Lyman Eddy Barnes Sr. (June 30, 1855 – January 16, 1904) was an American lawyer and Democratic politician from Appleton, Wisconsin. He was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, representing Wisconsin's 8th congressional district during the 53rd Congress (1893–1895). Earlier in his career, he served as district attorney of Outagamie County, Wisconsin. [1]
Lyman Barnes was born in Weyauwega, Wisconsin. He attended the public schools in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, until age 17 when he began studying law in the office of Earl P. Lynch and Charles Barber of Oshkosh. He finished his legal education at the law department of Columbia College, in New York City, graduating in 1876. [2]
He immediately returned to Wisconsin, moved to Appleton, Wisconsin, and was admitted to the bar there later that year. He formed a law partnership in 1877 with John Goodland, father of future governor Walter Samuel Goodland. In 1882, he moved to Rockledge, Florida, and practiced law there for about five years before returning to Appleton.
He was elected district attorney of Outagamie County in 1890. [3]
Barnes was elected as a member of the Democratic Party to the 53rd United States Congress (March 4, 1893 – March 3, 1895). While in Congress, he represented Wisconsin's 8th congressional district. He was an unsuccessful candidate for reelection in 1894 to the 54th United States Congress.

On January 10, 1904, Barnes suffered an acute attack of Appendicitis and was taken into the hospital, where surgery was performed. For the first several days after the surgery, his condition appeared to improve, but his condition deteriorated badly on January 15, he spiked a fever and suffered from intense pain and delirium. He died early in the morning on January 16, 1904, at St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Appleton. [4]
He was interred at Riverside Cemetery in Appleton. [5]
