R. C. (HATTIE EATON) ZARTMAN (1862-1930) Wifo of the F11mily Historiun PREFACE Family history like the arbor vitae begins with a seed which germinates, grows, spreads and ~ars fruit~ The vast Zartman family in this western hemisphere began with a husband, wife and a son aged five years. That genesis in America was in the year 1728 in Warwick Township, Lancaster County, Pennsyl­ vania. From there it grew and spread UJ'.\til now descendants are in at leastj'orty states, Canada, Alaska, Mexico, Panama, Hawaii, Philippine Islands, and Africa. The printed history of our numerous family also had a genesis. There was a time as late as 1907 when like most families we had no printed history. There were some traditions. As late as 1908 no one knew who our progenitor was nor where he had come from. How did we ever get a written and printed history? The answer is interesting. Isaac Zartman, the father of the author of this book, somehow learned of Franz Zartman, of Frankfurt, Germany, and exchanged German letters with him. He also corresponded with Samuel Zartman of Jamestown, Ohio, with Solomon B. Zartman of York County, Pennsylvania, with John Jacob Zartman of Dornsife, Pennsylvania, and with other Zart­ mans. His search was for information about his kin. It is a deep regret that be did not live to see and read a printed Zartman history. In the autumn of 1894 Rev. Dr. John J. Kline of Pottstown, Pennsylvania, came to Philadelphia and introduced hims~lf to the writer, who up to that time had not known this divine. Dr. Kline had Zartman blood through his mother, Catharine Zart­ man, who married Jacob E. Kline. He thought there should be a Zartman family history, and considered me the suitable person to compile such a work. I suggested that he write such a history, but be said that the writer of such a book should bear the name of Zartman. The suggestion was a seed, that did not however germinate at once. In November of 1907 my two oldest sisters, Leah Mechling and Sarah Swinehart, came from Ohio to visit us in Philadelphia. They suggested that the Zartman relatives be invited t-0 a general Reunion in Ohio the following summer, and they also asked me, their "little brother," to prepare and read f.\t that reunion a paper VIll TBE ZARTMAN FAllILY on the Zartman family in this country. These two suggestions were carried out and in August of 1908 the first Zartman Reunion was held. The fruits of that reunion were: the organization of the Zartman Association of America, and the election of a. family historian who was requesterl to publish a. history in book form. This History was printed in 1909, and in 1935 the Association requested the historian to revise and enlarge it. Needless to say our family had increased and multiplied as the years went on. And it continues to change daily. When I drew the dead line on accepting material for this book, I did so reluctantly for week by week brought additional material which it grieved me not to include. Some omissions and mistakes there are bound to be in a work of this nature. For them we beg your indulgence. Some interesting but lengthy data. has boo to be cut to a. bare state­ ment. This volume has been compiled when adverse circum­ stances were many and great and at times almost insurmountable. A Grecian sculptor worked many years 011 the image of a man. A friend who had waited for the finished product said, "It seems to me that you are taking a. long time to finish that sculpture." The artist replied, "That is true, but I am making it to last for all time." This history has been years in the making, but it is to serve for all time. Many and most sin,cere thanks to every one who in any wise has contributed to the production of this book. THE AUTHOR TABLE OF CONTENTS Page List of Illustrations ........•....• : . • .

With eyes wide with astonishment she looked into my face and said, "Why, my dear, you don't think I am going to die, do you?" How sad that we wait until death closes the ears and seals the eyes to speak our love and appreciation! Words could not begin to tell the depth of my feeling of love for my beloved "Uncle Rufus." From my babyhood on he has been a constant visitor in our home, and since my father went home there has been no difference. Many of my very earliest memories are connected with him, for did he not woo and win the lovely young woman who played the organ in my father's first Sunday School? Visits to Perry County were never fully happy ones unless he, too, was there; his advice and comforting companionship have been to our family a source of delight and joy. Only to one who is interested in the study of genealogy, whether in one's own or the intricate problems connected with finding the complete data for the family tree of which a friend is a member­ only such a person can appreciate what this valuable family history means. More and more are people searching for their several lines of ancestry, and it has become an art to be able to untangle the mysteries of the past. Many almost impossible­ to-solve
