Some sources have no parentage for Burwell (or Burrell). Others report him as a child of William McSwain (born 1792) and Mary Nancy Bridges. I have not found formal records of his parentage. David Holden reports Burwell as the son of William McSwain and Mary Nancy Bridges, but has no wives for him. Burwell's name appears as Burrell in the 1850 census and in some family genealogies. The name also appears as Burl in some of his cousin lineages, like the Padgetts. More commonly the form Burrell is found among these related families. Burrell's middle name Blanton is a family name for the Blantons, who have married Green, McSwain and other related families in Cleveland County, North Carolina over the generations. In 1850 Burwell, enumerated as Burrell, is unmarried and working on the farm of William and Sarah McSwain, (or maybe farming his own portion of their farm, since he is reported not as a Farm Laborer, but a Farmer in the same household). This census is one indication in support of the genealogies that report Burwell is the son of William (b 1792) and Mary Nancy Bridges, since this William is also a son of that couple. Thus Burwell would be living in the home of his brother William. Unfortunately these early censuses did not report the relationship to the head of the household. An exact birth date for Burwell is provided by some genealogies, like the one below by Douglas McSwain. 1850 Federal Census, Cleveland County, North Carolina, 4 September, page 315, Hse/Fam #573 William McSwain 35 M Farmer $460 Real Estate b NC Cannot read or write [b abt 1815] Sarah McSwain 34 F b NC Cannot read or write [b abt 1816] Robert McSwain 14 M Farmer NC [b abt 1836] Luiza McSwain 10 F b NC [b abt 1840] Timons McSwain 8 M Farmer b NC [b abt 1833] Puryear McSwain 2 M NC [b abt June 1848] Burrell McSwain 22 M Farmer b NC [b abt 1828] 1860 Federal Census, Cleveland County, North Carolina, 10 August, page 66, Hse/Fam #468 B B McSwain 30 M Farmer $750 Real Estate $250 Personal born North Carolina Cannot read or write [b abt 1830] Eliza McSwain 31 F born North Carolina Cannot read or write [b abt 1829] Cynthia McSwain 3 F born North Carolina [b abt 1857] The Hamrick Data Pages report that Burwell married Eliza McSwain, but gives no date for the marriage. Douglas McSwain provides a date of marriage, reporting Burwell's wife by the full name Elizabeth. (David Holden also has an Elizabeth McSwain as a daughter of Thomas and Frances (Selena) McSwain, but puts her birth in 1821, and reports an additional daughter Eliza born in 1829, who would match this Elizabeth, reported in 1870 census as Eliza.)

Cynthia was the first born, enumerated in the 1860 census as 3 years old, thus born about 1857, and 12 years old in 1870, so born about 1858, not 1863 as Hamrick reports. The child Jane matches the girl reported in the 1870 census as 8-year-old Permelia.

The Hamrick list would seem to indicate that she went by Jane. We also have an approximate death year of 1926 from Hamrick. Hamrick has two separate marriage records of Burwell McSwain with different birthdays, but they appear to refer to the same person, despite some discrepancies. Eliza (or Elizabeth) McSwain was his first wife, reported in the 1870 census, and the second was Louisa Jane Hamrick (called Jane Hamrick in Hamrick Data), showing up in later censuses as the wife of this same Burwell and stepmother of the earlier children. Eliza died sometime after the 1870 census and before the approximate date of marriage to Louisa, about 1855, according to Hamrick. David Holden reports her under the name Eliza also, and as the daughter of Thomas and Frances (Selena) McSwain. McSwain, Burwell (1828 - ) b. 1828 in Rutherford, NC spouse: Hamrick, Jane (~1834 - ) - m. Abt 1855 -- Hamrick Data Pages, http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~hamrick/wga74.html This marriage date could not be for the same Burwell and his wife Louisa J (thought to be Louisa Jane Hamrick) in the 1880 and 1900 censuses. In 1855 Burwell Blanton McSwain married Eliza (Elizabeth?) McSwain, who died sometime between the 1870 and 1880 censuses. In 1880 Burwell's wife was Louisa J. I have considered that there might be two Burwell McSwains, as the Hamrick Data seems to indicate, but have found no records to that effect. 1880 Federal Census, Cleveland County, North Carolina, 4 June, Township 2, District 66, page 6 (Scan 471B), Hse #49, Fam #52 McSwain, Burwell B W M 51 Husband Farmer NC NC NC Cannot read or write [b abt 1829] McSwain, Louisa J W F 51 Wife Keeping House Cannot write NC NC NC [b abt 1829] McSwain, Cyntha W F 21 Dau Single NC NC NC [b abt 1859] 1900 Federal Census, Cleveland County, North Carolina, 12 June, Boiling Springs, Township 2, District 49, page 4A, Hse #59, Fam #60 McSwain, Doctor Head W M Apr 1869 31 Married 6 years NC NC NC Farmer Owns McSwain, Moddie Wife W F Feb 1872 28 Married 6 years 2 children/2 living NC NC NC McSwain, Peyton Son W M May 1895 5 Single NC NC NC McSwain, Landon Son W M March 1897 3 Single NC NC NC McSwain, Burwell B Father W M Feb 1829 71 Married 25 years NC NC NC Farm Laborer McSwain, Louisa J Step Mother W F July 1829 70 Married 25 years 2 children/2 living NC NY NC Harrill, David A Boarder W M Sept 1878 21 Single NC NY NC Farm Laborer This census says Burwell was born in February 1829. But family sources report his birth was 15 July 1829. The marriage info tells us that Burwell married Louisa 25 years ago, thus about 1875, which was our estimate based on the earlier data above. The enumerator had originally written 43 years for Burwell then changed it to match the 25 years for Louisa. That would refer to a date of about 1857, close to the date of 1855 reported by Douglas McSwain for Burwell's marriage to Eliza McSwain. Note that the census reports that Louisa has borne one child and that child is living. This means there was a child born after the 1880 census, who has already moved out of the house. I do not have the name of this child.

