Looking for my dad's first cousin, Roy Bartlett, who emigrated to Canada in the 1950s. Story goes he started a milk round there. He was born in Deptford, London in the 1930s. He had a sister Catherine (Kitty) and an older brother, Harry, who settled in the Herne Bay area. Roy's mother's name was Catherine Lilburn. My dad is Ronnie Wilson.

jthills;

Josiah BARTLETT, the Signer, only had 2 surviving sons who had children, and neither was your Robert BARTLETT.

Josiah BARTLETT b 21 Nov 1729 Amesbury, Essex Co, MA; SDI; d 19 May 1795 Kingston, Rockingham Co, NH; m 15 Jan 1754 Kingston, Rockingham Co, NH Mary BARTLETT b 27 Dec 1730 Amesbury, MA; d 14 Jul 1789 Kingston

child #6. Levi BARTLETT Hon b 2 Sep 1763 Kingston, Rockingham Co, NH; d 30 Jan 1828 Kingston, Rockingham Co, NH; 1m 6 Nov 1791 Sarah HOOK b 22 Dec 1765 Davnille, NH; Levi 2m 18 Apr 1807 Kingston, NH Abigail STEVENS

child #9. Josiah BARTLETT b 29 Aug 1768 Kingston, Rockingham Co, NH; Physician; d 16 Apr 1838 Stratham, NH; 1m 3 Jun 1792 Sarah Ann WINGATE b 7 Nov 1769 Hampton Falls, NY; d 27 Dec 1808 stratham, NH; Josiah 2m 25 Apr 1812 Hannah WEEKS b 13 Feb 1778 Greenland, NH; d 6 Aug 1865 Stratham, NH; no Children

child #10. Ezra BARTLETT Dr b 13 Sep 1770 Kingston, Rockingham Co, NH; Physician.; d 6 Feb 1848 Haverhill, Grafton Co, NH; m 30 Jan 1799 Hannah GALE b 30 Jan 1777 Kingston, Rockingham Co, NH

So you might want to investigate the brother and/or uncles of Josiah BARTLETT The Signer. His family tree is posted many places on the internet.

Robert Bartlett

jthills — 2009-11-05 19:01:44Z

I am looking for the parents of Robert Bartlett born 19 July 1786 in Colchester, New London, Ct and died in Lockport, Wills County, Illinois 10 April 1853. He married Veralle Newton in Dec 1811. The family believes they are descendants of Josiah Bartlett, the famous one, but I have not yet made that connection. Does anyone have information on parents of Robert.

Albert BARTLETT b c1828 NY or MA; d c1863

Since Albert's birth is given as 3 different places, it's hard to know for sure. I'm guessing that he died soon after 1863 - perhaps in CivWar, and wife then lived with her parents.

If you know of a living male BARTLETT from this line, you might want to have him participate in the BARTLETT-DNA Project. We have over 160 participants and have matching DNA for 18 separate lines, one of which you probably tie into. You can search "DNA" on this board to see a lot about our project.

Dear Bunnyhamm1,

My great grandfather was Harry Wisner Bartlett, born in Detroit Michigan, died in 1931. Harry is son of Albert Bartlett. My research ends with Albert being born in 1830 and died in 1868. Do you have a place of birth or place of death for either Harry or Albert?

Ken;

I'm not sure which line this is, but you may want to consider participation in our BARTLETT-DNA Project. A simple cheek swab and a C-note will tell you which of 18 separate BARTLETT lines you descend from. They have all been verified with matching DNA, and now anyone can take a DNA test and easily determine which line is their's. You can search "DNA" on this Bartlett board to see many of my posts on this topic.

Contact me via email if interested and I can give you more on pricing. You can also look at our testing company at www.familytreedna.com

Shannon;

Have you looked at the Buncombe Co, NC census records? All of the BARTLETTs there fit neatly into one family. This is not my line, but I have extracted all of the census records, which I'll paste below, and my analysis of them confirms what other researchers on this line have determined with much more detailed records.

