Situate Mass, November 8 th 1820
I Charles Turner of said Situate, testify & say, that having lived forty five years in said Town. I was on my first coming to said Town acquainted with the Father of Daniel Barlow , or Barlew . I understood from sundry old writings the the Old Man spelt his Name Barlow , and consequently, when I have had occasion to write the Name of any of the family I have spelt it Barlow . I assisted Daniel to prepare his evidence to entitle him to a pension, and in those papers probably wrote it Barlow , the family are generally illiterate, I have enquired of several of them, by whom I learn that the present generation of whom Daniel is one, have spelt the name Barlow . The Number of his Pension Certificate, of which I am now in possession is 9294 .
