James Jackson "J.J." Barnes was a member of the Peace Society which objected to the War Between the States on principle. As a result of that affiliation, he became a member of the infamous chain gang rounded up in Searcy County Arkansas and marched to Little Rock in Pulaski County and forced to join the Army of the Confederacy. After his term was up, he joined the Union side.Both James and his second wife, Tennessee, are buried in the Barnes Home Cemetery Arkansas, located on the old William J. Barnes homestead in Searcy County, Arkansas.
