I believe the male and female, both age 15-19 yo, are siblings Mary and Nathan III. Mary's age is perfect, Nathan's is off by one year. Both were orphans and neither had yet married in 1840. Simeon 'died in childhood' according to Bartlett. By assuming he's already dead it's a perfect match.7

She perhaps the widow of Alben Sr.10

Daughter Cora's death certificate & son John's funeral record provide state only; the 1880, '70 & '60 censuses confirm ca. year and state. Year only per his headstone. Daughter Margaret's death certificate says he was born at Martha's Vineyard.7,5,8,9,1,2
Census1820	Dwight is probably one of the two males under age 10 listed in the household of his father, Amos Aaron Bartlett, in the 1820 Federal Census of Conway, Franklin Co., Massachusetts.10

Census1870	Dwight and Clarissa appeared on the 1870 Federal Census of Delhi Twp., Hamilton Co., Ohio, enumerated 20 June 1870, as 54 yo farmer David & 32 yo Clarra Bartlet (indexed Bartles).

Burial*	He was buried at Shiloh United Methodist Church Cemetery in Delhi Hills, Hamilton Co., Ohio. Find A Grave provides headstone photo.9,20
BioNote*	Biography Note of circa 1910: We have a photograph of the four children in Turlock, California, taken sometime in the early 1900s. John, Charles and Margaret are all mentioned in Cora's obituary of March 1937. It was this photo and knowing that John and Charley had lived in Turlock that lead to the discovery of John's gravestone and finding the name of their mother, Clarissa on John's funeral record. Up until this time all we knew of Cora's parents was that she was the daughter of "Dwight Bartlett of Cincinnati". Once able to identify which of the several Dwight Bartletts living in Ohio in the 1800s was our ancestor (the one who married Clarissa Pike Vincent) it proved simple to trace our ancestry in this line back five additional generations.

BioNote*	Biography Note of 6 March 1937: Cora's obituary in the Mulvane News: OBITUARY, MRS. N. H. BARTLETT. Cora Ann Bartlett was born on August 1, 1857 four miles west of Cincinnati, Ohio and departed this life at the home of her son, Rev. Ernest D. Bartlett at Iuka, Kansas on Saturday morning, March 6, 1937, at the age of 79 years, seven months and five days. She grew to womanhood in the family home near Cincinnati, finishing the Common school and for some years teaching in the same school in which she had been a scholar. After a few years she entered the Lebanon Normal School at Lebanon, Ohio, and here she became acquainted with Nathan Herbert Bartlett of Mt. Gilead, Ohio. They were united in marriage on Wednesday, August 6, 1884 at Cincinnati by Rev. John J. Reed of St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church. To this union were born three children; two sons and one daughter, all of whom survive her. Her husband preceded her in death on November 11, 1927 at Wesley Hospital, Wichita, Kansas, since which time she has made her home with her children, and for a time with her brothers in California. Early in life Mrs. Bartlett gave her heart to Christ and united with the Methodist Episcopal Church in her home community. She was deeply impressed as a young woman by a message on the text, "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." Proverbs 4:23. Throughout her life she kept this passage in mind as one of her favorite passages and in her declining years she often spoke of it, and of the influence it had upon her life. In the year 1901 she and her husband came with their children to Kansas moving to Winfield and later to Mulvane, Kansas in 1920. Here they lived until her husband's death. She was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church at Iuka, and faithful to the services as she had opportunity to attend. She was a loving mother, sacrificing for her home and her children, a loyal friend and neighbor, and was loved and respected by all who knew her. She leaves to mourn her passing her three children: Mrs. H.G.Woods of Lomita, California; Oscar H. Bartlett, of Collinsville, Oklahoma; Rev. Ernest D. Bartlett, of Iuka, and one sister and two brothers: Mrs. Margaret E. Allen, of Huntington Park, California; John L. Bartlett and Chas. F. Bartlett of Delhi, California, seven grandchildren and other relatives and a host of friends. The funeral services were held in Calbeck-Sappington Mortuary, Pratt, Rev. P.D.Womeldorf, Dist. Supt, of Dodge City District and the Rev. W.H.Dellinger, pastor at Pratt conducted the service. Immediately after the service Mrs. Bartlett was brought to Mulvane and a short service W.M.Austin. Two musical numbers were rendered by Mrs. Ernest Thompson, Mrs. E.P.Mauk, Mrs. Alley and Mrs. McBee. Lowell Mason, E.W.Throckmorton, Ed Kimble, George Drake, George Whitted and B.C.Minnich acted as pall bearers, and she was laid to rest by the side of her husband in the Mulvane cemetery." Cora took care of Clara Ann for a while after Ervie Joe's death.2

Birth*	John, son of Dwight David Bartlett and Clarissa Pike Vincent, was born between November 1865 and 1867 in Ohio. John's funeral record (informant was his brother Charles) & headstone both say birthyear was 1867; the 1900 census shows date Nov 1865. Both the funeral record and the headstone are likely informed by Charles. I'm inclined to think he had forgotten John's birthday. John's CA Death Index entry says 01 Jan 1867 - another instance of info likely from Charles. The census record more closely supports an 1865 year.      Althoff mistakenly gives brother Charles's birthdate as John's.2,7,8,9,10,11
