General Notes: Husband - Samuel Burwell

---

He moved to Crawford County, Pennsyl­vania, about four years after his marriage, his wife making the trip on horseback, carrying two children and part of their goods, and he on foot, carrying the balance. He settled in Linesville, where he supported his family by his trade, which was that of a weaver, and for some time had charge of the Linesville grist mill, until its usefulness be­came impaired by the dam washing out. He then moved to Conneaut township, bought a piece of land near Paden creek, built a house on it, took charge of his father-in-law's grist mill until the breaking out of the war of 1812, when he was drafted. He served under Commodore Perry on Lake Erie, when the great victory of the lakes was won, which ended the war between the United States and the mother country. Being a great singer, he is credited with the authorship of the once famous war song, “Perry's Victory.”
On returning from the war, in 1814, he found poverty had crept into his home and his family must be separated. They decided to bind out three of their children: Isaac, to William Henry, of Hartstown; Findley and Hannah, to William Shellito of North Shenango. Shortly afterward he moved to North Shenango, and on July 6, 1819, bought one hundred acres of land of Archibald Davis, for the sum of two hundred and sixty dollars. He served as tax collector for the Shenangos for some time. [HCC 1899, 705]

He and his wife were the parents of twelve children, eleven of whom grew to maturity, only four of whom were still living in 1888.

He was born in England. [HMC 1888]
