Hello. My name is Mary Ann Bartlett and I live in the Bell County side of
Bartlett, TX. The street behind me is Williamson Co. I am interested in
documenting my BARTLETT ancestors here in Bell Co. and Wmson Co. I also do
look-ups for people out of the county and state. I am talking to a lady
that supervises some part of the TEXAS page on RootsWeb in hopes that I can
help transcribe some documents to be put online.

My BARTLETTs came from VA>KY>MO>TX. My great grandparents arrived in Bell
Co. in 1878. His name was John Thomas BARTLETT and wife, Mary Ann (BELL)
Bartlett. A "couzin", E.A. Lemmer, compiled and edited the HISTORY OF BELL
COUNTY for the Bell Co. Historical Society..or maybe it was the
Genealogical Society. He also did a huge 3-volume work on Bartlett.

I am on crutches on good days and in my wheelchair on other days. I am a
retired teacher...spent my last five years guiding the gifted and talented
students at Jarrell, TX. Genealogy brings history to life for me...it is a
challenge, too....an exercise in problem solving.

Thanks for including me...
Ann

Howdy All!
At latest count, there were some 26 -L list members and about 13 -D
TXBELL List members. (Some duplicates where someone is subscribed to
both lists).

As the TXBELL Listowner, I'd like to ask you to tell your other list
members what your interest is in Bell County, and if it's primarily
historical, genealogical, or both. I'd also like to know at least what
state or country you're from.
