From Bartram family tree: We are unable to find a baptism for an Israel, A retired Priest within our Family has suggested that he almost certainly changed his name to Israel, as that is what Israel did in The Bible. This seems the most likely explanation for the moment. I have just discovered the death of an Israel Bartram in 1699. I believe that this is most likely his grandfather. An Israel was buried at Hemswell near Gainsborough On 24th October 1699. Hemswell is a village on the Lincoln cliff not far from Nottinghamshire. Several Bartrams lived in Hemswell during the 1600s.
