• Born ~1833, son of William Barton (1785-1846) and Mary Irving (1804-1890).
• Possibly known as "Bowman Barton" (see ThePeerage.com where he is so named).
• Supposedly lived at Botcherby Grange. Inherited property between The Crescent and Barton's Place in Carlisle.
• Died in 1893, aged ~60.

Denis Perriam records that: "When Mary Barton died in 1890 she bequeathed to her daughter Elizabeth “her house in the Crescent and warehouse adjoining” and to her son Thomas the premises behind “where-in the business of Barton and Sons is now carried on,” reported the Journal. But Thomas Barton, the coach builder, did not outlive his mother long because his will was published in the Journal in April 1893. His brother Robert Barton (1828-1917) had no interest in the firm so it was offered as a going concern by the executors with a lease on the works."