Bertie Lois McSwain spelled the name of one sister of Wiley Carew McSwain as "Kelly" in a letter to her daughter Edith and son-in-law Orville Jenkins in 1977, giving some family information. She also pronounced it that way in a conversation with them in 1980, in which she provided extensive family information orally. But her daughter Edith says she always heard it pronounced by her father's family as Callie. This is the spelling she remembers. Bertie's sons George and Frank also reported they had only heard Bertie pronounce the name as Callie. (There is only a slight difference in the vowel of the two names.) Middle initial and birth date from Bobby Butler research. Two censuses, however, have different middle initials. In 1880 she is reported as Callie with no middle initial In 1900 she is reported as Callie D In 1910 she is reported as Callie L In 1920 she is reported as Callie B Her gravestone has no middle initial or name. In 1880, she is listed only as Infant McSwain. She is listed as 1 year old, for a census date of 1 June 1880. But the birth date known by the family is December 1879, so Callie would not have actually been one until December.

It seems to me that the David who was Charles' father was born in 1750 in Virginia. He also appears to be the one who was called John, or John David, and was married to Rebecca Cowart and Catheirine Robinson. Catherine is reported by several family genealogies as the mother of Charles born in 1786.

In 1891, Charles married Lula Grey Trotter. Her residence is reported as Drew County, Arkansas, in the south of the state, while his is Arkansas County.

