1 NOTE Virginia, the old dominion, in 1609 extended from sea to sea and two hundred miles north of old Point Comfort, and two hundred miles south of it.  This enclosed the greater part of the present Western United States and part of Western Canada.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Losses of land:  Maryland in 1632 to Lord Baltimore.  In 1665 aportion assigend to the proprietors of Carolina.  At the end of the French and Indian War, land west of the Mississippi was assigned to the Spanish.  The Treaty of Paris at the end
2 CONT of the Revolutionary War confirmed these western boundaries.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Eight states have since been formed from Virginia.  They are Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, parts of Minesota, Kentucky and last of all West Virginia, during the Civil War.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE The first inhabitants of Virginia were the American Indians, at least forty thousand years ago.  In the early sixteen hundreds, Chief Powhatan ruled over all the tribes living on the Virginia tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay.

1 NOTE It is said Powhatan was the son of an Indian princess and a Spaniard who came with DeSoto and his men to the islands near Florida.  When Powhatan was about 15 years old King Phillip of Spain had him brought there to educate him, but he stayed
2 CONT there only a few years.  We wonder-was his Spanish father related to King Phillip?
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE After Powhatan returned home he became Chief, and was a strong leader of the Indians.  King James of England sent dignitaries to America for a ceremony to crown him a king.   A Burks descendant, Co. M.J. Kelley, writing to Broaddus & Pauline
2 CONT Burks said, "I have pen and ink drawings made of this coronation...shows plainly the wife of Chief Powhatan, as well and his two daughters, Princess Pocahontas and Princess Cleopatra."   History books give informaiton on Pocahontas, her m. to
2 CONT John Rolfe etc., but Cleopatra is rarely mentioned.  Both princesses are said to be very beautiful.

1 NOTE "Family History" says Governor Thomas Dale wanted Cleopatra for his wife, although he had a wife in England.  He sent his secretary to Powhatan to bargain for his beautiful, youngest daugher.  The chief told him he had sold Princess Cleopatra
2 CONT for two bushels of roanoke* to one of his foremost chiefs, Opechancanough, and they were three days into the forest.
1 NOTE *A term for wampum-beads made from the inside parts of shells, and Indians used them for/as currency.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE In "Dr. Chalmers' Posthumous Works, History of Virginia",  p. 74, there are two paragraphs about Powhatan and "his second daughter."  Powhatan told the messenger sent by Sir Thomas Dale "I have sold her in a few days past to a great Werowance*,
2 CONT three days journey from me, for three bushels of rawrenoke."
1 NOTE *War-chief.  Unfortunately, there is no publication date for this very, very old book.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE From packet, info from Louise Park which came from Mrs. Marian Haggarty, 19135 Stahelin, Detroit, MI 48219 who is the fist cousin of Norwood Burks.  She hasn't been able to find anthing more about John P Burks and Richard Burks who married
2 CONT Fanny Horsley.  Where does Samuel Burks who married Margaret parks come in.  Who were their parents?  She has examined "Our Kin and The Cabell's and Their Kin."  She thinks there may be some records in Amherst.  This message is written on the
2 CONT pages that contain the following information:
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE The writer, feeling confident that the original tradition was correct made an exhaustive search for information on that and many similar matters, and finally found, in the old Library of the Maryland Historical Society, an item of three lines
2 CONT in a fragment of Jamestown records covering eleven years-1630 to 1641-which furnished in a positive and indisputable form the proof sought.  During the period covered by the fragment, matters became so bad between the Whites and Indians that
2 CONT Opechancanough was induced to agree upon a line being established which neither White nor Indian, excepting truce-bearers, should cross under penalty of being shot on sight.  To insure strict obedience to the compact a law was passed at
2 CONT Jamestown imposing a heavy penalty on any of the people crossing the line without a special permit from the Commissioner's Council and the General Court.  This accounts for the item alluded to, which was given verbatim et literatim.  In the
2 CONT Council record it reads:
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE "Dec. 17th, 1641-Thomas Wolfe petitions the Governor to let him see Opechankeno to whom he is allied, and Cleopatra, his mother's sister."
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE The record of the General Court was evidently intended to be a verbatim copy though they differ somewhat in phraseology and spelling:
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE "Dec. 17th, 1641-Thomas Rolph petitions Gov. to let him go see Opechanko, to whom he is allied, and Cleopatre, his mother's sister."
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE It is a well know fact that when Pocahontas died in England in 1616, her husband, John Rolfe, left their infact son, Thomas, to be reared and educated in England by an uncle.  Twenty-five years elapsed; the young man had finished his education,
2 CONT and naturally desired to look upon the face of his mother's younger sister.  That she was young-17 years or more younger-her name proves.  Neither Pocahontas nor her father ever held communication with a white person until the two had a little
2 CONT controversy as to the future fate of Captain John Smith.  Pocahontas was then twelve years old, and it is not possible that she or Powhatan could have previously heard the name of the Egyptian queen; and it is not likely that eighter of them
2 CONT had an opportunity to be "coached" upon Egyptian history for a number of years later.  Indeed, it is more than probable that Powhatan and his people first heard of the fascinating Cleopatra from John Rolfe, after he had married Pocahontas. 
2 CONT What could be more likely than that the young Englishman himself made selection of the name and, with his own lips, pronouced the difficult foreign syllables when the gentle savage infant received her baptismal dip into the purling water of the
2 CONT James River, near where Richmond city now stands?

