Son of Robert McFarland Barkley and Margaret Elizabeth Shaw. Married Alice Frances Watson in Montague County, Texas in 1896. John was working in the gin when the cyclone hit in November 1905, killing him and destroying their home. His widow paid a man to place a tombstone on his grave before she took her children to Texas, but it was never done. His grave is still unmarked.