-1790 Burke Co, NC; Census [4th column]: Jno BARTLET 1010 [John b bef 1774; female ] [John recently married?]

Here is the info I have on William BARTLETT:

[F1B3A4D]. William BARTLETT III b 1798 NC [B0,1,2]; m 1824 Buncombe Co, NC Margaret “Peggy” _____ b 1802 Buncombe Co, NC; d 1863 Buncombe Co, NC (Black Mountain)

Sometimes there is no "smoking gun" readily available, like a bible that says who the parents and children were, or a will that lays it all out - in those cases we use the "preponderance of evidence" method. The BARTLETTs in Buncombe Co, NC were often near each other in the census records, and it's pretty clear they were all from the same family. Have you looked into the Probate Records or annual Tax Lists?

Hope this helps you;

Re: Samuel / Leroy Bartlett family

jimbartlett — 2009-10-21 15:31:18Z

If there is a living Bartlett from this line, a simple cheek swab/DNA test (about a hundred bucks) would very likely confirm your Ancestral BARTLETT line. We have DNA on file for the BARTLETTs who descend from the Mayflower, as well as the line of Josiah, the Signer (which has almost daughtered out - although his brothers and cousins still have BARTLETT descendants), as well as 16 other BARTLETT lines from Colonial America.

We use www.familytreedna.com for the tests. Here is the link to the BARTLETT-DNA Project:

Re: Samuel / Leroy Bartlett family

HKGuns — 2009-10-20 23:49:35Z

Yes, we are cousins! I hear you on that Nash line....Lots of repeats in there and I'm still not sure I have them all correct. This is a lot more time consuming than I'd initially thought.

I don't have any more information on his first wife than it appears you have....If I find something I will be sure to let you know, however, there isn't the level of documentation for this group as compared to the Nash's line.

Re: Samuel / Leroy Bartlett family

patricia_emslie — 2009-10-20 18:01:50Z

Hi,
I am descended from Samuel Leroy Bartlett, who was Leroy's son from his first marriage. I don't know what happened to his wife, but in 1860 Leroy was married to Mary and his 2 sons, including 10-year old Samuel, were living with them. They all moved to the Traverse City area except Samuel; he ended up in Chicago. It looks like we are distant cousins! I have also traced the Nash line through Leroy's mother Achsah Nash (who married Samuel Bartlett -- they sure liked to repeat names!).

This is fantastic information!

But, I'm still a little lost. Maybe I'm just overlooking the obvious, but where did you get the names of John & Agnes' children? I need to find verifiable proof that William is there son. Was there a will or other documentation that spells it out clear as day for me???

Thanks so much for your help with this--I'm still a bit new at this so sometimes these pictures have to be drawn in Crayon for me!

Re: Samuel / Leroy Bartlett family

HKGuns — 2009-10-20 04:29:50Z

I realize this is old and I'm probably not going to help you very much, however, Leroy is my GG Grandfather, his daughter Carrie married my G Grandfather. I have traced a line way way back through the Nash family (Leroy's wife).

Hi Narelle,

Claude Austin Bartlett was my grandfather. They lived in the Gloucester Taree area as you mention.

My father Edward Claude Bartlett was their first child born 22 Sep 1918.

I am the youngest child in his family. Older siblings in order are Beverly, Claude (Neville) and Graeme.

Interesting reading all the replies. The gold discovery in Copeland is well known in our branch of the family.

Thank you, I knew I had not seen a cemetery there. When I go to the cemeteries in the area I usually travel county 129 (Charity Rd.). My grandparents and father are buried in the Waggnor Cemetery, which is on right on Charity Rd., and my great grand father James E. and the rest of his children are buried in the Booneville Cemetery right off of Charity Rd.

I will look closer the next time I come although I will be coming from the other direction.

