A name of note in barn building (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abner

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a name' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'note in barn building' is the wordplay.
'note' becomes 'e' (musical note).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'building' is an anagram indicator.
'barn' anagrammed gives 'abnr'.
'e' inserted inside 'abnr' is 'ABNER'.

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for abner that I've seen is " Biblical character".)
