Summary
I. H. Bartlett was identified in a July 1938 newspaper report as an investigator in the conservation department’s game division. The report says he examined Beaver Island in the spring and found a deer herd large enough to hunt, with abundant feed and cover and no signs of over-browsing.1
Evidence and limits
The held source supplies only Bartlett’s initials, surname, department role, and connection to the 1938 Beaver Island investigation. It does not provide a full given name, age, residence, later career, or a separate official survey record. This is an episode-qualified person record, not a resolved civil identity.
Open questions
- What did “I. H.” stand for, and where did Bartlett work before and after 1938?
- Does a Michigan conservation report preserve the underlying survey or herd estimate?
