Barbauld, Rochemont
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
or an English dissenting minister, was born of French parents in England in 1748. He received the rudiments of his education at home; was intended by his father for the Church of England, though educated at the Dissenting Academy at Warrington to avoid the expense, and hazard to the morals, of a university education, and in 1773 entered the Dissenting-ministry at Highgate, where he preached about a year. In the year following he removed to Palgrave, Suffolk, and took charge of a neighboring congregation of Dissenters in Norfolk. There he taught a very flourishing school. Eleven years later he removed to Hampstead, thence to Stoke- Newington, where he remained until about the time of his death, which occurred Nov. 11, 1808. Mr. Barbauld was liberal in theology, a man of active benevolence, of free and courageous spirit, and possessor of a winning simplicity and natural enthusiasm. See Whittemore, Modern History of Universalism, p. 248.
