Biography

Barnard earned his MA de­gree from Har­vard Uni­ver­si­ty, then re­ceived an ap­point­ment from Gov­er­nor Dud­ley as an ar­my chap­lain.

After serv­ing at Aca­cia and Port Roy­al, he sailed to Bar­ba­dos in 1709, then to Lon­don.

He re­turned to Am­eri­ca in 1710, and in 1714 he and Ed­ward Ho­ly­oke be­came joint pas­tors of a church in Mar­ble­head, Mas­sa­chu­setts. In 1716, the church split, and Bar­nard re­ceived a full time pas­tor­ate.
