History: Charles Barton or better known as Barney, is the older brother of Harold and Edith Barton. Barney was the oldest son and often he was spoiled when the family tried to give him all he wanted when they could afford it. They lived out on their family farm in Waverly Iowa. When he was old enough he worked at his father's butcher shop to help out and gain a bit of money for the family. It wasn't long before Edith had another son whom they named Clinton. Being the older brother, Barney often protected Clint out of family loyalty whenever Clint got into trouble or got hurt in some way. Eventually the brothers started to see a darker side of their father as he started to become an alcoholic and would come home drunk. This scared the two boys, and one night Barney snapped after he witnessed their father beat their mother savagely. That night Barney packed a few things, and his brother left with him. They never exactly knew what happened to their parents after that, but he wasn't going to stick around to find out.
After running away from the Barton family farm the two were put in several foster care homes, but it never seemed to work out. Eventually they did find something that would work out in the end. Barney found fliers around town announcing the arrival of a circus that was coming to town. To escape their foster life, they would join the circus. The first night that the circus arrived, they asked to join, and they got one of the lowest jobs possible like cleaning out animal stalls and cleaning up after the shows.
One day things changed for them as Barney found Clint playing with one of the props which happened to be a bow and arrow. But he took it away before the teen could hurt himself, explaining it to him that it wasn't a toy. Two of the performers in the circus happened to notice the argument take place between the two brothers, a man known as Swordsman and the original Trickshot came over. They showed the two boys how to use the weapon and both seemed rather impressed. Barney and Clint both got their chance to try at the arrow, but it was a little sloppy on the first shot Trickshot and Swordsman both realized these two had potential to be archers one day and asked to see if they could train every day by their leader. And the practice paid off.
Barney and his brother stayed in the circus for some time, but eventually Barney wanted to pursue his educational career and gave Clint an option to join him before he left. But after waiting at the bus stop, Clint never showed up and the brother left. That was when his anger and jealousy started to come into him as he hated his brother. Barney got his GED after a few years of schooling and with a new out look on life, the man went to work on a life of crime, he never forgot his old roots of working with the circus. And next time he sees his brother things may not end so well.
