Hi Ned. I found my BURRIS ancestry in Maryland and Delaware census records. Be sure that you are checking for the spelling of BURROWS or BURROUGHS or any variations of the spelling. Also, check in the Queen Anne Co., MD census plus Kent Co., MD and Kent Co., DE They are connected or divided by a state and county line. I found my grandfather was born in Millington Queen Co., MD and it was near the state line of Delaware in Kent Co., DE where his older siblings were born. Check the probate records...I found a Benjamin F. BURRIS/BURROWS listed in 1889-1889. I think you should actually check the Kent co. DE records near the Dover and Smyrna, DE area as I noticed that several of the BURRIS families were neighbors and the census taker spelled their names as BURROWS. My g-grandfather Edward BURRIS could not write his name so I would assume that his father couldn't either.
