Mrs. Bartleman has been in failing health for about five years. Her death was attributed to a heart attack. Johanna Anderson was born July 18, 1886 here in Emmet County, the daughter of Carl and Anna Anderson. She received her education in the Emmet County Schools.

She was married on March 14, 1910 to George Bartleman at Watertown, S.D., and for the first nine years of their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Bartleman lived at Montevidio, Minn., where Mr. Bartleman was employed on the Milwaukee Railway.

They then moved to Emmet County and farmed in this area for 45 years, retiring from the farm last September and moving to Estherville because of Mrs. Bartleman’s health.