1 NOTE Burks Lineage:  The name Burks is both Irish and English.  "Family History" claims the Irish origin, and says the Burks family was one of the Trives of Galway.  It is said the name was originally deBurgo; Burgo a form of the German "Burgh"
2 CONT meaning "fortified place," and could refer to one who lived in a village.  There are many differenct spellings of the name:  deBurgh, Birk, Bourke, Burge, Burke, Burk et cetera.  They are known for love of adventure, generous hospitality, and
2 CONT an abundance of Irish wit.  
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE The progenitor of our family is John Burks of Arnolds Valley, Rockbridge Co., VA whose line of desent goes back to Samuel Burks.  With Samuel's marriage to Mary Davis, the line is traced directly to the Indian Chief, Powhatan, whose Indian name
2 CONT is Wahunsonacook. 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Samuel Burks (circa 1675-1756), parents unknown, m. Mary Davis (1685-1770), the dau, of Nathaniel and Elizabeth Hughes Davis.  "The Cabells and Their Kin" states they were "the ancestors of the Burks family of Virginia", and he was of
2 CONT "Hanover".  He owned much land, both by Patent and purchase.  His will is recorded in Albemarle Co. Will Book 2 p. 23:
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE IN THE NAME OF GOD AMEN:  I Samuel Burks of Saint Annes Parrish, county of Albemarle, being of sound mind and memory do make and declare this to be my last will and testament...First, I give to my son John Peartree Burks...my negro boy named

2 CONT arising from the sale...distributed in the following manner...to my daughter Elizabeth Cabell** one shilling sterling money...to my son Samuel Burks...one shilling sterling money...my son Richard Burks...one shilling sterling money, the residue
2 CONT of the said money shall be equally divided between my son (*3) John Peartree Burks, Charles Burks and my daughter Mary Smith and my Grandson Samuel Burks...it is my will that my wife shall have all the uses of my lands and of the slaves and the
2 CONT rest of my personal estate...during her life.  I desire she may be undistured in that possession and...if any person or persons on any pretense whatsoever shall endeaver to disturb or molest her in her said right he, she or they shall be
2 CONT deprived of all benefit of this my will except one shilling sterling money and the rest of his or her legacies...shall be vested in my said wife...
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Lastly, I do appoint my said wife Mary Burks and my friend John Smith, Jnr. Executors of this my last will and testament.  In Witness Whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 6th day of October in the year of Our Lord 1755.  His Samuel

1 NOTE 
1 NOTE *Court records show that July 9, 1770 the 600 acres in Albemarle Co., on the north side joining the Rivanna River, 200 acres of which were granted to Samuel by Patent date Sept. 28, 1732, and 400 acres by Patent date June 5, 1754 were sold for
2 CONT 100 pounds to Obediah Smith, husband of Samuel dau, Mary.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE **Elizabeth m. Capt. William Cabell (1699-1774) circa 1726.  She died September 21, 1756.

1 NOTE AT A COURT HELD FOR ALBEMARLE  COUNTY THE 12th DAY OF FEBRUARY ONE THOUSAND SEVEN-HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SIX.
1 NOTE The Last will and Textament of Samuel Burks, deceased was presented in Court by Mary Burks...Certificate for obtaining a probate...granted her, giving security on which she with John Lewis, Thomas Sanders and John Bibee entered into...for the
2 CONT due and faithful performance of the said will.  Teste:  John Nicholas, Clk
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Although Samuel Burks was "of Hanover", there are no Hanover Co. records of that period to prove it.  The records were destroyed by fire in the Revolutionary and Civil Wars.  It is said after records were lost in the Revolution, Hanover sent
2 CONT the remainder to Richmond for protection during the Civil War; Richmond burned and Hanover Court House was spared.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE There has to be a lot more research on Samuel.  Although other researchers state he was the immigrant, this I question and feel he probably was a son of John Burk and a Mary Partree/Peartree who came into the colonies quite early.  I have not
2 CONT found a marriage, but too many of the family used the name "Partree/Peartree" to ignore this possibility.  Of course, this is my own opinion on the name.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Indication that parents of Samuel Burks is possibly John/Mary Partree Burks.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Samuel Burks came from England to Hanover Co VA then New Kent County.  He and Mary Davis were the ancestors of the Burks of VA.

