Hello,
I am a direct descendant of Alfred Allen Burwell, he is my Great Great Grandfater.I just learned of the existence of this forum page, and needless to say, I am very excited.I am currently living in Crawford County for the summer with my grandparents (Glen and Norma Burwell), but normally reside in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
I also have access to the private (small) cemetery where only Burwell descendants are allowed to be buried.It has been some time since I have visited the cemetery, but I know that all of my Burwell Great Grandparents are buried there.I suspect that Alfred Allen Burwell is also buried there, but I am unsure.I know that my Great Grandfather Edwin Burwell owned the cemetery (My Grandfather owns it now), but I do not know when it was established.One of my tasks for the summer is to take pictures of said head stones.
I also have some newspaper articles that my Great Grandmother Minnie Burwell kept and passed onto my grandparents.This includes weddings, births, and deaths.I am also going to go to the Crawford county library sometime this summer and look at their back articles.
I have just started my research on the Burwell clan, and I can see that a lot of research has already been done.I am so exited!
