Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales
In 1588, while maintaining his position at Winchester, Barlow began an association with Lichfield as prebend of Colwich, which in the following year was transferred to the 'golden prebend' of Sawley with which came the position of treasurer of Lichfield Cathedral. He afterwards became a chaplain to Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales, son of James I, and finally archdeacon of Salisbury (1615).