Re: Bartlett of Tennessee

nano5050 — 2009-09-23 03:26:22Z

Jim, I finally got Google Earth to load. It is cool. I wonder why it comes up as Petersburg? The Cemetery is in Moore County. The Main Highway says Shelbyville Highway but it is also US Highway 231 I believe it runs from Huntsville to Nashville, it may run futher North and South.

When I go back I am going to look again but I have been up and down Bartlett Hollow Rd. and can't find it I wonder if it is on private property?

Re: Bartlett of Tennessee

nano5050 — 2009-09-21 13:10:10Z

Thanks Jim I will try that. I have been up and down Bartlett Hollow Rd. many times and have not found the cemeteries. The Petersburg area doesn't seem right, but that could be the nearest town. I wish I had an IPhone or a GPS it would make life easier.

Armor A. Bartlett of Portland OR

bunnyhamm1 — 2009-10-08 19:14:50Z

My grandfather's name was Armor Augustus Bartlett. He was married to Mable Lee Mansfield. Together they had two sons, Hap (nickname) and Raymond Harold Bartlett. Armor had three siblings: 'Bud', Albert and Alberta (twins). Armor's parents were Earl and Amy Bartlett.

I am looking for any information on these relatives. I have no DOB's or DOD's. I would love any help out there.

Re: Bartlett of Tennessee

JudySanders13 — 2009-09-23 12:38:33Z

I was just at that cemetery several months ago. Yes, it is on private property, and you wouldn't be able to find it without help. I cannot remember the name of the family, but they were connected with the Bartletts and Warrens. The house would be on the left after turning off Shelbyville Hwy., with an old gate that goes onto an old road across the road from the house. I'm sorry I can't be more specific but you were in the right area..We got lucky and saw someone and asked where the cemetery was...luckily, we were at the exact place we were looking for. I'll try to find out more info for you.

Re: Bartlett of Tennessee

JudySanders13 — 2009-09-21 21:23:27Z

Cora Lou Haynes Bartlett was my great-grandmother. I have no record of either of her parents, but it has been said her parents never married, but that her mother's name was Haynes.
She married William Richard Bartlett in 1903 in Lincoln Co. He was the son of William L. Bartlett and Fannie Farris.
William Richard was born in abt. 1867, but my great grandmother never told his real birth date because he was almost 20 years her senior..She was born in 1887. Who was the Daniel Bartlett who married A. McClaughlin? William R. lived with them for some time. I believe the McClaughlins were cousins of his.

Thank you Jim...this really has helped me.

I knew there were 2 Daniel Bartletts. I had found my Daniel's grave and that of his wife and 1 child a few years ago in the Center Church cemetery in Bedford Co TN..not too far from where I was raised. William Richard Bartlett is buried at Mount Hermon cemetery Bedford Co TN also.

Re: Bartlett of Tennessee

JudySanders13 — 2009-09-21 14:13:54Z

my connection with the Bartletts is Francis Bartlett and his wife Catherine Conwell. It is believed they were the parents of my ggggrandfather William Bartlett. Francis and Catherine were members of the Mount Hermon Baptist Church. I have a book that lists the members and a bit of info about them. I cannot find who Francis' father was, but I believe he was born in KY..around 1813-14.

Trudi_Bartlett — 2009-10-03 17:12:56Z

Hello!

Your 95 year old aunt is a mind of information isn't she!! My Bartlett family don't seem to have talked about the past much and family history has not been passed on by word of mouth much at all. I'm only back as far as 1808 ish, and mine is a Thomas too!! It's so helpful how they named their sons after their fathers....not!! It makes for too many with the same name. A distinct shortage of names in those days obviously!
I can't see that our families tie in at the moment. We think my great-great grandad came up from Dorset which seems to be the home of the Bartletts. We have done some 'actually' record searches but can't find Thomas being born or dying!! But his name is on my great grandfathers marriage certificate so we know the name is right at least, all the rest of the information I have about his potential family is currently circumstantial till I can get to the Dorset records office, or London.
Thanks for the info!
Happy researching!!

