(3) They had the following children:

Bernadine Elizabeth Irene, born January 7, 1915, married Eddie Watterman and moved to Omaha. She now lives in Sioux City, Iowa.

As a young man, Alvin worked in the coal mines in Pennsylvania, but later was apprenticed as a carpenter. When he was twenty-one, some friends who had moved to Nebraska urged him to come west, so in 1885, he went by train to West Point, Nebraska, arriving on January 29.

There he worked as a carpenter, soon having a crew of men working for him as he helped build the new town. He built the county courthouse, city auditorium, Grace Lutheran Church and many of the store buildings along with numerous houses and farm buildings. In the West Point Centennial, printed in 1959, he was featured in an article as one who had contributed greatly to the physical growth of the town.

Massie Ann Wetzel, whom he married in 1893, was the daughter of Enoch and Elizabeth Wetzel, formerly of Pennsylvania, although she was born in Wisconsin. The family moved to near West Point, Nebraska and her mother died when Massie was a child. She lived with her father and older sisters, Mary, Laura, Beccie, Winnie, Emma and brothers Francis, Alan and Addison. Massie told of picking up buffalo chips for fuel while staying with her sister in a log house.

Her father was a mason by trade, and a founder of the West Point Evangelical Church known as "Brick Church."

The eight children of Alvin and Massie were born at West Point. Alvin enjoyed his big family and loved to take the children on hikes, especially to the "Creamery hill" to pick wild flowers. Many Sundays he would rent a surrey "with the fringe on top" and take the family to visit relatives in the country.

During World War I, the family moved to Bancroft, Nebraska, and LaVerne and Mabel married. After serving in the military, Roy also married a Fairfax girl. In 1921, the family moved to Fairfax, South Dakota, where in 1925, to Springfield, Nebraska. Alvin and sons, Roy and Bill, all did carpentry work in Springfield and Omaha. Erma and Bill married in Springfield, then because of lack of work during the depression, the folks moved back to Bancroft in 1932 where Bernadine married Eddie Watterman and moved to Omaha.

In 1945, they moved back to West Point, where Alvin died on March 4, 1950, age 86. Massie died on June 7, 1958, at 83.(6)

Daniel Schollenberger Hartline was born in Berks County, Pennsylvania, the son of James A. and Esther Anna Schollenberger Hartline. Daniel attended Pottstown High School, and taught school, graduating from West Chester Normal School in June of 1870. Harriet was the daughter of Professor Washington Keffer of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. They had a son Haldan Keffer, born December 22, 1903.   D

In 1934, Dr. Daniel S. Hartline was head of the department of science at Bloomsburg State Teachers College in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, and past president of the Pennsylvania Academy of Science.

On June 13, 1938, the following article appeared in a Reading, Pennsylvania newspaper: Oldest person to climb 13,766 foot-high Grand Teton mountain, in Wyoming, is Professor D. S. Hartline of Bloomsburgh, Pa. He was 68 years, 11 months old, when he scaled the peak in Grand Teton National Park. A March 8, 1969 article in another newspaper, (3) tells of the dedication of Hartline Hal1 on the campus of Bloomsburg College, and states that Professor Daniel S. Hartline was professor of biology there for many years. The Hall was dedicated to Professor Hartline, his wife Harriet and his son Haldan Keffer Hartline, a Nobel prize winner. It states that Professor Hartline was affectionately known as "Danny" on the campus.

During the years as Professor of Science at Bloomsburgh, another Hartline, a young lady named Florence, came to study at the college. Since the last names were the same, and Florence needed a place to board she was invited to live at Professor Hartline's home. She remained there after the death of Daniel in 1943, with Harriet who was quite ill. Harriet died in 1946.

Daniel and Florence did not suppose that they were relatives, or did not know of a family connection. Florence is now the wife of S. Clifton Kindt of Danville, Pennsylvania, and the family relationship to Daniel has been established, that they, in fact, were related, as are almost all Hartlines which we have trace out.
