• Notes

  Lawrence Shuler Bartlett was born in Madison County, N.Y. and went west to Chatauqua County with his brothers and father and several others who migrated. Among this number were Ira Bartlett and Daniel Lombard and his sister Margaret. After his marriage Shuler moved to Ellington and then to Waterboro on the Conewanga River, here for a number of years he owned the hotel. In 1805, Dr. Thomas Kennedy of Meadville, built the first saw-mill, he bought three thousand acres of pine, cut the timber and floated the boards for rafting down the Conawanga, from Kennedy, Poland and Jamestown were piled ten to twenty feet high in 12 by 16 feet squares, each layer crossing the preceding layer. There was cherry and oak as well as some other varieties. The mill purchased logs of the farmers by the hundred logs, 200 feet to the log was the estimated quantity. Randolph logs were floated down the Little Conawanga. Shuler Bartlett helped run these rafts from the Conawanga to St. Louis, returning to Chicago by foot and from there by boat, sailing vessels, to Buffalo or Detroit. Chicago was then but a fishing village. Later Shular moved to Michigan and operated in pine timber lands, manufactured shingles, had several farms and city properties and became "well to do".
