Bartlett was a butcher by occupation, like his father. Between his first wife Henrietta and second wife Christina, he had at least four children: Sarah, Mary, Alice and Minnie.

He served as a Private in Company "I", 1st Virginia Volunteer Infantry, in the Mexican-American War.

He enlisted as a Private in Capt. Philip B. Stanard's / Capt. E. J. Anderson's Company, Virginia Light Artillery on 15 March 1862. That Company became Company "C" (the "Hampden Artillery"), 38th Battalion, Virginia Light Artillery in October 1862. Bartlett was hospitalized several times thereafter, and finally was discharged for disability in January 1863. He was described at enlistment as 5'10" tall, with dark complexion, eyes and hair.

His grave in the Thomas Adams Estate plot, near his parents and his children Sarah and Minnie, was marked in October 2022 through the efforts of the "Friends of Shockoe Hill Cemetery," and with the generous assistance of the Virginia Division, Children of the Confederacy.
