Barne was the only son of Lieutenant-Colonel Michael Barne and Mary Boucherett, daughter of Ayscoghe Boucherett. He served as a captain in the 12th Royal Lancers.[2] In 1830, he was elected Member of Parliament for the rotten borough of Dunwich, succeeding his father as MP. He held the seat until 1832, when it was abolished under the Reform Act 1832 (2 & 3 Will. 4. c. 45).[1] He lived at Sotterley HalI and served as High Sheriff of Suffolk in 1851.[3]

In 1834, Barne married Mary Anne Elizabeth Honywood, the eldest daughter of Sir John Courtenay Honywood, 5th Baronet. Their son, Frederick St John Barne, later served as Member of Parliament for East Suffolk.[4]
