Burke (g-g-grandfather) that was listed in the 1860 census as a farmer in Preston, (then) VA. (Post office for census was Bruceton.) Married to Sara Long, (though she must have died before 1860, as she is missing in census), with 9 children, one of which was Israel Burke. No record in census before or after 1860 in VA or WV for George. George born around 1822 in VA. Date and place of death unknown.
