Bartholome, Nicholas, (page 1111), farmer, Chester, is a native of 
Luxemburg, born in Colbach, in March, 1834. All his life has been passed 
on a farm. When eleven years old he went to France, and stayed there two 
and one-half years, and became master of the French tongue as well as his 
native one. In 1854 he came to Utica, New York, and was employed as a farm 
and railroad laborer. In 1866 he went back to Europe, and came to 
Minnesota next year. He now has one hundred acres of land on section 5, 
where he has dwelt for eleven years. He was married, February 10, 1873, to 
Catharine Jacobs, who was born in Befort, Luxemburg. Mr. Bartholome has 
always been a democrat. Himself and family are members of Belle Chester
