James Barnes (general)
James Barnes (December 28, 1801 – February 12, 1869) was a railroad executive and a Union Army general in the American Civil War.
==Early life==
Barnes was born in Boston, Massachusetts. He attended the Boston Latin School and graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1829, in the same class as Robert E. Lee. However, at age 28 he was older than most West Point cadets upon completion, and placed fifth out of 46 cadets. He was then commissioned a brevet second lieutenant in the 4th U.S. Artillery, but spent most of his army service as an instructor of tactics and French at the Academy.〔Eicher, p. 116.〕
Barnes married Charlotte Adams Sanford in 1832 (sister of John F. A. Sanford). After the birth of his second son, John Sanford Barnes, he resigned his commission on July 31, 1836, to become a railroad civil engineer〔 and by 1839 he was superintendent of the Western Railroad, a job he would hold for 22 years.
