Peggy, Do you have any dates, or locations for any of these Bartlett's?? Ruth

Do you know what county in Illinois he was born? When I go to the library I'll do some checking. Good luck. Donna

Hi everyone. Went to my local library last week to do a little research. Looked up the name BARTLETT in an index of our local cemetery, West Dundee Cemetery, West Dundee, Illinois. Under BARTLETT this is what I found: Row 31 Lots 118 & 136 Esther A. Wife of B. S. Bartlett died February 28, 1880, at the age 31 years 5 months. This plot belonged to LOBDELL. B. H. Lobdell wife Anna. Esther perhaps was their daughter. This week I volunteer at the Gail Borden Library in Elgin, Illinois in the genealogy department. I'll do more research at that time and report into everyone. Do I have any cousins out there that can help me? Either in Vermont, New York, Wisc. and/or PA. I'm researching my gggrandfather DANIEL JOHN BARTLETT, born February 13, 1836, in New York. Married July 4, 1861, in Bloomfield, Walworth Cty, Wisc. and died (I have the date of May 24, 1902, in Sparta, Wisc.) not sure on location. He married Alvina Schermerhorn, rumor has it Alvina was part American Indian-the Fox Tribe, I would love to prove that! Getting back to my Bartletts, Daniel's father was Lock or Locke BARTLETT born in Vermont (date, I'm guessing 1805) and that's all I know. Can anyone help me-please? Thanks again for all your help and encouragement. See you in the CHAT room. Donna

I am looking for the parents of my Ggrandfather Horace E. Bartlett. He was born in Illinois in 1858 or 1859. We have found him in the 1880 Wisconsin census working as a hired hand for his future in-laws. The census report says he was born in Illinois and his parents were born in Ohio. His marriage certificate says he was living in Macon Co., Missouri when he married Ella Lavina Abrams in Blue Earth Co., Minnesota. Horace and Ella divorced after about five years and the story goes that Horace died in a wagon accident going west with a Mormon wagon train. Horace and Ella had one son Guy Edward Bartlett who married Clara Eveline Morrow. Guy and Clara eventually made their way to New York State where they bought a farm and had a family of 13 children. I and a lot of my cousins would like to know which line of Bartletts we are decended from. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Phil Kratzer

History of Benton County WASHINGTON COUNTY. page 974 Augustus Buckner Lewis.Closely connected with the mercantile interests of Washington County, Ark., is the name of Augustus B. Lewis, who was born in Hempstead County, Ark., April 28, 1835, the son of Joseph and Mary Bartlett (Brown) Lewis, grandson of John Lewis, and great-grandson of John or Hugh Lewis, who came over from Ireland at an early date, and settled in North Carolina, but afterward moved to Kentucky, where he remained until 1804. when he moved to Washington County, Mo. Joseph Lewis was born in Livingston County, Ky., in 1802, and in 1822 he went on horseback and alone to Lawrence County, Ark., thence to Independence County, thence to Pulaski, and later to Hempstead County, but finally, in 1831, he and a younger brother, Hugh, made a settlement in Washington County, Ark., where he settled with his [p.974] wife and two sons, Rowland and A. B., in 1836. He died in 1884, and lacked but a few days of being eighty-two years of age. He had been a worthy and consistent member of the Christian Church for over forty years, and died in full communion with the faith of the same. Mrs. Lewis passed away in 1875, and was a little over sixty-six years of age. She was also a devout member of the Christian Church. They reared five sons and one daughter: Rowland M., Henry T.

The five brothers were all in the Confederate army, and rendered active and honorable service. The father of these children went south during the war, and after the storm clouds had passed away he returned to find that he had not only lost $20,000 above all indebtedness, but become heavily involved. He went to work, and with hard work and good managment soon surmounted all his difficulties.

Mrs. Barnes is the treasurer of the Ladies' Aid Society of St. John's Episcopal Church, to which she and her husband belong.

