Isa Dora was the daughter of Samuel Bressler & Catharine Sprankle.

She married James W. Barto on 17 Nov 1882.

In a "fifty years ago today" column in the 3 Dec 1932 Tyrone Daily Herald, it shows the following: "Married. Barto-Bressler - November 17, 1882, by R. Waring, justice of the peace, Miss Isadore Bressler to Mr. James Barto, both of Ferguson Township, Centre County, Pa."

They had ten children: Jennie; Samuel; Willis; Bertha (Smith), Katherine (Finn); Henry; John; Frances; Leta; & Oscar.

Note #1: Although her gravestone shows her surname spelled Bartoe, her obituary, her death certificate, and many other records show Barto. (Her husband's death certificate also shows the Barto spelling as do various records for her children.) And, although her gravestone shows her name as Isabell D., her obituary shows her as Isa Dora and her death certificate shows Isa D. I can find no record with her name as Isabell.

Note #2: Isa Dora's obituary indicates she was buried at the I.O.O.F. Cemetery. There is no cemetery by that name in the Find A Grave listings. Some other information shows that the I.O.O.F. Cemetery is also called the "Old Cemetery." I thought that perhaps I.O.O.F. Cemetery = Old Cemetery = Cherry Tree Cemetery (which is at Find A Grave). Maybe it does, but the contributor who took the tombstone photo (thank you, Mary K.!) reports that the correct name of the cemetery in which she is buried is Citizens Cemetery located at Cherry Tree.
