    Notes 
    • 1850 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Jul 27 1850:
      Joshua Bartlett, 59, b. Va, farmer, value of real estate $800; Matilda, 54, b. Ireland; Mortimore, 18, b. Va, farmer.

      1860 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Jul 19 1860:
      Joshua Bartlett, 69, farmer, value of real estate $500, value of personal estate $250; Matilda, 63; Susan C. Lawson, 13; Florida Lawson, 9.
      (NOTE: Susan C. Lawson was the daughter of Thomas R. Lawson & Emeline Rachel Bartlett. She married Henry B. Collins in 1867 and died the following year.)
      The next enumerated household was:
      Elizabeth Powell, 40, farmer, value of real estate $400, value of personal estate $160; Isaac Powell, 18; Benjamin Powell, 16; Francis Powell (female), 14; James Powell, 10; Emeline Powell, 8.
      (NOTE: This census entry is ambiguous and could be interpreted to indicate that the Powells were members of the same household as Joshua Bartlett and the others. This is believed not to have been the case. Elizabeth Powell was Eliza Ann Coplin, widow of Stephen Powell. She remarried Michael Floyd in 1862.)