Re: Bartlett of Tennessee

jimbartlett — 2009-09-21 19:34:22Z

Judy;

In the 1850 Lincoln Co, TN census, Francis age 36 stated that he was b KY
I've never been able to find him in 1860 census...
In the 1870 Bedford Co, TN census, everyone is listed as b TN, which is almost certainly not true for Francis.
In the 1880 Moore Co, TN census; F B (Francis) states he was born in SC and his parents were b in SC too. Did he remember better in his old age?

I am absolutely convinced that all the BARTLETTs in Bedford, Lincoln and Moore Co, TN are all descendants of William BARTLETT:

In the 1830 Bedford Co, TN census, William is age 40-50 and has 6 sons and 3 daus.
In the 1840 Lincoln Co, TN census, William is age 50-60 and has 3 sons and 2 dau
In 1850 Bedford Co, TN census, William is age 66 and states he was b NC. His wife Winiford is age 50 b SC, or 16 years younger than he. This leads me to believe she is a second wife and probably not the mother of Fransic who was age 36 in 1850.
In 1860 Union Co, IL census, Williams widow, Winifred says she is age 70 and b SC - if so she might be the mother of all of William's children. Winifred is living with her invalid daughter, Sarah, and probably near her son Seaborn who had moved to Union co, IL by 1850.

A descendant of Seaborn and a descendant of James Mansel both have matching DNA, which means Seaborn and James Mansel share a common ancestor - certainly it is William BARTLETT.

An analysis of the census records for William and all of his 10 known children provides a conflicting picture. I appear the elder children may have been born in SC in 1814-1820 time frame, then in KY by 1825 and on into TN by 1826.

I'm still trying to find William in KY and NC. I hope someday, someone (not from this TN family) participates in the DNA project - this will give us another lead on William's roots.

Google Earth is free and easy to use. You can zoom in or out. The cemetery is along side Bartlett Hallow Road which is marked on the Google earth map. Zoom in to see the cemetery; zoom out until you can find a landmark that will tie to a TN roadmap. Good luck and keep us posted.

Martin;

We would very much like to see you participate in the BARTLETT-DNA Project. We have 160 Participants (since Oct 2002); and with matching DNA we've "proved" 18 separate BARTLETT lines in Colonial America, 2 with links to the UK, so far. We would like very much to document the DNA of the Southampton BARTLETTs.

Your DNA results would answer such questions as: Does your line match any of the Colonial American lines? Are there additional BARTLETT lines in the UK? Does the Southampton BARTLETT line descend from some of the earliest inhabitants after the last Ice Age (your result would be DNA Haplogroup R1b); or from some of the Viking invaders (DNA Halplogroup I2b or I1) or from some of the Balkan militia imported by the Romans 43-400AD (DNA Haplogroup E1b1 - the same as mine)?

If you, and any other BARTLETT male from the UK want to join our project...

Use the link below to join the project and purchase your DNA test.
http://www.familytreedna.com/surname_join.asp?code=C45062

Cost: Very reasonable - can't discuss on these boards, but they'll come up on the link above (before you commit), or you can send me an email. Almost all in the BARTLETT-DNA Project have ordered the 25 or 37-marker (Y-DNA25 or Y-DNA37) test, and FTDNA is now selling an upgraded 67-marker, which would be best in the long run.

The TEST: FTDNA sends a kit with plastic sticks, vials, a preaddressed mailer and instructions. Just rub the inside of your cheek with the stick, put the end of the stick in a vial, repeat, and mail it in – no blood, no pain – it’s like brushing your teeth.

You got your DNA from Thomas BARTLETT b 1735; and all of the male BARTLETTs who descend from him will have the same DNA (and the same DNA test result). So in one sense, your DNA result represents your entire BARTLETT family.

