}}Joel Allen Barber (January 17, 1809 – June 28, 1881) was a U.S. Representative from Wisconsin.[1]

Barber was born in the town of Georgia, Vermont, in Franklin County.[2] After graduating from the Georgia Academy he attended the University of Vermont in Burlington, where he studied law. Upon graduation, Barber read law with George P. Marsh. He was admitted to the bar in 1833[2] in Prince George's County, Maryland, where he was teaching school, and commenced practice in Fairfield, Vermont.

Barber moved to Wisconsin in 1837, settling in Lancaster, where he continued to practice law.[2] He served as county clerk for Grant County, for four years and as district attorney for three terms. He served as member of the first constitutional convention of Wisconsin in 1846.[2]

Barber was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly in 1852, 1853, 1863, and 1864, serving as speaker in 1864.[2] He served as member of the Wisconsin State Senate in 1856 and 1857.[2]

After establishing a law partnership with George Clementson in 1869, Barber was elected to the United States House of Representatives as a Republican, serving in the Forty-second and Forty-third Congresses from March 4, 1871 to March 3, 1875.[2] He served as the representative of Wisconsin's 3rd congressional district. While Barber was serving in Congress, George Clementson conducted the legal work of their firm. Barber was not a candidate for renomination in 1874, and was succeeded by Henry S. Magoon.[3] Upon leaving Congress, he resumed the practice of law with Clementson.

Barber died in Lancaster, Wisconsin, June 28, 1881,[2] following an attack of peritonitis[3] and was interred in Hillside Cemetery.