1 NOTE William Floyd, John Partree Burk and Sam Burk Jr (II) are neighbors on Pedlar in Amherst.  In August 1750 Surveyor William Floyd, sold to Samuel Burk Jr, land on the Pedlar River.  (Albemarle Dd Bk III, p. 219)
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Sam Jr (II) was on Pedlar and may have had a store.  Mrs. Gilbert's Notes, Raney Collection, says that Sam Burk went to New Hanover County, NC.  Sam Sr. is in Albermarle until his death so she may mean Sam Jr. who probably established stores on
2 CONT Pedlar and on Rivanna and supplied them from Wilmington, New Hanover county.  He dies in the 1750's so the Sam (III) in 1776 who is working for the Robert Donald Company, the main British mercantile company must be a grandson.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Other than his wife's name was Elizabeth, we have very little information for this Samuel.  His death was prior to his father's.  We note the spelling of Burks as Burk in his will, but when his wife qualified as executor her name is entered as
2 CONT Burks.

1 NOTE William Floyd came early into the region now Amherst Co., VA.  He was born in Accomac County, VA, about 1720 and died about 1800 on Beargrass Creek, Jefferson Co, KY at Present Louisville. (Anna cartlidge, The children and grandchildren of
2 CONT William and Abadiah Davis Floyd hereafter cited as Cartlidge( Baltimore:  pp1966.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE William was son of John floyd Tobacco planter in Accomac and northamptom counties.  He received the rudiments of education completed only in mathematics.  With his brother Charles and John, he explored the upper James Valley.  charles went to
2 CONT Georgia and John "went north". 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE William Floyd remained in VA and began his working life as a surveyor in the James River Valley up to the foothills of the Blue Ridge and is on the 1735 tithable list.  In Amherst County Floyd patented a body of land on which he made a home.
2 CONT (Floyd, Floyd, 11)  Sam Burks sold land to Floyd and were neighbors.  (Goochland Dd Bk 217,119)  In 1745 the areas is Albemarle and William Floyd is paid for one wolf-head which shows the region was still filled with wolves. 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE On the 1735 tithable list with William Floyd are William Burk and Joyles Davis in this upper James Valley region.  Who are they?  They all seem to be young surveyors working together.  (Burk is listed in 1743 as surveyor of a road in
2 CONT Goochland.)  It is unclear where the road was, possibly in this far western part or maybe the Solomons Creek Road?  A William Burk is on a survey team in Prince William backwoods west of Falmouth in 1741.  He is surveying with Richard Davis and
2 CONT James Bland for William Champ on Champ's Mill Branch, Occoquan.  Chaincarriers are Thomas and Richard Davis, william Burk, surveyor George Byrn.  The survey is adjacent William Davis and William Bland. (Joyner, III, 93).  Richard Davis,
2 CONT overseer of the road gang, worked in 1743 in newly organized Louisa county on the west side of the South West Mountains on Turkey Sag road which goes to Buck Mountain road leading over Blue Ridge directly to where Peaked Mountain William Burk
2 CONT settled.  (Pawlett, Albemarle Roads, 37)  Whether these Prince William and Louisa Davis family surveyors are the same as the Amherst Indian trading family is undertain.  William Burk is with both groups.  Is this Peaked Mountain William before
2 CONT he settled at Peaked Mountain? 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE It was in Amherst that William Floyd met the Indian trading Davis family.  Amherst was wild and the Davises had traded with the Indians and got much property for Quakers were "much given to trading with Indians."  (Ackerly, Our Kin, 144)
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Abadiah Davis was daughter the of Robert Davis and Abadiah.  One genealogy says she was a Hughes and another says she was Abadiah Lewis, daughter of Hugh ap Lewis.  In support of the latter, Robert Davis had sons Lewis and Hugh.  (Cartilidge)
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Abadiah Davis and William Floyd married in Amherst in the autumn of 1747.  He was an Amherst county surveyor and militia captain unitl at the end of the Revolution, when he moved to Beargrass, KY with sons Charles and John Floyd. (Floyd,
2 CONT Floyds, 15)   William and John Floyd's descendant VA Governor John Floyd Jr. (Democrat 1830-1834) named his daughter Nicketti after the long ago Indian (4GGrandmother).
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE William Floyd had land on Pedlar deeded to him by father-in-law Robert Davis. (Albemarle Dd Bk I, 326-328)  Robert also gave 25 acres to grandson John Floyd II which in 1783 John II willed back to Robert Davis's son.  Robert Davis also deed 400
2 CONT acres to John Partree Burk on the south side Pedlar along William Floyd's line witnessed by William Cabell. (Albemarle Dd Bk I, 326-328)  He also deed 14 May 1751 to Sam Burk Jr (II)  400 acres on Pedlar witnessed by William Floyd, William
2 CONT Cabell and Moses Higginbotham.  (Albemarle Dd Bk I, 326-328)
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Thus William Floyd, John Partree Burk and Sam Burk Jr (II) are neighbors on Pedlar in Amherst.  In August 1750 Surveyor William Floyd, sold to Samuel Burk Jr, land on the Pedlar River.  (Albemarle Dd Bk III, p. 219)

