John Burruss and William Burruss are sons of Jacob Burruss (ca 1725-1778, Caroline Co., VA.) Jacob married first Susanna; second Diana. Children include sons John & William.

John Burruss married Rachel Terrell & William Burrus married her sister, Susanna. They were both daughters if David & Agatha Chiles Terrell and were close neighbors. Rachel was born in 1749 and married in 1768. William Burruss had a son Harris. All of this is wonderfully covered in:

Virginia Lee Hutchenson Davis 'Tidewater Virginia Families: A Magazine of History & Genealogy, Volume 8 May 1999- February 2000.(Richmond:Watkins Publishing Co., 2004) Sold by Heritage Books <http://heritagebooks.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=HBI&Product_Code=TVF08&Category_Code=>

An earlier article, by same author,same journal, on the Burruss family in VA is

I'm a descendant of a Burruss. Everything related to research about this family ends up giving me a headache.
