He also worked as a farmer, hunter, trapper, self-taught surveyor, and politician. Bartholomew County, Indiana and the Bartholomew Trail were named after him. ==Family life== Joseph Bartholomew was born in New Jersey, but his family moved around the time of his father's death to Laurel Hill, Pennsylvania when he was two years old. Bartholomew married Christiana Pickenpaugh in 1788 and they moved to Northern Kentucky near present-day Louisville with his mother. In 1800 he moved his family into the newly created Indiana Territory in an area known as Clark's Grant near the town of Charlestown in Southern Indiana. In 1809, his wife died giving birth to their tenth child. In June 1811, Bartholomew married Elizabeth McNaught. She died in 1824 from injuries sustained after being thrown from a horse. Joseph never remarried. The General's descendants are now living throughout the United States. His daughter Martha and several of his grandchildren were some of the earliest converts to Mormonism and several were baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.〔ABC/SBC Family Foundation (General Joseph Bartholomew )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Bartholomew (Major General)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