1 NOTE the middle name of William could be Linsfield as I have discovered several Linsfields in earlier generations of the SHARP/SHAREP family which connects with William's maternal PARKS line.  these was also a Linsfield Burks in Amherst Co.  the
2 CONT Lynchfield spelling was from the Rucker book reference to the family.  As far as I know william and Elizabeth (Pettit) Burks children remained in Virginia except for Hezekiah Reid Burks who migrated to Iowa.  More research is needed to be done

1 NOTE Hezekiah was either born in Amherst or Botetourt Co VA.  His parents were listed in Amherst on the 1820 census and in botetourt Co in 1830.  Since Hezekiah was born in 1829, either place could have been his birth place.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE In the 50's he went by wagon with his in-laws Henry Miller and Catherine (Montogomery) Miller to IA from Rockbridge Co.  They stopped for the winter in Lucas Co where others of the Miller family settled earlier.  It was here that his wife
2 CONT Janetta Miller Burks gave birth to a son Joseph Linchfield Burks and a few days later where the mother died; probably the result of childbirth, or perhaps an epidemic of some type as a week later another son Charles Robert died who was 7 years
2 CONT old.  It is there at the Goshen Cemetery, Union Twp. that both are buried.  
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Later, the Millers and Hezekiah Burks moved on to Ringgold Co. IA.  Hezekiah later married Mary Lech Miller wi/of John Addison Miller who died at Vicksburg, MS during the Civil War.  John Addison Miller was the brother of Janetta Miller.  To
2 CONT this second marriage one child was born, Ida Ruth Burks.  
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Little is known of this grandparent; however in 1865 he died after he had developed pneumonia from digging a grave for a neighbor who had died.  I have no land records for Hezekiah in VA.  Perhaps he was living with his parents when he married
2 CONT at the age of 24, and may have lived with the Miller family.

2 CONT Harry O. Burks, my dad, was quite small.  From a newspaper clipping in the Mound City newspaper, as well as from what my father said, William Henry was a cattle buyer who traveled to TX to buy the livestock.

1 NOTE Parmelia Walthall married William Burks (spelt in various records also as Burke and Burkes) Feb. 29, 1816 in Jasper co GA.  They lived here about 8 years and removed to Fayette Co GA and lived there several years.  About 1832 they removed to
2 CONT Tuscaloosa Co AL.  He and his wife bought land in Tuscaloosa Co in 1836.  About 1841, they removed to MS.  He and his wife sold land in Tuscaloosa Co AL in 1841 and it seems that they did not live in AL after that year.  In 1848 he started
2 CONT paying taxes in Chickasaw Co MS.  He died intestate in 1863.  In 1868 the settlement of his estate was started.  He recorded for the 1850 census that he was born in TN. (See AL Archives Dept., "Burks Family Records File.")

