Biography

Obituary printed in the newspaper at the time.

- In the death of Noah Bartholomew, which occurred on Sunday, February 9th, 1890, Marshall County loses another of her oldest settlers. The deceased came to this county from Chautauqua County, N.Y., about 1836, being then a young man, and uniting his means with the late Barney Cory, a quarter section of land was purchased in Greene Township and held jointly by the two until the former 's death. Mr. Bartholomew remained single until he was nearly 40 years of age, and continue to make his home with Mr. Cory until the former's death. In 1863 he married the widow of the late Ransom Wiser, who survives him. Two children, a son and a daughter, were born to them, the son meeting with an accidental death about eight years ago. The deceased was 75 years of age, and had lived for fifty years on the farm where he died, four and a half miles west of Argos. He was not a professor of religion, but his neighbors and friends bear testimony to the fact that a more honest, upright and honorable man was not known in this vicinity. He had been sorely afflicted for a long time previous to his death, and for the last four years had been totally blind. The funeral services were held Tuesday, at Jordan Church, and a large circle of friends by their presence attested the respect in which he was held. The services were conducted by Rev. A.D. Berry.
