Quenette, or Queen as she was called, died in 1908.  She is buried in Elmo,
Kaufman County, Texas.  They were apparently divorced after they moved to
Texas, since he was married to Nora Wilson and died in Upshur County about
three years before Queen died, according to Ed Burke's estimate of Frnacis'
death date (see below).

-----------------
Francis Marion "F. M." Burke, Sr
Birth 1843 Cocke County, Tennessee
Death 1905 Big Sandy, Upshur County, Texas

F.M. and brothers Willam Newton and Pleasant Joseph joined the confederacy in
Newport, Cocke County TN in October of 1862. Immediately after being mustered
into Confederate service they were ordered to Mississippi.

Their first action of any consequence was at the Battle of Chickasaw Bayou and
Chickaaw Bluffs, outside Vicksburg, December 6-29, 1862. Vaughn's Brigade held
the abattis on the left wing of the defenses. Reports state that the Union
attack was met with firmness by be East Tennesseans. The regiment suffered
only four casualties. In this battle the Federals suffered heavy losses.

The next engagement was at Big Black River, May 17, 1863. Their unit was
holding a hastily thrown-up line of earthworks on the left of the brigade,
when it was attacked in overwhelming strength by General Osterhaus's Division
of the Federal Army. The regimental colors were seized and of about 400 men
who responded for duty on the morning of the 17th, only 112 were marched back
to Vicksburg that evening.

For the next 48 days and nights "without shelter, and with less than half
rations of poor quality, the men literally ate, slept and fought in the
trenches. The mortality from exposure and insufficient food was great-in fact,
much greater than the casualties in battle." Along with the rest of the
brigade, the regiment was surrendered on July 4, 1863. Although almost
immediately paroled, the men captured at Vicksburg were not declared exchanged
until June 27, 1864, and some of those captured at Big Black were not released
until the spring of 1865. F.M. was held as a prisoner in Alton Illinois. W.N.
and P.J. were held at Fort Delaware.

Afer the Civil War F.M. moved briefly to Arkansas to be near family and then
settled in Van Zandt County Texas. He was married twice. First, in Arkansas,
to Diannah Quenette Gailer of Mississippi and secondly to Nora Wilson in Big
Sandy TX. His death date is an estimate.

Notes for John BURKE


-----------------
The Burkes were a strong family in Cocke County, Tennessee, along with the
Mantooths, his mother's family.  They may have had some interaction with
another primary family line in this genealogy, my mother's family, the
Gregorys.

Dock Gregory and his related Gregorys and his wife's lineage of Strange were
old families in this area.  John went to Arkansas County, Arkansas, while the
Gregorys and some of the Stranges went to north Texas, then Indian Territory.

I have not discovered a marriage link between the Gregorys or Stranges and the
Burkes, in Cocke or neighboring Jefferson County.  Some of John's children and
Dock Gregory's children were born in Newport, the county seat of Cocke County,
near the border line with Jefferson County, where many of the Stranges and
Gregorys lived.   Dock Gregory's farm was apparently on the Jefferson side
near the county line.

Francis Marion was away in Mississippi in the Civil War, and was captured at
Vicksburg.  He was in prison of war camp for a few days in Illinois, before
being released on his parole.  He is back with the family.

Sarah appears to be their daughter, though by previous age reports, she should
be 23 or 23, not 21., which is the same age reported here for Mary, who was
born after her.  From the order of the entries, it appears the baby Victoria
is Sarah's daughter.  Since both Sarah and Victoria have the last name
Burk(e), it appears that Sarah bore Victoria out of wedlock, very unusual for
that period.

John moved his family to Arkansas County, Arkansas.  Most members of the
family are buried in the White River Chute Cemetery in DeLuce Township,
Arkansas County.  John has no grave there, as is the case with his wife Julia
Elizabeth Lloyd, but his memorial by Ed Burke appears on Find a Grave.  The
memorial reports the death date, but burial information is unknown.

Notes for Ursula Jane BURLESON


Family Data Collection - Individual Records
Ursula Burleson
Spouse Nathaniel Self
Father David Burleson
Mother Ursula Weatherford
Birth 1793 Anson Co, NC
Marriage 1 October 1816 Rutherford Co, TN

Family sources report her full name as Ursula Jane.  I found her name in the
1950 census as Usley.  Then in her marriage record from Rutherford County,
North Carolina, I found it the same, Usley Burleson.  In the 1850 census,
there were three people on the same page with this name or similar.  In two
cases it is written Ulsey, in her case Usley, as in her marriage record.

Since we know her full name was Ursula Jane, this appears to be a nickname for
Ursula.  Elsewhere she is reported as Ursula or Jane.  And Pleasant named one
of his daughters Ursula Jane.  This variation in the nickname form of the name
makes one wonder if it should have been Ulsey, rather than Usley, on her
marriage record and 1850 census record.
