Barry, forgot to answer this. I am inclined to think in this case, the Sol. Rew was probably Solomon Rouse, probable son of John Rouse I. I think there was actually a Rew family in Craven Co but sometimes Rew and Rouse were used interchangeably. On one deed it mentioned John Rouse as being adj to the Bangs. I have always been convinced the Rouse family came out of New England but can't prove it.

Now that we have determined we are talking about the same white family want to run this because Kay or Rose might have something. The name Burwell came from the Westbrook family. Nancy Westbrook, daughter of Burwell and Susannah Uzzell, md Henry Canady in Greene Co. They had children Burwell, Susan, Henry M. and James L. Burwell died in 1854 right after his only child, Burwell Jr was born. His wife was Susan Moore who then married his brother James L. Kay has the information on Henry who married Penelope Waters so maybe they had a son Burwell. Burwell Jr was not born until 1854 and did not die until 1905. They appears to leave out both the Burwells on my database although it has to be the same family you are talking about. No doubt Burwell Sr had slaves - his father in law had slaves. His son, Burwell Jr purchased LaFayette in 1890 which is across from DuPont. As I understand it, the father lived right in the area.

The name Burwell runs down the Canady line but I dont have a candidate much less any information on slaves. One Burwell Westbrook died in 1854 before the Civil War and the other one on my database, Burwell jr, died in 1905. The Canady family was in Greene Co then Lenoir so records are scarce.

Looking for information on a George Canady/Kenedy West Daughety ,a slave,is said to have gone away with his master Burrough( Burr )Canady to join the fighting. It said that they went to Tennessee to enlist ) He took his oldest son John Lewis Daughety with him.

Cardell is a surname. I don't know if there is a conection but I live in Jacksonville, FL and know a Cardell. I'm not sure but it seems to me his family was in the Carolinas at some point.

Marcellus W. Rouse married Julia Elley Abbott daughter of Thomas Jefferson Abbott (son of Samuel and Mary Peabody Abbott who were born in England) Thomas Jefferson Abbott was born 11-5-1808 in Lenoir County. He was a coachmaker by trade and later became a planter. He was a captain in the N.C. Militia and a prominent Whig political party member. He died 4-14-1853 in Lenoir Co. His wife, Lucindia May Phillips, daughter of Peter Phillips and Martha Sumrell Phillips was born 3-26-1812. Her father served in the War of 1812, and then became a prominent land owner and planter.

(source:The Hertiage of Lenoir County) Lenoir Co. Historical Society Written by Bessie Abbott McCoy & Egbert Thomas Rouse Also in this book is a Marcellus Wooten of Lenoir Co. Maybe there was a connection of deep friendship and was named after him. Dr Richard Williams Wooten opened an office for the practice of medicine in his home community, serving the southern part of Lenoir Co., Jones Co. and parts of Onslow Co. He married Carrie Duffy of Onslow. One of their children was named Marcellus Wooten (June 10, 1875 to November 10, 1899). Dr. Richard Wooten remarried after his first wife's death to Josephine M. Payne of Lynchburg, Va. having only one child named Charlotte Bryce (Aug. 29, 1900 to ________) Marcellus Wooten married Zulieme Kennedy on July 26, 1896 they had two children of which one was named Marcellus (born Sept. 2, 1897) Written by Bryce Wooten Russell.
