I'm looking for others researching Matillia/Matilda Jane Burns family. She married Homer Russell. Jane was the daughter of Roland/Rolan/Rolan Burns and Matilda Jane "Milly" ASHER. Roland was a son of John BURNS and Barbary. This line went from SC to TN to MO. Pattee

Thanks Joan; mine are earlier but guess the similarity in names caught my attention. I have John, Frank (Francis/Franklin), Peter, Thomas, Margaret. Frank & Peter were b. in PA, but don't know where their parents married. Both had come from Ireland around 1832 but not together as both were b. 1820.

Hi, this women has done more then peek my interest, if I dident know better Id think we were bonding and maybe we are. Im not happy about the way it appears she was put aside. Her name was Anna, she died at age 30 from TB. Records indicate she was born in NY perhaps Canada. She was married to James Doyle, she died in 1884, he in 1915. She is buried in common ground in Trinity cemetery Erie Pa, he is apart from her with the Doyle family. My grandfather William is the only child I know of and he died in 1946 a year before I was born. Its my understanding there was a James, Mary., Loretta, and anne. I dont know one thing about her family other then they were born in Ireland.

I wonder if anyone can tie this family to my Peter Burns & Mary 'polly" Horn- BurnsWho came from Frederick Co Md to Ashland & Richland Co Ohio . Peter died about 1898 and is buried in Ashland Cem. I don't know exactly where Logan co is. Simon Pierce Burns was born in Logan County, Ohio, January 1, 1835. He died in the lobby of a Dublin, Texas hotel on April 8 1898 while campaigning for the Texas State Senate. His death was caused by a heart attack. He is buried in Heflin Cemetery, near the land he bought in the Clio Community in 1873. His wife, Sarah Ann Gibson Burns (December 25, 1837-November 11, 1903) lies beside him. S.P. Burns, the son of Christopher and Rachel Burns, came to Texas by wagon train when he was twelve years old, settled in Coilin County, attended school, met his future wife, grew to manhood, and married. He and his family travelled to Missouri a short time before outbreak of The War.He joined the Missouri Home Guards. He entered the Confederate Army as a private in 1861, advancing to Lieutenant, Captain, Lieutenant Colonel, and Colonel. He saw ac- tion at Oak Hill, Lexington, Missouri, Jenkins Ferry, and Mansfield, Louisiana. After Mansfield, General Sterling Price and other officers recommended him for promotion in rank to Brigadier General and he served in this Capacity until the end of The War, but referred to himself as Colonel because he never received his commission from the war department in spite of the fact that General E. Kirby Smith, a member of the Army Board, had appointed him to the post of per- manent commander of Parson's Brigade. At the end of The War Colonel and Mrs. Burns were reunited in Coilin County, Texas, where Colonel Burns was elected Sheriff in 1866 but soon removed from office by Federal intervention "as an impediment to reconstruction along with Governor Throckmorton and other state and county officers elected by the people." The state- ment was apparently made by a United States Congressman prior to Colonel Burns death, and was part of a well earned tribute to the war time and peace time activities of the citizen who worked as a surveyor while reading law in preparation for his bar examination. Years of law practice followed his admittance before he campaigned for the State House of Representatives in 1894, and for reelection in 1896. Colonel and Mrs. Burns were the parents of ten children: James, Mary, Lida, John, William Nelson, Simon Pierce, Benjamin. Walter Ernest, Jennie and Ollie. The oldest child was born in 1856, and the youngest in 1882. Mr. and Mrs. George Pierce Burns, present owners of the Burns Land, were among the Honorees of The Family Heritage Land Pro- gram at the Fifth Annual Honors Ceremony, Austin, Texas, November 1, 1978. Eligibility for this award is based on land remain- ing continuously in the same family for at least one hundred years. George P. Burns is a grandson of Colonel Burns. Don Burns Brownwood Tx formerly Ashland Oh.
