My gggrandfather, Elias Burdett was a Union Soldier in Ky and lived the rest of his life in Ga. I have traced the "Owner of his Mother, Lizzie back to Burdett's of SC. I do find Lizzie's name in the Slave Census and later in GA. I cannot find where the Burdett's of SC lived...was it a plantation, farm...? Why is LIzzie's namel isted as a home owner on the Decatur Historic District map? Any help would be appreciated. Eileen
