Career

As a trusted member of the court, he was appointed to the directorship of the "Second Westminster Company" charged by James with translating the New Testament epistles for the King James Version of the Bible. He participated in the early planning for the translation, and had supported the scholarship of linguist Edward Lively, among other contributions to the project.

Barlow's scholarly career began at St John's College, Cambridge, where he had graduated in 1584, earned a Master of Arts in 1587, and was admitted as a Fellow in 1590.[1] His publications showed his talents both for scholarship and preferment.

Death

Barlow was buried at St Mary's Church, Buckden, Huntingdonshire. His wife's name is unknown but his daughter and co-heir, Alice, married Sir Henry Yelverton, Knt.[2]