BARTLETT-DNA Project Web Site: Our results are posted at:
http://www.familytreedna.com/public/BARTLETTDNA/
be sure to click on “RESULTS” for families and on “Y-RESULTS” for data

My Y-25 results: 13-24-13-10-16-18-11-12-11-13-11-31-16-9-9-11-11-25-14-20-34-14-16-16-18

Be happy to answer any questions - I'd really like to see us identify the DNA of various UK BARTLETT lines.

I couldn't find them online or in the census.

Could you hazard a guess as to the century they lived in: 1700s, 1800s, 1900s - whatever you can provide is better than trying to look at ships passenger lists from the 1600s, or the SSDI 50 years ago.

Note that your William Richard BARTLETT reported his own age fairly accurately in the census:

1910 Bedford Co, TN (Shelbyville); Census [p16A:n/a]: William BARTLETT 40 M1,6 ; Lou 22 M1,6 3/3; Allison 5; Irene 3; William H 4/12; all b TN TN/TN

1920 Moore Co, TN (Dist 9); Census [p1B:25]: W R BARTLETT 52; Cora 32; Aline 15; Irene 12; William 10; Bessie 8; all b TN TN/TN

2 brothers of Francis: James Mansel b 1822, and Seaborn b 1824 (who went to Union Co, IL c 1849] have descendants with matching DNA. Living male BARTLETT descendants of their other brothers (your Francis b 1814; Joel b 1815; Daniel b 1816; and Leacil b 1826) should all have the same DNA test result - if they are indeed all brothers, and sons of William BARTLETT b 1784 NC.

Go to Google Earth (download free); and type in the search box "Warren Cemetery, Petersburg, TN" and you can look at the Warren Cemetery (a little blurry) beside Bartlett Hollow Road - and you can write down the lat-lon for your iPhone or GPS...

There's also a Google Earth link that pops up pushpins for many other, nearby cemeteries - really cool; works on my iPhone - REEEEEEEALY cool.

My father's mother's parents were John and Mary Ann DOUGHTY (I do not know Mary Ann's maiden name). He died Aug 8 1900, she died May 13 1911. They had 4 daughters: Elizabeth Chambers (widow of H G Payne RE died Aug 1906), Maria Thompson, Mary Ann Little & Eliza Jane Hodgson. They lived/died in the NE of England. I wish to discover their ancestry and can anyone help identify the associated family photograph attached? My father's father's family(CHAMBERS) moved from Devon to Andover & Southampton. Thank you.

Debra;

I think Lecil is son of John BARTLETT b 1846 and Mariah WARREN [John being the brother of your ancestor William J BARTLETT b 1844). John b 1846 named Lecil after his uncle of the same name. Look at these census records:

1880 Moore Co, TN (Charity) [p512A:37]: John BARTLETT 26 Farmer; Moriah 26; A E (f) 11; James A 9; W J (m) 6; J M (m) 5; Leslie (m) 1; all b TN TN/TN [I think Leslie is really Lecil]

1900 Moore Co, TN (Dist 8); Census [p2A:24]: John P PARTEN 38; Ary 54; William WARREN 80; Leasel BARTLETT Boarder b Dec 1878, 21 S b TN TN/TN Farmer [Indx=BARTLETS] [I think Leasel is really Lecil]

What do you think?

Jim Bartlett

If you want, I'd be happy to email you my William BARGTLETT b 1784 NC file as a Word document attachment. It tracks his 10 children, including James Mansel and Leacil; and shows the 2 who have matching DNA.

All of the BARTLETTs in Buncombe Co, NC descend from John and Agnes. I'll paste the census extracts below and you can arrange the family, too. You'll note that William was not far from John or Agnes in the census.

