You have probably already found this, but some of their info is on find a grave.They are the ones in the New York cemeteries. I'm a Bartschi too, but I don't think we are the same line unless if it goes way back.

Re: Bartschi: Lois,Wilford, Karl and Bertha Bartschi

ashworthj_1 — 2009-08-24 18:12:37Z

Wilford is my grandpa's brother. We have some info on Bartschi and a little on the Wyler lines. We are just beginning to dig in again. I knew wilford and Lois as a little girl and my mom knew them better than me.

JaniceWaldemarBaertschy — 2009-07-31 16:41:38Z

I am looking for parentage info on ULRICH BARTSCHI born Oct. 4, 1824 in Trachselwald, (Lutzelfluh) Bern, Switzerland.

The only info I have on him is that his mother died when he was very young so he lived with his married sister, but left home at an early age. He then emigrated to Chicago, U.S. (and had his house burn down in the Great Chicago Fire)

Ulrich is the GG-Grandfather of my husband, and this line in the U.S. spells it Baertschy

Any help with this brick wall would be greatly appreciated!

Re: BARTSCHI/BAERTSCHI Surname

selaseven — 2008-01-09 19:46:03Z

The Bärtschi family originates from Adelboden (Bernese Oberland, Canton Bern). This Swiss name derives from the German name Berchtold. There seems to be a connection with the town of Weesen on the Walensee (a small lake near the end of Lake Zürich where early Bärtschis were located in medieval
times.

Margaretta and Otto Bartschinger/Bertschinger

IBriles — 2006-08-31 12:55:17Z

I am looking for a family connection with this family. Was this Bartschi shortened at any time from Bartschinger, and is Bartschi family from Germany? Margaretta is buried in a plot shared by some of my PHY family, purchased by their oldest daughters family. Phy is our brick wall family, so any information on a connection is deeply appeciated.

cbartschi — 2003-04-14 01:44:26Z

My grandfather's name was Fritz Bartschi- His father's name was Christian Bartschi. He had brothers named Jakob and Hans that I know of. He had several sisters, but I do not know their names. He married Bertha Hofer and came to America in the 1920's with their two sons Willy and Otto. I do have my grandmothers name somewhere but I have to look it up. I have been trying for a long time to find my relatives.

Fritz Bartschi

cbartschi — 2003-04-14 01:36:21Z

My grandfather was Fritz Bartschi, he came to america with his wife Bertha and their two children Willy and Otto and Fritz's brother Hans.
They came to America in the early 20's. My father doesn't remember much, he is now 83. I would love some family history.

BARTSCHI/BAERTSCHI Surname

HMoser1424 — 2001-09-19 13:20:24Z

My connection to this surname comes from Bern, Switzerland, but is this the origin of the name? What is the meaning? I know that when an umlauted letter cannot be typed (an umlaut is the two dots over a German letter to aid in pronunciation), then an e is added to show it exists. Any help gratefully received.

Baertschi genealogy

I have some census based information that puts a few pieces together. Also some info that a Baertschi descendant has provided. Itis not yet organized but I will get something out to you. It does seem that the Baertschi name morphed into Bartchy over time and that for a while they stayed in the Ohio area. Is your information the result of your first hand investigation? or is it from other sources? Some of what I have is from Carl Seik in California. Is it possible to e-mail you directly?
