• Notes

  !NOTES:I am not related to the Burchfield family as far as I'm aware. However, there are two early Wilson - Burchfield marriages and I might be related to these Wilsons. Furthermore, I do come across the Burchfields often in my Burke/Yancey Co., NC research and Blount Co., TN research, so I wanted to have some data on them for reference. Most of what I have listed on the early generations are from other researchers and not verified by me. Any documentation below is my own, however. !REFERENCE: http://www.martygrant.com/ http://www.martygrant.com/genealogy/davis/ !CENSUS:1810 Burke Co., NC p. 324 Robert Buchfield age 16-25 (1784/1794) 20100-20100-0-0; !CENSUS:1820 Burke Co., NC p. 15 Robert Birchfield age 26-44 (1775/1794) 110010-32010-0-0; !CENSUS:1830 Burke Co., NC p. 199 Robert Birchfield age 40-49 (1780/1790) 2110001-121001; !CENSUS:1840 Blount Co., TN p. 95 Robert Birchfield age 50-59 (1780/1790) 02110001-0001; !CENSUS:1850 Blount Co., TN 16 Civil Dist # 1835/1835 Robt Birchfield, 76 NC Mary, 32 Nathan 18 TN Jno 7 Russell 5 Charles 3 Noah 1; !CENSUS:1860 Blount Co., TN 16th District, Cades Cove PO, # 1018/1018 Robert Burchfield, 79 Farmer $1500/500 NC Mary 44 John 16 TN Russel 14 Charles 13 Noah 11 Susan 7 Drury 5;
