The Barker Family Crest
Rowland Barker of Woolerton, Co. Salop and Co. Worcester, England, was granted the coat of arms we give in 1582. His son, fames, sailed for New England in 1634, from Harwick, Essex Co., England. He died at sea, and his son fames Barker, is the ancestor of the Rhode Island Barkers. His name is among those appearing in the Royal Charter, granted in 1663, by Charles II. In 1678 he was elected Deputy-Governor of the Colony of Rhode Island. He died in 1702. This family is absolutely distinct from the Barker family of Massachusetts, mentioned in Gores Roll of Arms.
