BARTMESS FAMILY OF CLEAR LAKE, IA
MARJORIE BEDNAREK 7/12/02
From the Clear Lake, IA newspaper March 25, 1943-BARTMESS, Clara-Died Wed. Burial in the Clear Lake Cemetery. She was born on a farm south of Clear Lake, June 17, 1874, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Gardner. She is the last of her immediate family. She was married June 18, 1894 to John Bertram Bartmess, at Clear Lake. Her husband preceded her in death Dec 3, 1936. To them were born 5 children, FLOYD; MRS. FRANK SHAFFER, AND MRES HAZEL CHERRY AND MRS. GLENN MILLER. One daughter died n infancy. (I now have origins of this Gardner Family of Clear Lake back to Otsego Co. NY). Wish contact with anyone connecting. Thanks, Marjorie
