John A. Hartman was a mail carrier in Denver from the late 1920s until his death.
Raised in McCook, NE, he was drafted into the U.S. Army during World War I and sent to western France to repair and build bridges.
There he met his future wife of 33 years, Yvonne Reynaud. He returned to France after being discharged to marry her in the presence of her parents in 1922.
Soon after their return to the United States, John and Yvonne Hartman moved to Craig, CO, near where his mother Florence McCarthy Hartman was attempting to claim a homestead. During that time, he worked on the building of the Moffet Tunnel.
John and Yvonne Hartman had two sons and four grandchildren.
