On July 16th 1869, he married Sophia Schlueter and emigrated to Canada in the same year, settling in the vicinity of Hespeler and a short time later moving to lot 5, 1st concession, Puslinch, where he farmed successfully until his retirement a number of years ago. Mr. Bartels was highly thought of in the community where he resided so long. Upright and honest in all his dealings, a regular attendant of the Hespeler Lutheran Church, of which he was a life-long member. Independent in politics, voting Conservative chiefly but many times Liberal according to the choice of candidates. A good neighbour in the truest sense of the word, he will long be kindly remembered.

Pallbearers: his sons, Charles and Fred; his sons-in-law, Herman Prestien and Archie McKellar; and his nephews, Fred and Joseph Bartels. The many friends, who gathered to follow his body to its last resting place, attested to the respect and esteem in which he was held. Besides his aged widow, he is survived by a family of two daughters and two sons, Charles in Hespeler; Frederick on the homestead; Mrs. Herman Prestien and Mrs. Archie McKellar; two brothers, Charles in Clearview and William of Preston.