2 CONT enlisted on 17 Jan 1814 and was discharged on 31 Mar 1815.  In 1853-54, William was living in Chickasaw Co., MS where he died. 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE •Notes from Clyde Campbell Genealogical Records and Correspondence, Collection No. 54, Envelope No. 32, Kansas Historical Society, Topeka, KS.  Obtained 13 Apr 1995.  Information furnished to Clyde Campbell by Marjorie Jackson 8/8/61.
1 NOTE   War of 1812-served under Gen. Claiborn in LA, discharged at Baton Rouge.  Unknown where he enlisted, or wat state he served from.
1 NOTE   1816-married in Jasper co GA.
1 NOTE   1832/33-moved from Ga to Tuscaloosa AL.
1 NOTE   1841/43-moved from AL to MS.  Settled in Chickasaw Co MS.
1 NOTE   Born in TN or GA.  He told 1850 Census taker he was born TN.  1860 Census gives him born in GA.  His widow said he was born Lincoln Co., GA.
1 NOTE   His descendants were told the family was originally from VA.  There are echoes of NC-vague, nothing definite.  TN was NC into 1796.
1 NOTE   Older relatives in Columbus, MS say he was an orphan.  that when he was a samll boy, his mother tokk him and a small borther to live eith relatives-kind of relatives, where they lived, unknown.  do not know how much value to put on that
2 CONT story.  These are the same relatives who said he was born in Ireland. 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE No clues to name of his father, or mother.  He named his first dau Margaret.  This is not a Walthall name.  He named his oldest son and child Bennett.  Not a Walthall name.  The next oldest son was named Edward W. which is for father of his
2 CONT wife, Edward Walthall. 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE His father may or may not have been a Revolutionary Soldier.  He might have been too young to be in Revolution.  Born 1770's he could have a son 1796, but too young for Revolutionary war service.  Or he may have been a Revoutionary Soldier.  If
2 CONT he was not, then William Burks grandfather probably was. 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE Mrs. Akin things our William Burks and her James Lyon Burks (m. Martha Robinson 1811, Jasper co GA) may have been brothers, or at least some kind of kin.  she also thinks that James Lyon Burks' family was kin to Joseph Burks (d. 1828, Wilkes
2 CONT Co. GA, Revolutionary Soldier) family.  Her grandmother and grandfather were both Burks:  her grandfather descended from Joseph of Wilkes Co GA and her grandmother from james Lyon Burks 1891-1862. 
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE You will notice that our William Burks named a son James Lyon Burks and James Lyons Burks names a son William C.  James Lyons Burks was an orpha, his mother took him when a samll boy to live in her father's home, is the tale told by his
2 CONT descendants.  His family originally from VA with vague echoes of NC & TN.

1 NOTE 1886. Barren County.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE HENRY H. BURKS was born March 2, 1813, in Barren County, now Metcalfe,
1 NOTE Ky., where he grew up. When about twenty-four years of age he removed to
1 NOTE about two miles southeast of his present home, where he remained two
1 NOTE years.  He then moved a short distance, where he remained six years
1 NOTE longer.  In the fall of 1848 he removed to Missouri, and the next spring
1 NOTE returned to Kentucky, and located on Blue Spring Creek, where he lived
1 NOTE for two years and then removed to Hart County, where he remained until
1 NOTE 1855, when he again returned to Barren County, and located on the farm,
1 NOTE where he has since resided.
1 NOTE 
1 NOTE His father, John Burks, was born July 14, 1779, either in Kentucky or the State of Virginia - probably in the latter. He was a farmer and occasionally took contracts for building.  He was a member for a number of years of the Baptist Church,
2 CONT and was a son of John Burks, Sr., who was a native of Virginia, a farmer and of Irish descent.  John Burks, Jr., married, July 21, 1803, Fannie, daughter of John and Elizabeth Garnett. From this union sprang Garnett, Maria (deceased), William
2 CONT W., John R. G., Henry H., Frances A. (Price), Sarah T. W. (Thompson), Marcella P. (Depp), and Richard S. Henry H. has been twice married; first, in January, 1836, to Jane, daughter of David and Mary (Waller) Thompson. To them were born Nathan,
2 CONT Mary F., Martha J., Victoria and Sarah.  Mrs. Jane Burks died December 3, 1848, and
1 NOTE November 21, 1850, Mr. Burks married Louisa C., daughter of William and
1 NOTE Sophia (Strange) Day. To them have been born Emma L., William H., Sophia
1 NOTE G., Carrie L., Louise C., and John E.  Mr. Burks received some aid in
1 NOTE starting in life, but principally by industry, economy and perseverence,
1 NOTE he has become the owner of about 1,800 acres of well improved land in a
1 NOTE fine state of cultivation.  He commenced life as a farmer and stock
1 NOTE raiser, in which he is still engaged.  He is also a large stockholder
1 NOTE and director in the Merchants' Banking Company at Horse Cave. He is a
1 NOTE member of the Methodist Church at Hiseville; is one of the most
1 NOTE extensive farmers and stock raisers in Barren County.  In politics he
1 NOTE was formerly an old line Whig, but is now a Democrat.
