The community began with seven houses, which Barrett built with lumber from his land. He set up farms, a sawmill, a gristmill, and a coffee mill. He also gave land for Shiloh Baptist Church.[2] The town eventually was given a postal station, and became known as Barrett Station.[1] The population of the town was 2,872 according to the 2000 census. It remains a largely African-American neighborhood and celebrates its heritage every Juneteenth.[2] See also
