About

Protecting the American Dream since 1873

Legacy of Protection

At Barr’s Insurance, we have been dedicated to “Protecting the American Dream” since our founding in 1873 in Oil City, Pennsylvania—the birthplace of the oil industry. Our journey began when Wilson R. Barr became one of the first agents for Travelers Insurance Company, marking the start of our enduring legacy as the oldest independent agency continuously representing Travelers.

 

Over the years, we have evolved into a full-service independent agency, offering a comprehensive range of insurance solutions to meet the diverse needs of our clients.
