Biography

History of Mc Donough County, Illinois, published 1885 by the Continental Historical Company, Springfield, Illinois. It has 1158 pages. In possession of Lois E. Dezutti, 3333 Danaha St., Torrance, Cal. Chapter 39, Walnut Grove Township, page 1015 -

"The pioneer settler of Walnut Township was Isaace Bartlett, who came from the state of Tennessee in the fall of 1830, settling on section 34. After eresting a cabin, he left his father and mother there and went over to the vicintiy of Spring Creek in Emmet Township, to work at breaking prairie. While here at work the memorable deep snow came and it was many days of unsuccessful attempts before he succeded in getting back to his aged parents, who he waa aware, must be in desittiue circumstances. He found them in a half starved and frozen condition with nothing to eat and but little fuel to protect them in their rudely constructed habitation from the bitter blasts of one o f the worst windrers in the histoyr of Mc Donough County. The family cow, which had died of exposure and starvation was all that was left to eat and upon the arrival of the son who had been several days in coming from Spring Creek settlement with the three yoke of oxen, a sled and provisions, he found the old gentleman at work removing the hide from the carcass of the dead cow, preparatory to getting something to appease their hunger. The old folks partook of the provisions brought by the son, who soon afterward removed them to where he was stopping on Spring Creek."
