2. Previous researchers have listed Timothy and James as twins. The following Website 4 Sep 2007 www.douglaslibrary.org/barbour. The Douglas Library in Hebron, Connecticut has "Town of Hebron Vital Records: Barbour Collection 1708-1854," p. 10, shows a birth for Timothy, b. 29 May 1745, but none for James.
