I think I have the information you are looking for. I am from that line and I have traced it back to John Burge in the mid 1600s. He came from England and settled in Dinwiddle County, Va.. Three generations later three boys moved to Mississippi and started the Burges there. E-mail me and let me know what you have. I am always happy to share information.
Here is little info:
G. W. Burge's parents were William Burge and Martha Williamson. William was the son of Drury Burge and Elizabeth Dunn.
Martha was the daughter of Lewelling Williamson and Elizabeth Clack. I have traced Elizabeth Clack back to 1539 and find that she is a direct descendant of Pocahontas. Yes I do mean the Pocahontas that supposedly saved John Smith. Let me know if I can help.
Sincerely,
Douglas Burge, Jr.

Hello again and thanks. I skipped out on the last 2 messages last night and just now got them. Would you happen to know if any of the others you mentioned are researching the Ashworth/Perkins/Clark families? I've gotten pretty far with them and what I have may be of some help to them. I also have a couple of great stories handed down = ) I'm new at this myself. Although I started this about 2 yrs ago, I had to drop it several times as things came up along the way. I live in Texas just across the Sabine river from Louisianna. Actually quite close to the area in which all those people lived. We've visited numerous cemeteries and a Homecoming at a church co-founded by my gg-grandfather Samuel Perkins. I met a lady that frequents the GenForum. Her name is Claudia Doyle

Hello, Warren!
Claudia Doyle was kind enough to share with me the message you sent her. I'm very interested in finding out the source of your identification of Anna Missouri Burge as a daughter of George Washington Burge and Mary Elizabeth Stockstill. Can you tell me if this identification came out of a document or is it information that was merely passed on to you?
My great-grandmother, Elizabeth Ann (Ashworth) Clark, was a daughter of Anna Missouri and Andrew Jackson Ashworth Sr. Grandma Elizabeth died in 1951 when I was age 12, and I assume that what little I know about her parents came from her via my maternal grandmother, Lillian Clara (Clark) Gillis, who was a daughter of Elizabeth and Archibald "Archie" Clark of the Clark Settlement in southwestern Beauregard Parish, La.. According to this info, Anna Missouri was a Burgess, not a Burge.
One of my grandparents told me a tale about the Burges and Burgesses once belonging to the same family, but due to some long ago forgotten quarrel, some retained Burge and others started using Burgess (or vice versa; I don't remember which was supposed to be the original surname).
I'm looking for information relating to the ancestors of George Washington Burge born around 1795, died 1879. He moved with his brother Christopher Burge to Ms. territory from Va.. G.W. Burge married Elizabeth Stockstill(1803-1882).

Hello,
I saw some of your posts on ancestry.com. You say you have a lot of information on the Burge family. I am a descendent of Louisa Burge (born 18 Jan 1851, Hancock, Ms.). I am wondering if you have any information concerning her which would lead me to her parents. I'm positive that she is related to George Washington Burge but I am not sure whether he is the grandfather or the father. Unfortunately, she missed the 1850 census, the 1860 is missing for Hancock County and she married Charles Wesley Penton in February of 1870 thereby missing from her birth family in the 1870 census. (Drat!! Murphy's law is alive and well!)
Any information on her that could help would be appreciated. Also I noted that you have ancestors for GW Burge. If you have that in a gedcom format, I would be most grateful. Thanks in advance
Dennis Moss

Thanks for responding so quickly!
George Washington Burge should be the one living in Hancock County and should have been born around 1822 or so. Louisa was married to Charles Wesley Penton then later to Emmanual Jordan Penton. Quite honestly, since I have not been able to tie Louisa to a parent, I haven't entered anyone beyond her into my database yet. All I have are some loose notes somewhere. I do know that the Burges and the Pentons lived next to each other in Hancock County. If you could send me the gedcom file, I could sort through it and probably figure out which GWBurge is the right one. Thanks so much.

My research has led me back to my Great-Grandfather Harry Burge who was a full blooded indian born in Lynchburg Va in 1848
I have no idea where he got this Englishized name or what tribe he was in. I am told the tribes that were living there in 1848 were Monakan. I would like to know who George Wahington Burge was and if they could have been related?

My great-grandfather was named Simon Burge. His coloring was that of a native american, and he always said his great- or great-great-g was an indian. Unfortunately I'm having difficulty even finding his parents. They are from South-eastern Ohio I'm just getting started in this endless search. Do you have any suggestions?

