Introduction

William was a farmer and merchant in Aylmerton-Alysham-Buxton area of Norfolk. He visited Italy with his mother Lady Bartram and to engage in trade with his Bartram relatives in Civita Vecchia. He was born immediately after his parents returned from a trip to North America in search of the Lost Tribes of Israel (he may have been born in Italy or England). He also as a child attended secretly the Jewish synagogue in Norwich with his mother and siblings. His older brother (later Sir James Bartram) and sister were also with their parents in America. He also visited Jerusalem and Palestine with his mother where he met Thomas Williams whose daughter Jane would later marry his son James in Western Australia. They were both (William and Thomas) friends of the Jewish evangelist Joseph Wolff. He died when he was only 41. He was often confused with his cousin William Bartram a merchant who also lived at one stage in Aylmerton with his first wife Mary Starling (he secondly married Sarah Carter). This other William was a brother to the Bartrams of Civita Vecchia and he later settled in Fremantle in Western Australia where he was in business with his brother-in-laws Thomas and Henry Carter. William is listed in the 1841 census in the civil parish of Erpingham (Aylmerton is part of the Parish of Erpingham) as a farmer and his 80 year old father is living with them (or visiting) and his son James is listed as 15 along with three younger siblings Elizabeth (aged 13), John (aged 11 ) and William (aged 7).
