Bertram/Bartram & Calkins- VT & IL
I am working with Linda Stegall to piece these families together. We have found several ways in which the Calkins/Caulkins and Bartrams/Bartrum, Bartrem, Bertram, Bartrim etc. are connected. Both lines were in VT and IL and intermarried.
Orange BARTRAM and 2/w Sarah Langston have William Calkins age 10 yr born IL living with them on the 1880 Mason Co, IL census. His brother and sister, Henry and Gertrude were placed with other famiies by their father, James Calkins. William married Osa Bartram, daughter of Ira Bartram and granddaughter of Orange Bartram and 1/w Maria Flood. James Calkins cousin, Margaret Rogers married Orange Bartram's older son, George Bartram.
Anyone else working on these families??
