"William Barroll V. eldest son ofRev. William Barroll and Ann W
illiamson, after graduating at Washington College in 1783, rea
d law under Luther Martin, and was admitted to the Bar of Kent C
ounty, March 19 1787. He early took high rank in his professio
n was a skillful pleader, an effective and forcible speaker. H
e always enjoyed a large and lucrative practice and was regarde
d as one of the leaders of the bar.There were but few cases o
f importance tried in Kent, for nearly 40 years after his admiss
ion, in which he was not of counsel. He was a man of high liter
ary attainments. His general library was one of the largest an
d choicest in the state, while at the same time, he had,perhaps
, as complete and extensive a law library as was in the hands o
f any member of the bar outside of Baltimore City. ...
His bearing was dignified and courtley, and those who knew hims
ay he was one of the finest types of a gentleman of the old scho
ol. Hisnephew Benjamin Crockett Barroll, of Baltimore, in writ
ing of him, used language so appropriately applicable....."My U
ncle Willia, your husband's grandfather, was a lovely character
, he was one of the most dignifed and finest lookiing men I eve
r saw. He reminds me, beyond any man I have ever seen of wha
t a 'Nobleman' ought to be."
...In religion he was a devout member of the Protestant Episcopa
l Church and vestryman of Chester as well as of I.U. Parishes
. He was a member of the Board of Visitors and Governors of Was
hington College, and a leading Mason.

g courtesy of his professional deportment are well known and rem
embered....
