HELP! Is this my ancester? Rev Albert Barnes b1798. I have a 1956 set of his books. [closed]

Question

I am about to move 1000 miles and am getting rid of books.  I have a 14 book set of Rev Albert Barnes Notes on the Old Testament published in 1956 which belonged to minister uncle.  On my way to offer them for sale I belatedly thought about checking out potential relationship and brought them back.  I don't have all my Barnes lined up.  These are not worth much but I might want to hang onto them a while longer just because I am sentimental.  Albert Barnes' Wikipedia page is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Barnes_(theologian) Author]

I would add the tag “notables” to this posting

Thanks

Found that Albert's son, Albert Henry had two daughters.

Hi Mary, I have my doubts he is related to our Barnes'.

But a very interesting personality and may be welcome text to any Presbyterian clergy.

He would be connected to contemporary Barnes if a female descendant married into the family.  I did not research his two granddaughters.  I had not thought of Presbyterian historians or collectors being interested.  Thanks for the thought

Answer 1

He is a notable by Wikitree definition having a Wikipedia source. I’ve added the Notable Sticker and Wikipedia source link. Very interesting. I personally would keep the books. A huge part of historical value 

Thank you for sharing
