From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Bartholomew
     son of Tolmai, one of the twelve apostles (Matt. 10:3; Acts
     1:13); generally supposed to have been the same as Nathanael. In
     the synoptic gospels Philip and Bartholomew are always mentioned
     together, while Nathanael is never mentioned; in the fourth
     gospel, on the other hand, Philip and Nathanael are similarly


     mentioned together, but nothing is said of Bartholomew. He was
     one of the disciples to whom our Lord appeared at the Sea of
     Tiberias after his resurrection (John 21:2). He was also a
     witness of the Ascension (Acts 1:4, 12, 13). He was an
     "Israelite indeed" (John 1:47).
     

From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:

  Bartholomew, a son that suspends the waters
