H.C. , Dee and others on the lists. I went to Greenwood and researched at Harley Funeral Home. They bought out the earlier Ellis Funeral Home and have records from 1917. Only did the earlier 17 books, many of which were barely filled out. No spouces were filled in. Lots of Burnetts and some others that are connected to my line. Decided to put them all in one message - use which ever ones you need. Am sending it to several SC lists and the Burnett list. Any additions and/or corrections would be much appreciated. Billie Jones tjones@camden.net - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Book 1: 1921 -1923 This one has several possiblilties as to how to connect it in HCs files: p. 260 J. P. Burnett died Callison ( I think this is a place?) Services at Damascus. b. 12/16/1832 d. 6/2/1923. Father S. J. Burnett b. SC Mother Mrs. L. G. [?Bable] Can't figure this one out. S. J. Burnett could be Squire Jonathan, but I don't see a son with initials J.P. There is a James H. Burnett 23786 (b. 2/1835 SC, m.,dv. Susan Gardner 23787 (b. 1835 SC)[d/o Mary & John Gardner]) Separate [1870](m.

James Picnkney is a son of Pleasant Burnett so father doesn't work here? There is a Jeremiah Burnett (b. 1832 GA)[1850] btb son of Pleasant Burnett (b. 1807 Edgefield SC, m. Martha Henry (b. 1810 GA), 10/13/1831 Elbert GA)[1850] btb, but that does not work with father either. Charles C. Burnett 21485 (b. 1807 Edgefield SC, d. 11/11/1886)[1850](m.1. _ , 2. Jane Lowrey [Still ?] 21481 (b. 1812 SC)[Fam ?])[1860][1880] btb has several sons with unknown names and his first wife is not known??? this line has a lot of unknowns about it. A James Burnett (b. 1827 SC, m. Drucilla (b. 1820 SC))[1850] is not attached to anyone, and birthdate comes from census, so could be off a few years? - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Book 2: Another lost soul was found on page 300 of Book 2: J.

Charge to Mrs. Mattie Burnett ( this seems to match with the second wife) Father: John Burnett b SC m Sallie Brown b SC Buried at Damascus. There is a little difference here as you have mother as Sallie Bryant. Rest seems to match. In Book 1, 1917-1921 p. 258 is an Arthur Burnett b 2/18/1921 d 3/10/1927 who lists father as Arthur Burnett b SC and mother as Mattie Willis - seems to be a son of Arthur above and his 2nd wife.

Checked all of the folks in the 1850 column, and the Richard O is the only one that is close. Of course, I am assuming that a lot of the initial folks are men, guess they could be daughters?? p. 20 Arthur E.
