I am trying to find information on DUSM Sam Bartell. Sam Bartell was involved in solving the murder of a relative of mine back in 1905. Her name was Katie DeWitt James.

I would like to get in touch with his descendents and see if he passed down any information on the case.

Back in October of 2007 Diron posted "DUSM Sam Bartell - Claim Jumper????" so he may have something.

In the meantime there is a small biography on him on a web site called Mystorical.
