(Click on
the photo to enlarge it)
The Bartnik families owned properties in Holton Township (Marathon Co.),
I think mostly north of County A -- in the NE corner of "Township 29
North Range 2 East" as shown on Plat maps. Four of the sons of Andreas
& Susanna Bartnik moved to Oregon, and looking at the dates I
have relating to that I would guess that this photo was taken about
1908. My Great-grandfather John
Schwermer is on the right, holding the lead to his horses, Prince and
Queen. His father-in-law and brother-in-law (Joseph and Frank Hollmann)
are standing behind him, along with Jake Bartnik. Paul Bartnik, who
married Frances Hollmann, is on the far left. Frank Fleckenstein is
also in the photo (4th from the left?) -- his sister, Christina, married
Frank Hollmann.
