INDEX

[5399] Rev. William Toy Bartle is said to have been born in Mullica Hill, Gloucester, New Jersey. His boyhood and youth, till was about seventeen years of age, were spent in Philadelphia area. He pursued an academic course of study at Cincinnati, Ohio, and for one year was Missionary Teacher among the Choctaw Indians. He was a graduate of Knox College, Galesburg, Illinois, class of 1849, and taught the first public or common school of Greene County, Illinois, at Carrollton, in 1851.

His son, Henry Hart Bartle, wrote a letter to President Thomas McClelland of Knox College on Sept 20th, 1913. In it, he reports,

"My father graduated from Knox College, June 17, 1849. Leaving college he went to Carrolton Green Country. He was doing miissionary work during this time. He was licensed to preach by the Alton Presbytery on April 15th 1852. Was ordained by the same Presbytery at the Sept. session the same year."

He married Mary Helen Wilcox in 1851. (Also listed as being married in Knox County, Illinois, or Greene County). Helen was the daughter of Henry Wilcox; William suffered the loss of his 20 year-old wife in 1853. She left him a daughter, Blanche.

"In 1854, William remarried to Elizabeth Granger Sanburn. Turning his attention to the gospel ministry, he was ordained by the Alton Presbytery, October, 1852. Some ten years of ministerial life were passed in Illinois, and a like period in Michigan, where he was one year County Superintendent of Common schools. He was also some three years stated supply [pastor] at Plattsmouth, Nebraska. In May, 1869, he purchased 120 acres on section 17, Douglas Township, Iowa and began improvements in June 1871. In the spring of 1875, he erected a dwelling and moved his family on his land, where he now resides."

(Sketches, Map and Directory of Union County, Iowa. Illustrated 1876 - Publisher C.J. Colby, Creston, Iowa 1876, pg 66).

Under the direction of the Rev, J. W. Pickett, one of the Home Missionary Superintendents of Iowa, and after being supplied for some time by the Rev. Hunter (who died in 1872), was presided over by the Rev. E. G. Carpenter, who continued as its minister for two or three years, being succeeded by the Rev. Chas. Little, who after officiating for nine months was followed by the Rev. W. T. Bartle, who supplied with much acceptance until 1876, when the Rev, C. O. Parmenter took charge of the church. In 1875, the wants of the Society demanded a house, which was built, paid for and dedicated free of debt, at a cost of $2,200. The present membership is 50. Sunday School membership, 85."

(Sketches, Map and Directory of Union County, Iowa. Illustrated 1876 - Publisher C.J. Colby, Creston, Iowa 1876, Creston, Iowa, 1876, pg 85)

The Knox County Marriage Book has William Bartle's name followed by the name Bartte in parentheses.

The Civil War unit 12th Illinois Cavalry, Company F was recruited from Carrollton, Illinois.

There are four cemetaries in the Creston, Iowa area: Carrollton Cemetery; Carrollton City Cemetery; City Cemetery; and White Hall Cemetery (in White Hall).

The 1790 Census shows a William Bartle of Lower Dublin, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with 2 free white males 16+ years of age, 3 while males under 16, and 3 white females including heads of families. (Roll: M637_9, Page: 197)

A diary found among the papers of Anne "Betty" Phelps records in fine penmanship the deaths of these previously unknown individuals:

1834 August My mother
1890 August 5 Geo Bartle
1892 September 1 E. G. Bartle

On the page for November 3, the same hand has written:

1824 My Brother Geo Born.

In what appears to be another hand, someone has written, this time in pencil:

1880 Wm Sanborn age 77
1915 Mch 15 Aunt Kate [Sanborn age] " 56

If the owner has a brother named "Geo. Bartle," then the owner's given surname must also be "Bartle". Furthermore, the individual must be a grandparent to all of the children listed, which places him or her in one of eight possible locations on the family tree. Only one of those eight could have the birth surname of Bartle. Given the above evidence and the time period in which the writing changed from one individual to another, the initial owner appears to be the Rev. William Toy Bartle himself. So his mother died when he was twelve years old. Along with William's father, she was an immigrant from Prussia.

The following family may be related to our family:

The 1840 Census for Philadelphia shows a William Bartle with 2 males 15-20, a male 40-50, two females 15-20, and a female 40-50 years old in Kensington, Ward 1, Roll M432_824, page 268.

Claremont, Cal.

From the Courier, Claremont, California, about December 26, 1929:

Henry Hart Bartle, 71, for many years a respected and beloved citizen of Claremont on Friday of last week passed from this life. Mr. Bartle, a pioneer businessman of the community, had lived here for 18 years and had by his kindness of heart and friendly manner made all admire and love him.

Funeral services were held in Pomona Monday afternoon, with Rev. A. D. Stauffacher in charge of the service. Burial was on the Oak Park cemetery.

