ELIZABETH H. REVELEY was born at White Marsh circa 1801, the oldest daughter of George and Judith Reveley. From Virginia Newpapers 1794 - 1836: Patteson, Col, Samuel A. marrried to Elis H. Revely, Daug. of Geo. Revely of Campbell. Groom of Buckingham. April 10, 1828. Their first child, Ann, died as an infant. Their second child, Mary, lived and had descendants known to today. I have found nothing on Elizabeth and Samuel. :( [5] MARY REVELEY PATTESON was born in 1829. She married Edward J. Burton, born in 1813. He was a wheat speculator in the 1880 census. They had seven children - Samuel, Hudson, William, Lawrence, Belle, Maggie, and Gabrello. Burton had 20 slaves on the 1850 census. In the 1860 Census, the Pattesons were living at Castle Craig, about eight miles from Evington, on Ward's Road, named after a place in England. Other census list them on Federal Street in Lynchburg, obviously successful. ....[6] SAMUEL PATTESON BURTON was born in 1858, and married Fannie Cheatham. They had two children, Frank and Elizabeth. Samuel was a miller. ........[7] Elizabeth "Bess" Burton never had children. ........[7] Frank Patteson Burton married Bertha Belmont Penn and they had three children, Frank, Lawrence, andFrances. ............[8]Frank Patteson Burton, Jr. married Mary and had one child, Mary Penn Burton. ............[8] Lawrence Reveley Burton married Jacquelyn Walker Alvis and had three children. When Lawrence was born, his father called all the males in the family and told them one by one that they had named their second son after them. Frank was quite a joker. Lawrence got several different baby cups engraved with the various names his father had given them. However, his parents had a real debate over his name. Frank wanted to name him Samuel Lawrence after his own father and uncle, but Bertha thought that naming him Samuel would lead to a nickname of Sammy. She protested, but in the end, Frank filled out the birth certificate without her permission, naming him Samuel Lawrence Burton. When Samuel was twelve, his mother took him to court and had his name changed (a real feat for a woman in 1936!) to Lawrence Reveley Burton, without Frank's knowledge. Having already lived 12 years with peers who called him "Sammy", many of the people he grew up with called him that into adulthood. He used Larry in college, then when his son was born he was called Larry and Samuel began to use Lawrence. .................[9] PATRICIA REVELEY BURTON m. Temples. .................[9] Lawrence Reveley Burton, Jr. .................[9] Catherine Ann Burton m. Smart.... .............[8]Frances Penn Burton never married. ....[6] EDWARD HUDSON BURTON was born in 1854, married Lula Haden, and was also a miller. ....[6] WILLIAM C. BURTON was born in 1859, unmarried, and was manager in the tobacco factory. ....[6] LAWRENCE REVELEY BURTON was born in 1862. He was manager in the tobacco factory. Lawrence has a special meaning to his name. His mother, Mary Reveley Burton was pregnant during the Civil War, and home alone while her husband fought in the Confederate Army. The Union Calvary came through her plantation, which could have caused her big problems, as she herself was low on supplies. The soldiers began to plunder her plantation, and they started to slaughter her cows and chickens. The captain, seeing that she was well into her pregnancy, stopped his men and said that perhaps they could find what they needed at the next farm. Carrie was amazed at his kindness, and as he left, she asked the Captain's name. He replied, I am Captain Lawrence. When Mary's son was born one month later, she named him Lawrence Reveley Burton. Lawrence married Carry Rumbough. ....[6]ISABEL H. BURTON was born in 1866. ....[6]MARGARET M. BURTON was born in 1868, and married William Nelms in Norfolk County. ....[6]GABRIELLA BURTON was born in 1871.
