| Amelia County, Virginia In 1864? (Including C. Burton, A Possible Relative) LOC |
Paraphrased information from the Combs Family (1658-1930):
Samuel Burton of Amelia County, Virginia, was born in neighboring Henrico Co., Va., and sometimes was found recorded in Chesterfield Co. He was the son of John Burton in liaison with Judith Nunnally. Bristol Parish births have the following entry: "Samuel Burton son of Judith Nunsry born Aug 8,1725."

Samuel...was acknowledged in John Burton's Will as a son. At age seven, his mother, Judith, placed him in apprenticeship with Thomas Cheatham, a neighbor of his father, John Burton, after which she married a man surnamed Worsham. "... Churchwardens of this parish of Henrico...bind unto Thomas Cheatham, Senr. his executors... Samuel Burton a bastard child of *Judith Nunsllys...3 April, 1732."
*My Heritage site named Richard Nunnally and Sarah Akin as Judith's parents
About 1746 Samuel Burton, age twenty-one, married [possibly Priscilla Greenhill, daughter of David and Catherine (Claiborne) Greenhill, though no specific record of such marriage has ever been found].
