Enlisted Jul. 19, 1862, in Suffield, CT.
Mustered in Aug. 24, 1862.
From page 28 of 'Connecticut Yankees in Antietam' by John Burnham
With the exception of Captain Newton Mantoss, who was killed early in the regiment's fight and carried to the rear, the dead of the 16th Connecticut were interred near a large tree that Burnham marked on all sides so it could easily be discovered. Barnett was buried on the north side of that tree with his Company D comrades: Corporals Horace Warner of Suffield and Michael Grace of Enfield and Privates Nelson E. Snow and George Allen, also of Suffield. Privates Henry Aldrick of Bristol, John Bingham of East Haddam and Theodore DeMars of Cromwell and Sergent Wadsworth Washburn of Berlin were also buried in the large trench.