Mr. Bartle was born in Chicago, Illinois, on August 27, 1858. His father went out into the new and rough land of Oklahoma to do work among the Indians. He proved to be not strong enough physically for the demands made upon his strength and at the time of H. H. Bartle's birth, be had a pastorate in Chicago

Boyhood Days in Mid-west

Mr. Bartle spent his early boy-hood days in Illinois and Michigan. He was the fourth in a family of eight children and often talked of the happy group they made around the table, of the long line in the family pew, or the circle at family worship. His parents always had had a home with an acre or more of ground to give these growing children space and occupation and if he was the most restless and most likely by initiate mischief, it is probable that he was also the one who took the largest share of home tasks and duties. He developed a regard for promptness and thoroughness that all through his life for his father's discipline, though not unkindly, was somewhat stern and rigid.

His early teen years and high school days were spent in Plattsmouth, Nebraska where he began to form the friendship of older people whom he revered all through life.

When he was a. 17 years old when his father took over a 40-acre farm on the edge of town in Creston, Iowa, continuing in the ministry also. It was here he met his wife, who with has father had moved from Galesburg, Illinois. Mr. Bartle was devoted to her with a deep and reverent love. Commenting on this relationship, Rev Stauffacher said, "To him she was the rarest spirit that ever lived." Before they were married they both moved out to the prairies of Nebraska, where she taught a year previous to their marriage.

College Trustee

Mr. Bartle's father was or trustee of Tabor college and although he wished his son would attend college and train his voice he did not, to his lasting regret Mr. Bartle enjoyed working with his hands, and it was is Nebraska that he learned the trade of blacksmithing. Later they moved to Kansas City, where he went into the offices of the freight department of it Burlington railroad, two of his brothers being railroad men.

Upon the illness of his oddest daughter and the necessity for her to come to California for her health, Mr. Bartle moved his family his to the foothills near Redlands. It seemed impossible at the time for him to go into the city where he was to have been engaged in railroad work, so once again he turned to the trade of his young manhood, and in it he continued, doing less and less of manual work and depending more and more on the selling of implements and garden tools.

During the time that he was in Mentone, near Redlands, he gave freely to the life of the church and community in music and social contacts. He was the music for the little mission church, he sang for all social functions as he had when he was a young man. With his wife or by himself, he called on those who were ill or shut in and always they would urge him to sing for them.

Eighteen years ago he years ago he came to Claremont where be established his business. Throughout this time his wise counsel and assistance has helped in the development of this community.

Man of Marked Ability

Of him one of his a friends in Claremont has written:

"He was a man of marked ability, a great reader, a thinker, and with a sense of humor that ran through his conversation he made those happy who talked with him. By untiring industry and close attention to business he set an example to any who would succeed. His sterling honesty and upright conduct marked with broad sympathies for all good causes made him a helpful man to the community. We shall miss his face and voice but memory will carry them for many years to come."

"In the loss of his wife, Mr. Bartle was deeply affected and always since her death his friends could notice a tone of sadness which filled his life. "His home was happy and in the love and care of his daughter, Helen, were centered all his affections.

"From his good life, we who remain take hope and courage."

His surviving relatives are one son, W. Hart Bartle, Pomona and one daughter, Miss Helen S. Bartle at home. There are three grandchildren; two sisters, Mrs. John Christiansen, New Haven, Connecticut, and Mrs. Thomas C. Shaw, Cleveland, Ohio, and one brother, George J. Bartle, Creston, Iowa.

[4693] There is a telegram from a Kiddoo telling Harold B. Phelps and Betty Christy that Betty's brother had been killed in an accident in Riverside, California. All of her brothers -- William, Howard, Henry, and George -- worked for the railroads at various times.

[156] Based on conversations with Annie Christy Phelps, her daugher-in-law, and on notes written by H. B.
Phelps Sr., her son.

[6427] George Jennings Bartle was born July 23, 1867 in Clinton, Michigan, he died October 29, 1960 at Creston, Iowa and is interred at Maple Hill Cemetery, Cromwell, Iowa. He was the last son of the Reverand William Toy Bartle and Elizabeth (Granger) Bartle.

His boyhood was spent in Michigan until he was eight years of age, he then came with his parents to a farm located on section 17, Douglas Township, Union county, Iowa, near Cromwell. He was educated at Cromwell High School and graduated in 1886. The following two years were spent as a circuit teacher in the rural schools in Union county. He moved to Saint Joseph, Missouri in 1888 where he worked for the Steele and Walker Wholesale Grocery until 1896.

He married June 20, 1893 to Elizabeth Haver Munch at Saint Joseph, Elizabeth a daughter of David and Margaret (Failor) Munch. She was born in Lima, Allen county, Ohio on July 18, 1873, she died on May 18, 1942 at Creston, Iowa and is buried beside her husband at Maple Hill Cemetery.
