Son of Dea. Henry Barstow (May 27, 1787 Campton Hollow, Campton, Grafton County, New Hampshire- Feb. 4, 1849 Lowell, Middlesex County, Massachusetts) and Frances.
Alfred married Mary Rhodes on November 11, 1868 in Santa Clara County, California. Daughter Grace was born in 1871 and died April 24, 1956 in Los Angeles, California. Son Alfred was born in 1875 and died December 28, 1864 in Los Angeles, California.
Alfred Barstow, of the law firm of Rhodes & Barstow, died suddenly at his home in Oakland Tuesday evening of fatty degeneration of the heart.
Judge Barstow was a native of Vermont, 65 years of age and came to California in 1849 around the Horn in the ship Magnolia, which had sailed from New Bedford, Mass. Among the other passengers were the late Thomas H. Selby, John F. Pope, R.A. Swain and S.M. Collins.
Mr. Barstow went to the mines for a time but soon came back to this city to study law and was admitted to practice. In the sixties he was elected a Justice of the Peace and while sitting as Police Judge among the prisoners brought before him one morning was Charles L. Clemens, one of the bright young men of the Call's local staff, who has since become known to fame as Mark Twain and who was charred with being drunk. The usual fine was imposed but "Mark begged off, saying that he had "nothing in his pockets but a plug of tobacco and a broken jackknife," and the fine was remitted.
During the two administrations of President Grant, Mr. Barstow was the United States mail agent for this coast and for many years was secretary of the Republican State Central Committee. In 1879 he formed a law partnership with his father-in-law, A.L. Rhodes, at the end of that gentleman's term on the Supreme bench.
Mr. Barstow was a very genial, kindly man with many warm friends. He was devoted to the members of his family with whom he resided in Oakland. He leaves a widow, a grown daughter and a son now in the senior class at Stanford University. The deceased was a member of the Pioneers' Society. The funeral will take place from the residence in Oakland. *Source-The San Francisco call, March 14, 1895, Page 14