The codes in brackets at the end of each record are my coding system for this family, and it shows how they tie into the Mayflower BARTLETTs, thusly:

[F]. Robert BARTLETT 1603 England-1676 MA; m c1629 Mary WARREN (dau of Richard WARREN/Mayflower)

[F1]. Benjamin BARTLETT 1633-c1691; 1m Susannah JENNEY; 2m 1656 Sarah BREWSTER (dau Love /Mayflower)

[F1B]. Samuel BARTLETT 1660-bef 1713 m 1683 Hannah PABODIE

[F1B3]. Samuel BARTLETT 1691 MA-1749/50 MA; m 1725 Hannah CHURCHILL b 1697 MA (dau of John CHURCHILL & Rebecca DELARIO)

F1B3A]. Samuel BARTLETT III b 1726 Plymouth, MA; d 7 Apr 1780 Plymouth, MA; 1m c1754 MA [?NC] Betsy MOORE b c1730; d bef 1764 NC; Samuel 2m 7 Aug 1766 Plymouth, MA Elizabeth JACKSON b c1736 (dau of John JACKSON & Mary RATCLIFFE MOORE)

We now have DNA on file from a descendant of the Buncombe Co, NC BARTLETTs which is a match with several other DNA results from the Mayflower line. Incidentally, this DNA also matches DNA of descendants of Joshua, Joseph and Nathan BARTLETT who were from southern VA/northern NC and went to Overton & White Co, TN sometime after the RevWar. And the DNA matches a descendant of John BARTLETT (m Priscilla) who died 1801 in Green Co, KY.

We believe Joseph, Joshua and Nathan BARTLETT are half-brothers of Peter RENFRO [Joshua BARTLETT and his half brother Peter RENFRO were at Fort Pitt in 1762 getting Joshua's wife, mother and sister-in-law who had been captured by Indians. It was reported that they lived on Blackwater, bedford Co, VA...]

Do you know of any RENFRO connections to this line?

Re: Epp Bartlett & Carrie Bartlett

jimbartlett1 — 2009-09-05 04:05:41Z

ARTucker1,

I have this family as James Everett "Eppie" BARTLETT b 7 Aug 1850 Harrison Co, VA; Shoe Maker; d 1918; m Clara "Carrie" ____ b Sep 1852 VA. They had 7 children, the first of which was Estella "Stella" J BARTLETT b Feb 1879 who married a KELLEY and lived in NY.

This James E was the eldest child of Johnson BARTLETT b 15 Aug 1810 Loudoun Co, VA; d 24 Dec 1884. I suspect he had a first wife, but he married 29 Sep 1849 Loudoun Co, VA Ann Hogue TRACEY b 7 Nov 1812 VA (dau of Everett TRACY & Tamar NICHOLS)

The 1834 Loudoun Co, VA Will of Timoty TAYLOR includes ... grandsons Johnston BARTLETT and Minor BARTLETT (b c1813; d 1850s).

After years of research, I now believe Johnson BARTLETT's father was James BARTLETT b 1786; d 14 Sep 1817 Harrison Co, VA; m 11 Nov 1806 Frederick Co, MD Mary TAYLOR (dau of Timothy TAYLOR). James is in the 1810 Loudoun Co, VA census; and then I've tracked him in the Harrison Co, VA Pers Prop Tax Lists from 1812 t0 1817 - note that he is listed as James BERKLEY in 1813 and 1815-17. He died as a reslut of a duel over protesting the beating of a black boy. His tombstone in the Bridgeport, WV cemetery notes James BERKELEY [extra E] died in the thirty first year of his age and "Underneath this stone doth lie as much bravery as could die when alone did vigour give to as much goodness as could live"

I now believe James BARTLETT/BERKLEY was the son of Benjamin BERKLEY b 3 Oct 1763 Fairfax Co, VA - who descended from the Loudoun Co, VA BERKLEY family that come there in the mid 1700s from Westmoreland Co, VA.

Of special note is that we now have matching DNA from 3 separate lines descending from these BERKLEYs, including one line (not Johnson's) that retains the BARTLETT spelling to this day.

I would very much like to find a living male BARTLETT/BERKLEY from this line for DNA testing, which would confirm (or disprove) the above ancestry for James E BARTLETT.

