| Title, Manuscript | [Ship's log - Carl Friedrich Bartz] |
| Abstract | Ship's log maintained by Carl Friedrich Bartz (1820-1899), who left Pomerania (vicinity of Drosedow) to become a sailor in approximately 1834. He sailed for about 20 years, and arrived in the United States in 1854. Lived in Watertown, Wisconsin and Prairie City, Missouri. Several letters, written by family members, that refer to the ship's log are included. One includes a photocopy of a handwritten poem in German, thought to have been written by Carl Bartz. Also included are photocopies from "The Lineage of Ludwig and Louise Mielke" by Norbert Manthe (Wauwatosa, WI 1981) and "From Wild Root" by Stella Pauline Bartz Sheddrick (San Antonio, TX: Pipecreek Publications, 1986), that each offer genealogical information on the Bartz family. |
