This is a page paying a bit of homage to our ancestors, to the extent we have any photos.

    The next generation Keeney clan.  Chauncy Keeney (Larry's Grandfather) is the second male in the middle, back row.  His wife, Ellen Davidson Keeney is in front of his left shoulder.  The baby is Larry's mother, Mary Ellen Keeney Bartholomew.

The group on the left of the picture on the right are the Andersens,  Barbara's Grandparents.

   This young ensign and babe (on left) are Larry's parents, Milton Keith Bartholomew and Mary Ellen.  To the right is the same couple with their airplane before is crashed on Larry's birthday in 1947.       

   The young man in back row left is Barbara's father Bernard (Bud) Clause with his siblings and mother.  Below are Bud and his bride Lucile Andersen Clause    

 This is what we like to call "the greatest generation,"  from left, it's Larry, Barbara, brother Terry, sister-in-law Janice and brother Tony.

This is our hope for the future of the Bartholomew family.  Front row from left are Stacy (Terry's daughter), Meghan (Larry and Barb's daughter), Ryan and Paul (Tony and Janice's son).  Back row are Tyler (Larry and Barb's son), Tony and Amy (Tony's son and daughter from a previous marriage).