My own BARTLETT line descends from Thomas BARTLETT c1730-1806, who was born in Richmond Co, VA; lived in Fauquier Co, VA 1768-1785 (the RevWar years); and then took his family to Harrison Co, VA in 1785. I've documented over 10,000 of his descendants. Virtually every BARTLETT in WV descends from this Pioneer - the descendants of Johnson BARTLETT are some of the very few exceptions.

You didn't mention any locations in your post - does this look like the right line to you?

James E BARTLETT's siblings were: Mary E (m Thomas P SMITH); Eliza T m Jos McELINISH); Abia Minor; Virginia A; Martha A; and Joseph - any of their children would refer to James E and Carrie as Uncle and Aunt. I don't know the siblings for Carrie.

Re: George H Bartlett

jimbartlett1 — 2009-10-04 16:06:39Z

CABB1969,
I have compiled BARTLETTs in VA and WV for 35 years, and extracted all of them in census records. I don't have any George BARTLETT born in 1820s, but there are several BARTLETT families in the census before 1850 with sons in that age group, but no names.

For the past 4 years I've been extracting BARTLETTs from the census of other states. I now have VA, WV, MD, DC, NC, SC, GA, TN, KY, AL, AR done for 1790-1880 census, and some other states partially done.

I found the 1900 census you mentioned, but was unable to find George or his his two sons in any other census 1880 or before. Can you tell me which other census records you've found him in, or any other record that gives George's birth year or place. I like the challenge of finding BARTLETT lines in the census, particularly since he may be from VA. My thesis is that all the BARTLETTs in the census records are descendants of Colonial BARTLETTs.

Re: George H Bartlett

jimbartlett1 — 2009-10-05 04:59:14Z

CABB1969;

OK - Your George BARTLETT was older than usual when he married. I think the following census records are your ancestor:

1850 Warren Co, IN Census (Pine Twp) [49:68]: Thomas BARTLETT 59 farmer bVA; Sebina 56 bVA; George 28 VA; Levi 20 VA; Eliza 19 VA; Martha 15 Ind; Elizabeth 11 Ind; Sally BARTLETT 25 VA

1860 Warren Co, IN census: George BARTLETT 38 b VA merchant; in family of Maria JANES 36 widow b VA

If so he is a descendant of the Garner BARTLETT family. Garner was b c1750 in Loudoun Co, VA, was in Berkeley and Frederick Co, VA; and then moved to Montgomery Co, VA where he died in 1811.

One of Garner's sons was:

Thomas BARTLETT b 16 Jun 1790 VA; d 29 Jun 1862 Warren Co, IN (Bartlett Cem, Pine Twp); m 19 Nov 1816 Franklin Co, VA Sabrina HILL b 1 Apr 1792 Frederick Co, VA; d 10 Dec 1866 Warren Co, IN;
DNA-139280

This is the Thomas in the 1850 census above. Note that we now have DNA from this line, and it matches the DNA of the BERKELEY family of Loudoun Co, VA.

If you know of any living male BARTLETT from this line, a DNA test would verify if your George was a descendant of this line which goes back to the 1600s in Westmoreland Co, VA.

If you send me your email, I can send you a lot of info on this family as a Word attachement.

Re: Bartlett of Tennessee

d1tate — 2009-09-13 11:22:13Z

According to the Cemetery Records of Lincoln-Moore Counties Tennessee by Marsh (pub by Marsh Historical Pub:

In Bartlett Hollow, near the Chestnut Ridge Community, south of Richmond is the Warren Cemetery. Here are the Bartlett listings:

Marah Bartlett Oct 7, 1846 / Oct 19, 1888

D.N. Bartlett Dec 29, 1835 / Oct 15, 1899

John Bartlett (no dates)

"Father" Lecil Bartlett 1878 - 1944
"Mother" Frances W. Bartlett 1876 - 1951
"Son" Leonard Bartlett 1904 - 1952

W.M. Burrow 1858 - 1944
&
Malinda Burrow 1879 - 1958

R.C. Burrow Aug 24, 1852 / Jan 15, 1900

There are also Warrens, Williams (including Malinda Burrow's parents, Wagster, Moseley, and Jernigan graves. There is also a note that many graves are unmarked.

