Bartlett Yancey (February 19, 1785 - August 30, 1828) was an American politician who was a U.S. congressman from North Carolina, United States, between 1813 and 1817.
While the offer formally was made by President John Quincy Adams, it was upon the recommendation of US Secretary of State Henry Clay, who served in that post 1825 to 1829.
In 1808, Bartlett Yancey married his first cousin Ann Graves (1786-1855), and the couple had ten children.
He died at his home, "Oakland", near Milton, North Carolina, in 1828, and is buried in the Yancey Family Cemetery in Yanceyville.
The Bartlett Yancey House in Yanceyville was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.