The church had a Bible Class for adults taught by C. D. McSwain, a former Methodist minister and leading member of the church, five other Sunday School classes, a ``Card Class´´ and an Infant Class [Emmet Sunday School Records, Emmet Methodist Church File, Southwest Arkansas Regional Archives, Washington, Arkansas]. With an active Sunday School program, this design would have appealed to the Emmet Church though its popularity was waning nationally. (p3) McSwain A leading figure in the Emmet Church in the early twentieth century and one who may have led the way in the construction of the present church was Rev. C. D. McSwain. Born in Marshall County, Mississippi, in 1850, McSwain came to Falcon, then in Columbia County and now in Nevada County, with his parents G. W. and Elizabeth McSwain in 1859. Raised in a Methodist home, he converted in 1866 and joined the Falcon Church. In 1871, he was licensed to preach and entered the Little Rock Conference where he served as a Methodist minister in various locales for twenty-seven years. Having requested a supernumerary relation to the church, McSwain moved to Emmet in 1898. [``Preacher who was partially or temporarily disabled by personal affliction or hardship of some kind and thus unable to do the work of active ministry.´´ See Nancy Britton, Two Centuries of Methodism in Arkansas, 1800-2000 (Little Rock, Arkansas: August House Publishers, Inc., 2000), 314.] This request was probably prompted by a series of deaths in C. D. McSwain´s family. Other members of the McSwain family had moved to Emmet earlier. His brother Caleb Orr McSwain had died there in 1883, leaving a family. C. D. McSwain´s first wife Lucy Jones had died in 1888 after a brief two-year marriage, leaving an infant daughter who lived less than three weeks. His father G. W. McSwain died at Emmet in February 1889. A younger brother Lucious H. McSwain also died at Emmet in July 1898, leaving a family. His mother Elizabeth McSwain, then almost eighty, died there in August 1899. All are buried in the Snell Cemetery. In 1891, McSwain had married Mrs. Lula Trotter at Monticello, Arkansas. His second wife had a daughter Junie Trotter from her previous marriage. A special life-long relationship between this step-daughter and step-father developed. McSwain and his second wife also had a son, C. D. McSwain, Jr. [James A. Anderson, Centennial History of Arkansas Methodism: A History of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, In the State of Arkansas, 1815-1935 (Benton, Arkansas: L. B. White Printing Co., 1935), 236.] Though functioning as an assistant minister at the Emmet Methodist Church, McSwain also entered business. [Emmet Church Records. McSwain is listed as assistant minister in 1901. He also taught a Bible Class for adults] He became the cashier of the Emmet office of the Bank of Prescott and was a large stockholder in the bank and in the Emmet Mercantile Co., a general store in Emmet. He was well connected with men of influence and had a long-standing close personal relationship with T. C. McRae and his law partner W. V. Tompkins of Prescott. [``C. D. McSwain of Emmet Passes Away,´´ Nevada News, October 4, 1917, 3:2. Hereinafter referred to as the McSwain obituary.] McRae was a leading figure in Democratic politics and in banking circles in Arkansas. He served in Congress for the Third District of Arkansas from 1884 until 1903. He purchased the Bank of Prescott in 1905 and later served as president of the Arkansas Bankers Association. A practicing attorney, McRae also served as president of the Arkansas Bar Association in 1917. A southern progressive, McRae would serve two terms as governor of Arkansas in the 1920s. [http.www.oldstatehousemuseum.com/exhibits/virtual/governors/the_1920s_and_1930s/mcrae.asp] McSwain´s branch of the Bank of Prescott in Emmet was prospering in 1917. The Emmet Mercantile, in which he had an interest, was the selling agent for the Emmet Truck Growers Association. His son-in-law and nephew T. L. Garland, the husband of his step-daughter Junie, was President and General Manager of the Truck Growers Association. [Nevada News, July 26, 1917. In 1910, T. L. Garland and his wife Junie were living with C. D. McSwain. See the 13th Manuscript Census for Emmet, Nevada County, Arkansas.] Emmet and its citizens were enjoying almost unprecedented prosperity. The new church was probably under construction or near completion when C. D. McSwain died suddenly of ``acute indigestion´´ at his home on October 1, 1917. He is buried in the Snell Cemetery. [McSwain Obituary] Mrs. C. D. McSwain also had many connections in the Methodist Church.Born Lula Grey in Clark County, Arkansas, in 1854, she lost both her parents at a young age. She was raised by her aunt Mrs. A. R. Winfield and her husband Rev. A. R. Winfield, one of the best known and more controversial figures in 19th century Arkansas Methodism. [Centennial History of Arkansas Methodism, 280. The most concise account of Rev. Winfield´s career is in Nancy Britton´s Two Centuries of Methodism in Arkansas, 1800-2000, 64-67. She notes: ``During his thirty-nine years in Arkansas, he served as pastor, presiding elder, teacher and college president, revivalist, temperance worker, writer and editor.´´ (p. 65) He was reportedly a preacher of astonishing power. He died in 1888. See also Centennial History, passim and Walter N. Vernon, Methodism in Arkansas, 1816-1976 (Little Rock, Arkansas: Joint Committee for the History of Arkansas Methodism, 1976), passim.] After attending school in Memphis, Tennessee, she married John R. Trotter of Monticello, Arkansas, with whom she had five children. Three of these children and her first husband died within a few years. She remained in Emmet after the death of her second husband in 1917 until her death on September 15, 1926. Garland The Garland family has had a significant roll in the Emmet Methodist Church, and they are closely related to the McSwain family. Hannah Josephine McSwain, an older sister of C. D. McSwain, married Robert R. Garland of White County, Arkansas, on September 10, 1865, at Falcon in Columbia County, Arkansas. [Southwest Arkansas Genealogical Society, comp., Columbia County, Arkansas, Free Population Schedules, 1860 (Magnolia, Arkansas: Southwest Arkansas Genealogical Society, n.d.), 70.] The growing Garland family was in Columbia County, Arkansas, in the 1870 and 1880 censuses, but they were in Emmet in the 1900 census where they had joined members of their extended family. They were living in the dwelling next to the C. D. McSwain home. [Twelfth United States Manuscript Census, Emmet Town, Nevada County, Arkansas.] They had come to Emmet earlier, possibly in the 1880s. [Garland´s obituary in the Nevada News of October 11, 1923, states that he had lived in Emmet more than forty years and was a lifelong member of the Methodist Church. The paper erroneously listed his initials as ``W. W.´´ when they should have been ``R. R.´´] In a deed from Lucious H. McSwain and his wife conveying a lot to the Methodist Church in 1892, R. R. Garland was named as one of the trustees of the Emmet Church. [Nevada County Deed Record Book W, 548 and 549.] His son Thomas L. Garland married Junie Trotter.In 1910, T. L. Garland was living in the home of his uncle and step-father-in-law C. D. McSwain and was later associated with him in business in the Emmet Mercantile. Garland served as president of the Emmet Mercantile. His brother J. M. Garland was the secretary and treasurer. [Arkansas Methodist, May 14, 1936, p. 9.] John McSwain ``Mack´´ Garland married Elizabeth Christopher of Prescott in November 1909. [Bruce J. Martin, comp., Nevada County Arkansas Marriage Records, Jan. 1902-Sep 1910 (unpublished typescript, 1992), 14. Southwest Arkansas Regional Archives, Washington, Arkansas.] The Garland brothers, their children and other family members would remain in Emmet and be strongly associated with the Emmet Methodist Church that played such a large role in their lives.Their families made numerous memorials to honor their memory. -- "Emmet United Methodist Church, Emmet, Nevada County [Arkansas]," http://www.arkansaspreservation.com/historic-properties/_search_nomination_popup.asp?id=915 ---------------------------------- Arkansas Death Index, 1914-1950 Volume 45 Certificate Number #652 Charles Dou Mcswain Death 1 Oct 1917 Nevada County
