by the end of his career.","Samuel Barron Papers (II), Samuel Barron Papers (III), James Barron Papers (Mss. 65 B27), and James Barron Hope Papers (Mss. 65 H77), Special Collections Research Center, William \u0026 Mary Libraries.","Papers and correspondence of three generations of Samuel Barrons, all of whom were involved in naval affairs.
