Barney won election as constable in the town of Starkey in 1857.  He ran
on the Black Republican ticket. Barney also served in the Civil War.
He enlisted as a private in Company A, 76th Infantry Regiment of New York.
He transferred into  Company B, 147th Infantry Regiment of New York on 28
January 1865.  Shortly after transferring to the 147th, he was wounded and
hospitalized at Campbells Hospital in Washington, DC, but in April of 1865,
it was reported that he was improving.  Barney was discharged from the

Penn Yan Democrat: 7 June 1912
Deaths - Kishpaugh - In Bennettsburg, May 20, 1912, Barney Kishpaugh,
aged 90 years.  He spent the greater part of his life at Starkey, N.Y.
On September 11, 1863, he enlisted and served until the close of the war
as a private in Capt. E. Swann's Co. K, 76th regiment New York Volunteers.
This regiment, under command of Col. Cook, served in the third brigade, Third
division, Fifth corps, and participated in 32 battles, the principal ones,
Mine Run, Wilderness, Spottsylvania, North Ann, Cold Harbor, Petersburg,
Weldon, Poplar Grove Church, Hatcher's Run.  Mr. Kishpaugh spent some time
in Campbell's Hospital, from where he was honorably discharged.  His last
illness was of only 24 hours' duration.

Barney and his wife, Juliette nee Eaton are buried in Hillside Cemetery,
Millard St. (Rt 14 A) in Dundee, Yates Cty, New York.  There is a discrepancy
with the listingon GenWeb as they have two Barney Kishpaughs listed.
They are as follows:

Kishpaugh, Barney 1821 - 1912
Kishpaugh, Barney 1811 - 1901 This is the listing that does not seem to be valid.