Dear Warren,
We communicated last fall regarding the G.W. Burge family. I am sorry it has taken me so long to get my Burge info together. But I have 60+ pages to send you. It is a compilation of the Allen Burge/Ellen Bilbo Burge descendants put together by John Cleveland Burge and Hazel Bounds Burge. My mother had given it to me last year, but it had fallen behind a bookcase. I don't know if this is info that you already have or not...
Please e-mail me your address and I will send it by snail mail, if you are interested.
After reading this info., I realized it covers my father's paternal grandmother's Burge family, as well as my mother's maternal grandmother's family, but not my father's grandfather, Frederick Burge, who seems to be from a different group. He is not in the book except by marriage (Thank goodness!) I wonder if you have any info on his ancestors? he married Emily Lowe (whose mother was a Burge). I haven't found him on any site I have searched on the web. His son was Hilray Burge and my father is Viron Burge.
Eventually, I will put all of this info into a digital format, but I haven't had the time-so all I have is a hard copy. I don't have a program to read the GED's-my computer is a Mac and it is difficult to find one that works. I downloaded several, but none of them worked properly. I am going to buy a new computer that reads files from both platforms, then I will be able to read and createdGED's.
I will wait to hear from you.
Hope you have a very Happy New Year...Best regards,

Dear Warren,
I printed out the info you sent to me and saw that your address is on it. Let me know if you want me to mail you the info I wrote you about-the descendents of Allen Burge.
I read with interest the reference to Pocahontas through Elizabeth Clack and John Rolfe. I also noticed there was another reference to John Rolfe, as an ancestor, but not Pocahontas. I know these things are usually family mythology...have you checked this out? Do you have the info?
I am still looking for the father of Fredrick Burge (Ms.), G.W. "Bud" Burge who was married to Isaline Rester, with no luck as of yet.
Best regards,
Aleta T.
T. From Aleta T: Received 1/20/2001 and written by John Cleveland Burge * Hazel Bounds Burge and the mother of Aleta:
FORWARD.
My Wife, Hazel LEna Bounds Burge and I have spent many enjoyable hours compiling the information found on the following pages. We realize the incompleteness fo this work. Howver, we feel a strong obligation to put into print the fruits of our labor. It is our hope that others will be stimulated to action and work together with out son, Bobby Joe Burge, in reseasrching and compiling a complete story of the relatishonship of our families. We seem to become so easily lost in our present race of life without a written knowledge of who we are. Somehouw a true knowledge of the past makes the future more interesting to comfront. It is for certain, those living today will be teh ancestors of tomorrow.
Please contribute by sending omitted family date or corracted and additional information to Bobby Joe Burge, Route 3, B os 460, Poplarville, Mississippi 39470 We are also seeking family pictures and especially pictures of the older ones.
By John Cleveland Burge
Published June 1978
George Washington Tubre was born around 1795 in Virginia. He and several brothers and sisters ventured to this area for a new frontier life in the Mississippi Territory.
We know that George had several brothers and sisters that gew up with him here. He and one of his brothers married Stockstill sisters. George Washington Burge married Elizabeth Stockstill and his brother Christopher married Telitha Stockstill. These were the daughters of Joshua Stockstill, born 1768 and Mary Lavinnna Knight.
Then we find a George Washington Bilbo in this area wo married to Prissiller Smith, daughter of Andrew Smith Jr., and Nancy Robets. Prissiller is a sister to James "Poplua Jim" Smith for whom Poplarville was named. George W. Bilbo and Prissiller Smsith's daughter, Ellen, was a sister to James Oliver Bilbo whose son was Theodore Gilmore Bilbo, U.S. Senator and Governor fo Mississippi. Governor Bilbo's Aunt Ellen Married Allen Burge, son of George Washington Burge and Elizabeth Stockstill. The story of Allen and Ellen's descendents is what I have tried to compile on the following pages.

Hi,
Some thoughts on Christopher Burge who was my gggf:
1. I have seen Talithia mentioned as Elizabeth Telithia Stockstill. Please clarify this for me. How did we come up with Elizabeth? Her sister was Mary Elizabeth Stockstill that married George Washington Burge in 1822. Was there two Elizabeth's in this family? One of Telithia's children was named Elizabeth. Telithia died prior to 1850, perhaps La.
2. Christopher died circ 1858. He, and his brother George applied for their "Bounty Land" in 1858 at Newton County, Texas. He was alive in 1858 but don't show up on the 1860 census. He most probably died within that time frame. He is buried in a small plot South of Merryville, La. together with his son and daughter-in-law, Henderson Christopher and Soloma Slaydon Burge. Other folk most likely buried there as the little plot was mostly forgotten till the WPA come thru and put stones on the graves that they could verify.
3 Do we know for sure who Christopher and George's parents were? Lots of speculation about that few years ago. Confusion may have come from Mr. Burks back in the fifties that said he remembered Christopher as being the son of Thomas Burge. That is true, Thomas did have a son named Christopher. That also has been documented by the Mormons.
Thanks.
Tony Burge
