    [Note: the Merrick Genealogy says, p. 28, "Nothing definite is known of Barnabas after he left Harwich", speculating he lived in Barre on his way to Vermont. The following study shows he spent over 2 decades in Warwick, MA, from 1779 until 1800, moving there from Barre, and ending up in New York afterwards after a brief stay in Connecticut, possibly never actually residing in Vermont.]
