Notes for Victoria BURCHFIEL


Victoria's family name is spelled Burchfiel.  One genealogy spells the name
Burchfield, but on all the censuses, the name is consistently spelled without
the D.  The spelling Burchfiel is also found on several other genealogies. 
Some genealogies indicate that Victoria went by Vickie, the common nickname
for Victoria.

In 1930 Joseph is a widower, so we know that Victoria's mother Nancy died
sometime between April 1910 and April 1930.  I have not found the 1920 census,
which would be helpful here to fill out the family's details.

Notes for Jean Baptiste Elzeard BUREL


Jean/John Burel came from France to Philadelphia, where he married a woman said
to be an Acadian, though her name was Patience Hannah Bird.  She was an
English resident of what had previously been the French region of Acadia, but
became Nova Scotia.  The name of the region around Port Royal where she grew
up was still called Acadia under the British.  Jean Baptiste Burel was a
medical doctor in the French forces allied with the American Revolutionary
forces in the Revolutionary War.

James P Burrell
Birth 1790 Germantown, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania
Death Jun. 9, 1863 Vicksburg, Warren County, Mississippi
James P. Burrell was born in Germantown, Pennsylvania in 1790 to Dr. Jean
(John) Baptiste Elzeard Burel and Patience Hannah Bird. His father was a
French immigrant and his mother was an Acadian. His family moved to Union,
Union County, South Carolina in the 1800s.
--  Find A Grave Memorial #18791781,
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=18791781

-------------------
While still living in Pennsylvania, Dr. Burel and Patience Bird Burel had six
children, all born in Germantown, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. These children
were: Louis Burrell, b. June 25, 1786; James P. Burrell, b. about 1790;
Elizabeth "Betsy" Burrell, b. about 1792; John Honore Burell, b. about 1794;
Thomas H. Burrell, b. about 1800; Margaret Epps Burrell, b. Aug. 1, 1804.

By 1812, Dr. Burel, who had now anglicized his name to John Burel, had moved
his family to Union County, South Carolina, where they settled in Goshen Hill.
Little is known about why and how the family migrated to South Carolina, but
like so many others during the early 1800's, John Burel may have gone to South
Carolina to claim land opened up by the U. S. government for settlement. Union
County, South Carolina deed records show that John Burel was already in the
county on December 2, 1812 when he sold a tract of land on the Enoree River to
James Flanagan of Newberry County. Patience Hannah Burel, wife of John,
released her dower rights to the land on the same day. (Union County Deed Book
"N," p.94

In 1829, Randolph Jenkins, the son of Randolph ... was appointed the
administrator of the estate of John Burel. ... Although Dr. Burel's exact date
of death and place of burial is unknown, he likely died in 1829 and was buried
in Union County, South Carolina.
--  Janice Tracy, Mississippi Memories,
http://mymississippimemories.blogspot.com/2009/03/burel-family-pennsylvaniaunion-county.html
-------------------

"Patience Bird and Dr. Jean (John) Burel were married at St. Joseph's Catholic
Church in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on February 22, 1785, and continued to
live in the Germantown area of Philadelphia until for almost twenty years."
--  Janice Tracy, Cemeteries of Dancing Rabbit Creek,
http://cemeteriesofdancingrabbitcreek.blogspot.com/2009/03/burrell-family-members-buried-in.html

"My name is Bruce Harrington.  I married Sally Stauch, the daugher of Jack
Stauch and Bess Burrell.  Her dad was Oliver Calhoon Burrell and that lineage
goes back to Jean-Baptist Elzeard Burel, whom I see you have documented
somewhat on Geneanet.  I have a scanned copy of a book about the Burel
ancestry and decendents that I got from Bess before she died last year.  (She
and Jack lived with us in Houston during their last few years.)  It was
compiled by Wylodean Burrell Edwards in the late 1980's."
--  Bruce Harrington, Genenet Messaging to Orville Boyd Jenkins, 20 January
2018

"Dr. John's grave has been located and a marker has placed. It is located in
Union County, SC on the Randolph Jenkins place where he resided. Original
markers of Dr. John and Patience are in disrepair and few letters can barely
be made out."

attached to this profile on Ancestry.com and to his memorial on Find a Grave.

Grave Marker of Dr Jean Baptiste Elzear Burel, Randolph Jenkins Farm, Union
County, South Carolina
November 26, 1757 born in Ollioules, near Toulan, France...
February 22, 1785 he and Patience Hanna Bird were marreid in Philadelphia
The 1790 census reported them at Goshen Hill

-------------------
Dr Jean Baptist Elzeard "John" Burel
Birth Nov 26, 1757 Ollioules, Departement du Var, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur,
France
Death 1829 Goshen Hill, Union County, South Carolina

Death date is estimated or reported in a range from 1825 to 1829. His will was
probated in 1829.
(A few present the middle name as Elezard, which makes more sense
phonetically, but most family and historical sources spell it Elzeard)
The family name is spelled Burelle in his marriage record.

He was a medical doctor, was born in France and came to the US, settling at
first in Philadelphia. He was a medical officer in the French forces allied to
the American Revolutionary forces, and was at the surrender of Cornwallis at
Yorkton.

He met and married Patience Hanna Bird in Philadelphia on 22 February 1785.
All 6 of their children were born in Germantown, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

They moved to Goshen Hill, Union District, South Carolina, about 1806 or so.
An 1812 land transaction shows he had been there long enough already that he
is selling a tract of land.

He and his wife were buried on the farm where they lived, which was owned by
their daughter-in-law's father, Randel Randolph Jenkins. And in 1829, his will
was probated by his designated administrator, Randolph Jenkins, son of
Randolph Randel. This would indicate he may have died in 1829. But some report
his death was in 1825. One genealogy actually reports an exact date of 24
March 1825. But no documentation is provided.

The new marker placed in 2006 reports he died in March 1828.  We are told his
original grave marker is so worn that the dates are unreadable, according to
an anonymous comment on the placing of the new marker.

Notes for Louis BUREL


"Shortly after the Burel family's arrival in South Carolina, Louis Burel, the
oldest son, married Sarah Margaret Jenkins, born about 1800, and the daughter
of Deborah Elizabeth Darby and Randel Randolph Jenkins, another landowner and
resident of Goshen Hill. ... Louis/Lewis Burel died in January 1872, and Sarah
Jenkins Burel died in 1895."
--  Janice Tracy, Mississippi Memories,
http://mymississippimemories.blogspot.com/2009/03/burel-family-pennsylvaniaunion-county.html

"The Lewis Burel farm at Hog Mountain encompassed the site of a former
frontier fort that was rebuilt in 1813 as, Fort Daniel. A Burel descendent,
now in his 90's, visited our archaeological excavations at the site and told
told us about ploing the hill top by mule as his "grandpappy" had done."

Notes for John Honoré BURELL


John's middle name comes to us through family sources, reported in several
genealogies.  But I have seen no documentation.  No death or burial record has
been found.

A couple of undocumented genealogies report his wife was Vashti or Vasti
Darby.  It is interesting that his wife had this well-known name from India.

"John Honore Burel married Vasti Darby, born about 1808, and John died on
September 16, 1844 in Abbeville, South Carolina. Burel researchers have
written that Vasti Darby may have been the illegitimate daughter of Deborah
Darby Burel's sister, who may have been renting a house owned by Samuel
Jenkins, who lived nearby."
