I'm picking a straw here.I have Burris/Burress/Burus/Burrows form SC/NC area that ended up in TN (Bedford Co.) and then on to KY.John Daniel Burris(KY)>son of Berry (Granberry/Greenberry ?)Burress of Bedford Co. TN to Chrisian Co, KY>son of Thomas Burus/Burress(1820's) of Bedford/Jefferson Co.TN> son of ?????? someone from SC/NC area.Trying to locate some names under any B.spelling who had kids "Thomas"I know "Berry" was b. 1824 so the Thomas (wife either Sarah Beall or A. J. Troxil (?) Burus would have to be b. at least before 1805-1790 probably.I have seen where one dau. was listed as being born in MS for some reason while the rest are listed as TNso maybe have that MS connection.Have heard theroies that the next Burrows/Burress/
Burus could be named John.also might be some cherokee somewhere
