After he had given evidence of piety he was urged to devote himself to the Episcopal ministry; this, however, he objected to, and joined the Congregationalists; was educated at Rotherham College, and became pastor at Bakewell. Mr. Barton subsequently labored successively at Brassington, Ravenstonedale. Wirksworth, and at Mattock Bath, where he died in 1874. See (Lond.) Cong. Yearbook, 1875, p. 312.
