One of his sons, Dr. Levi Bartlett, lived in the house, and it has stayed in the family since. It has a linden tree that Bartlett brought back from Philadelphia as a sapling after signing the Declaration of Independence. Martin Sheen played President Josiah "Jed" Bartlet from New Hampshire, a fictional (and differently spelled) descendant. She got excited last year when she was suddenly approached by a fellow seventh-generation Bartlett descendant who lives in Florida, but that didn't work out. The name might ring familiar to fans of the TV series "The West Wing."