My elderly cousin lived in the area at the time and is a descendant of the Williams on her mother's line and the Bartletts on her father's side. She remembers many of these people.

She is the grand daughter of Mary Ann Elizabeth Bartlett who married William David Phelps in 1884. There has been lots of discussion about the moving of the Bartlett families - WD & MAE and their children moved from Tennessee to Texas 11 times. I asked a daughter in law whose family made 4 of those roundtrips "why" and she said she'd never thought about it. Had no idea.

The Lecil Bartlett buried here is remembered by my elderly cousin as Uncle Lecil and Aunt Frances Williams Bartlett. She remembers them living just across the road from her grandparents, Willam David & Mary Ann Elizabeth Bartlett Phelps. She *thinks* that Lecil was Mary Ann Elizabeth's brother but is not sure.

I can find Lecil & Frances Williams Bartlett's family on several censuses after their marriage - they stayed in the area. However I cannot find Lecil as a child on any census.

Does anyone recognize him?

She moved back to Oklahoma when she and my grandpa needed to be closer to family since we'd all moved away from them (not on purpose, believe me). She's been gone since 1982.

Re: George H Bartlett

CABB1969 — 2009-10-05 00:57:10Z

Thanks for your interest, Jim. George H Bartlett appears in the 1870 Federal Census. Name was mispelled as "Bortlett". He was living with several people including his future spouse, Sarah Harmon in Johnson County, Missouri. They were married September 20, 1870 (Missouri Marriage records). George's oldest son, John was born April 1874. There was a younger son, Raymond. Family members who would have known anything about George are long deceased. George is my paternal great-grandfather. The only thing anyone seemed to know was that the family lived in Iowa for a short time. I know George was listed as a foreman in 1870 Census. Hope this little bit helps as George is my brick wall. I have searched for a long, long time and have found virtually nothing.

George H Bartlett

CABB1969 — 2009-10-04 02:44:39Z

I am trying to locate death information for George H Bartlett c. 1822 Virginia to c.1892. Wife, Sarah Harmon (m.1870 Johnson Co Mo), son John William, son George Raymond. Family story indicates George H may have passed in Iowa. Cannot trace family from 1880 to 1900 when Sarah and sons appear in Missouri census.

Looking for Brothel which my great aunt Elizabeth (bet) Bartlett was the Matron. Also looking for any info on the Bartlett family names I have are Doris Winifred, Elizabeth, Sal and Nellie who was evidently adopted. Doris married Ernest Simpson in 1940 and then he went to war supposedly in the airforce, I dont know if he ever returned, she then re married to Edgar Rhodes in 1979, she had children with both marriages. Any info would be very helpful. Thanks Karen

Objet : Re: Bartletts, Southampton Hampshire UK (Joseph and William)

martinjbartlett — 2009-10-03 10:27:39Z

Hellooo - Bartletts of Southampton, eh - well, due to some homework for my son I've now got a "boat load" of em!

Going from earliest I know about till now, births of sons that eventually ended resulted in me:

Thomas Bartlett, born 1735, Southampton
William Bartlett, born 8 Sept 1760, Southampton
Samuel Bartlett, born 1793, Southampton
William Bartlett, born 16 April 1818, Southampton
Edward Bartlett, born 18 March 1857, Southampton
Harry Edward Bartlett, born 25 Feb 1884, Southampton

Harry was the first UK-sticker to leave Southampton (and was a bit of a ladies man!). His first son, John, from his 2nd marriage was born in Brighton, UK in 1932, and I came along in 1960.

Up to Harry's dad is all from word-of-mouth testimony from a great aunt who is 95. I have not checked any of the details independently.

Dunno if any of that helps. I'd like to go BACK from Thomas but Thomas Bartlett seems a bit like "John Smith" in 1730's!
