Hi List I have found new info and now I'm not sure what is right the family was told that William Burris father when he got off the Man of War ship he went to Ohio well, I had found out something different and seen that William was born in Virginia and that was on one of the census and I think that might have been the 1850 or 1860 and now I have found that on the 1880 census he has listed Maryland as place of birth and what we thought from the family bible of the year that he was born is also different and we had his death in 1878 but he shows up in the 1880 census living with his son and daughter - in-law/ niece for that marriage was first cousins. This is what the 1880 census has listed Warren, Washington County, Ohio Name Relation marital Status Gender Race Age Birthplace Occupation Father Birthplace Mother Birthplace Ruffus Burris self married male white 43 OH farm laborer MD OH Louisa Burris wife married female white 43 OH Keeping house MD OH Baning Burris son single male white 14 OH At Home OH OH George Burris son single male white 12 OH At Home OH OH Freeman Burris son single male white 7 OH OH OH Lantha A Burris daughter single female white 3 OH OH OH William Burris father widowed male white 72 MD farm laborer Ireland MD Will
