Robert was a great nephew of Angelica Singleton, who married the oldest son of Martin van Buren (8th President of America)
A collection of books known as "The Barnwell-Singleton Collection", was donated to the University of South Carolina, Columbia, by Mr. & Mrs. David Phillips, in early 1997, from the family library in the home of Miss Malinda Barnwell of Florence, South Carolina. It consists of two groups of books.
One group contains books from the library of the Revd. Robert Woodward Barnwell (1831-1863), Professor and Chaplain of South Carolina College, and of his son the Revd. Robert Woodward Barnwell (1860-1952), Miss Barnwell's father.
These books cover general belles-lettres, they also have a strong theological (high Episcopalian) element. Notable among them is a first edition of 'George Eliot's' first book, The Life of Jesus, by David Friedrich Strauss, 3 vols. (London: 1846), in original boards, and many volumes of the Tractarian series Lives of the Fathers.
The second group is from the library of Angelica Singleton Van Buren (1816-1877), the South Carolina-born daughter-in-law who was President Martin Van Buren's hostess at the White House. It includes the literary annuals and album poems of her schooldays in Philadelphia, books bought during her European honeymoon tour in 1839, and books reflecting her later interest in social conditions. Additional items with the collection include books from her niece Mary Carter Singleton (a group with many volumes by or about women, from the 1840s and early 1850s), and books from her three sons, Singleton, Travis and Martin.