California and Californians, Vol. 2 BARTLETT [p.204] CHAPTER XX ABOUNDING LIFE IN EARLY SAX FRANCISCO Under the military rule that continued in California from the seizure of Monterey in 1846 until the news of the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, the pueblo was under a succession of alcaldes,Washington A. Bartlett from August, 1846, to February, 1847; Edwin Bryant to May, George Hyde to March, 1848: John Townsend to August: and T. M. Leavenworth through the remainder of the year. The first city charter for San Francisco, having received the approval of the State Legislature, was adopted May 1, 1850, and Colonel John W. Geary, last of the alcaldes, was elected mayor by a large majority of votes. and thus the city government of the American municipality was instituted. [p.204] CHAPTER XX ABOUNDING LIFE IN EARLY SAX FRANCISCO If San Francisco was the resort of many evil men, it always possessed the power of casting out devils on occasion; if it was over-complacent in the presence of social and political sinning, it was ever capable of being aroused into puissant and virtuous activity; if here and there appeared an eccentric character, like Emperor Norton, it is better remembered for its William T. Coleman, Washington Bartlett, James King of William, and a legion of other such men of rugged virtue and robust valor. Take it all in all, it may well be doubted whether there was ever in the world another such city as was exuberant, tumultuous San Francisco during its first decade as an American municipality. THE REDISCOVERY OF CALIFORNIA'S NATURAL RESOURCES page 404 A bounteous natural resource in whose possession California stands unsurpassed and which has been hitherto too little appreciated consists in her many and varied mineral springs. These are of a very wide geographical distribution, from Siskiyou to San Diego, and of various qualities of healing. Lake County is particularly rich in the number and variety of its mineral waters. Some of the best known springs of the Stateto mention only a fewinclude Bartlett and Hot Borax Springs [p.404] of Lake County, the Geysers and Skaggs' Hot Springs of Sonoma County, Calistoga Hot Springs and Geyser of Napa County, Arrowhead Springs of San Bernardino County, Elsinore Hot Springs of Riverside County, and El Paso de Robles Springs of San Luis Obispo County. In everincreasing numbers the people from near and far are discovering the beneficial results as well as pleasurable experiences to be attained by a sojourn at some one of the myriad of California's mineral springs. POLITICAL HISTORY TO 1901 page 413 In the campaign of 1886 there appeared an almost bewildering number of parties and candidates. Besides the regular Democrats and Republicans, the Prohibitionists, the United Labor Party, the Farmers, and the American Party made their respective bids for the suffrage of the citizens, while the Anti-Chinese and the Irrigation conventions were far from being devoid of political significance. The State election held [p.413] November 2 resulted in a victory for the Democrats in governor, secretary of state, attorney-general, and several other officers, while the Republicans elected the lieutenant-governor, superintendent of public instruction, and a few other officers. Washington Bartlett, Governor-elect, a pioneer of 1849, had served as San Francisco's first American alcalde and was Mayor when elected to the governorship. On his death, September 12, 1887, Lieutenant-Governor R. W. Waterman (Republican) succeeded him as governor. I.LITERATURE. page 537 More fully than any other of the literary periodicals of the State, the Overland Monthly has earned the right to be recognized as the typical magazine of California. When Anton Roman, a San Francisco publisher and book seller, decided to undertake the publication of a magazine devoted to the development of California and the great West, [p.537] he turned to Francis Bret Harte, whose writing had already attracted considerable attention and whose exacting literary ideals marked him as one in a multitude, as editor and guide. At first hesitant and beset with misgivings about the enterprise, Harte was reassured by promises of contributions from the best writers on the Coast, the consent of Noah Brooks and W. C. Bartlett to join him in an editorial board, and most of all by mutual agreements with Charles Warren Stoddard and Ina Donna Coolbrith; he therefore engaged to become pilot of the new literary ship, whose name he himself suggested, and defended in his first editorial, July, 1868. The grizzly bear, also, associated with the Overland from the beginning, was suggested by Harte, who wrote:

Hi Group, I have hired a genealogist to help me with my Bartlett branch, mine coming from Columbia County Georgia. I am sharing with you a small email back to me from the genealogist I hired concerning some information on SC Bartletts. Hope someone here may be able to use something I paid for. At least then I would think I had been up to something good. LOL Take care. Still looking.

Hello everyone, It's me.. The quiet one.. Anyway, I was just reminded that I had posted a notice out to all of you on the 1ST Chat Session of the Bartlett Roots Mailng List.. and I had set a date of one of three and but I had not set a time.. How is Thursday Night for everyone.. Say about 10 PM East Coast time (NY time) that is 8PM Illinois, then 7PM Mountain, and 6 California time.. If that is not convenient time.. Please let me know.. I will be happy to set it or even have it on two different time if there is enough interest.. The Chat will be held in the Bartlett Chat room which is located on the <A HREF="Http://WWW.Bartlettgenealogy.com/">Bartlett Genealogy Foundation</A> web page.. If you haven't been there to check it out then let's do so before the Chat.. I would like to make sure that everyone can be accomodated with this chat.. If someone is not able to get into the chat room, because of their computer or for what ever reason, let me know.. I'll do what I can to accomodate anyone who is interested.. If you have a favorite story on Richard, let me know as I would love to have you tell it.. My goal for this wonderful and fun group of Cousins, is to see at least one Chat a month, it doesn't have to be on the Bartlett's.. It can be on Genealogy research.. Best tools, where to find certain materials.. etc.. It can be on Bartlett's that served in the Civil War, or the Revolutionary War.. It could be on a Bartlett Reunion you might have had, or like what someone from my line just sent me, they found it in a local library .. A whole folder of stories on the Bartlett's of Ohio including a series of Bartlett reunions where several generations of different Bartlett Cousins of different Bartlett Families all got together and had several reunions from the early 1820 to 1874 .. The stories of what happen, the secretaries and how they felt about the reunions.. etc.. This packet is over 55 pages.. Well I look forward to hearing from everyone on July 16 at 10PM for one hour of fun and Story Telling.. Ruth

Oh that would be so very cool if you can help. I know that my mother-in-law will be very excited also. She started researching her husband's family after he passed away last yr Easter Sunday. I took over her search (she gave up) so my son will know where his (step) grandpa came from. Plus I loving learning more about the past history. I do hope we have a connection.

Alli, I think I have a connection to that Alice Theodocia Bartlett.. I have a family of Bartlett's and several other families that were born in Mass went to Ohio with thier parents, kids of the different families married each other in Ohio then went to Illinois, where they spread out and multiplied.. Then a couple of children of the original Bartlett's with thier families in toe went to Iowa, Nebraska, North and & South Dakota.. That is where I'm presently working on locating the children and the other sibilings.. Your Alice Theodocia Bartlett is a unusual name for a family.. Bu why I'm responding to you is because I have 4 Theodocia in different spellings in my line.. Let me check with some of my closer connections and see what I can do.. Ruth

Donna, You can use the Bartlett Roots mailing list address as your post.. Ruth

Ruth, Thank you for the list. I went to the library the other and did a little research. What address do I use to broadcast my findings. It's not much but perhaps it will help someone. And I would like to ask if there isn't a cousin out there that might be able to help me in my research. Thank you, Donna
