    Notes 
    • 1850 Census: George Burrell age 26 born LA
      wife Nancy age 25, NY
      David R. 5, TX
      John Jay 4 TX
      George, Jr. 1, TX
      (next door to David Burrell)
      George was a farmer, stock raiser, living in Taylor's Bayou, Jefferson Co, Texas in 1870 (census). He apparently died before 1880 because his wife and son George, age 6 and daughter Electra, age 14, moved in with his son David and Martha, at lest during the 1880 census taking time. Also living with David and Martha were David's brother Frank, age 28, sister Sarah C, age 26, and a niece, Mabel, 1 year old. Since Sarah had not yet married, Mabel must have been Frank's child.
