Biography

According to cousin Wilda's research Ira Stearns Hartley was born March 8, 1889 at Blackfoot, Idaho to Hyrum Hartley and Wealtha Ann (Hatch) Hartley.

According to several other sites I found information on, he was born 10 March 1890 in Rockland, Oneida, Idaho....

Ira was married to Mary (Jordan) and they lived in Cardston, Alberta, Canada for several years. The first 4 of their 5 children were born in Canada.

They moved to Oregon prior to Lenore's birth.

Ira died on his daughter's Iris's 8th birthday November 18, 1924, from injuries sustained from a truck backing over him at work near LaGrande, Oregon.

Ira was 6'4".

1/20/2016 Note of interest: What I located on www.familysearch.org lists the birthdate for Ira Stearns Hartley as March 10, 1890 in Rockland, Oneida County, Idaho, but in my husband's cousin's research it is listed as March 8, 1889 in Blackfoot, Idaho. This needs to be explored and cleared up.

CITING THIS RECORD

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, "Ancestral File," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/2:1:M7FY-THR : accessed 2016-09-11), entry for Ira Stearns HARTLEY.


CITING THIS RECORD - 1900

"United States Census, 1900," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MM5T-HSL : accessed 16 March 2016), Ira S Hartley in household of Hyrum Hartley, Rockland, American Falls Precincts, Oneida, Idaho, United States; citing sheet 1A, family 3, NARA microfilm publication T623 (Washington, D.C.: National Archives and Records Administration, n.d.); FHL microfilm 1,240,234.

Those listed in this census record: Hyrum Hartley Head M 54 England; Weltha A Hartley Wife F 42 Utah; June A Hartley Daughter F 24 Utah; Charles S Hartley Son M 20 Utah; Joshua F Hartley Son M 18 Utah; Gilbert S Hartley Son M 15 Idaho; Weltha E Hartley Daughter F 13 Idaho; (aka Eliza) Ira S Hartley Son M 10 Idaho; Alice L Hartley Daughter F 2 Idaho.

The 1900 Census lists Ira's birth month and year as March 1890. (A family source lists his middle name as Starnes. At this juncture I believe it is likely that Stearns is the correct spelling. That is corroborated by the historical use of Stearns as a family name that was passed down.)


"Canada Census - 1906"

database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KHVH-NJF : accessed 16 March 2016), Ira S Hartly in household of Gilbert S Hartly, 5, Alberta, Alberta, Canada; Public Archives, Ottawa, Ontario.

Gilbert was his brother. Those listed in the house are: Gilbert (20), W Eliza (18), Ira S (16), Alice L (7), and William H (5). [A different document cites William as a nephew.]


CITING THIS RECORD - 1911

"Recensement du Canada de 1911," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QV9P-KH4M : accessed 16 March 2016), Ira Normes Hurtley in entry for Hyrum Hurtley, 1911; citing Census, Medicine Hat Sub-Districts 1-11, Alberta, Canada, Library and Archives of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario; FHL microfilm 2,417,653.

They totally annihilated the spelling of the name - - but this is their family. Ira Normes is Ira Stearns, and the surname is Hartley not Hurtley.

CITING THIS RECORD - 1916

"Canada Census, 1916," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KM5K-R7Q : accessed 1 March 2016), Ira Hartley, Alberta, Canada; citing p. 15, line 39; Library and Archives Canada, Ottawa, Ontario; FHL microfilm 2,434,967.
