Census Records » Slide Show		1850 US Census (Des Moines, Polk, Iowa)
		1870 US Census (Marion, Jasper, Missouri)
		1880 US Census (Carthage, Jasper, Missouri) Notes: Three doors up from Peter is a Charles L. (Lamb) Bartlett (1832-1897) and his family (Charles moved to Carthage in 1875). Is this just a coincidence or is Charles related to the Charles F. Bartlett that marries Peter's daughter, Carrie, a few years later in 1886? This might explain how Charles F. Bartlett (from NY) ended up marrying someone in Missouri.
