"Bushwackers kidnapped and killed J.P. near Bakersfield, Missouri. J.P., Jim and Sam Sanders were taken captive while they were picking corn. A son, Jim, and family friend Sam Sanders were taken part way but released and son, Richard, (then about 8 years old) was left in the corn field alone.

2196. Terressa Martin
Teresa was the first person buried in the Martin Cemetery.
Methodist minister
Left Virginia for Brown County, Indiana in 1830. Early 1845 left Indiana for Missouri. Found a cave as he was following Bryant Creek. Camped within the mouth of the cave while building a blacksmith shop with the help of his neighbors. Tom was the first blacksmith in the area. Rockbridge, MO is nearby, along Bryant Creek. Tom was a Methodist Minister, holding church services in Brown's Cave, and was often referred to as "Parson Brown." He disliked slavery, which may have been the reason he left Virginia. In the 1860s he was very active with the Underground Railroad, helping escaped slaves to freedom in the north. Received his Honorable Discharge from the Union Army 9 Mar 1865; had enlisted 17 Aug 1864 into Co H 46 Regiment MO Infantry Volunteers; stated he was 10 years younger than he acually was at the time. He was a man of considerable prominence, and held the office of Justice of the Peace and was Judge of Ozark County for some years.
1446. Louisa Jane Burden
GEDCOM file from Joe Cannon, Bay City, TX in Jul 1998 to T. Mason; NOTES: After the death of Will, Louisa Jane married a Mr. Allen Moody and moved to Rule, Texas. She is buried there. I have not been able to find any issue with Mr. Moody.
1449. Margaret Burden
RESEARCHER: Information sent to T.Mason from Juli Dalton <juli@homeschoolonthenet.com> on 23Feb2002. "Margaret married Eli Freestone, the first sheriff of San Saba County, Texas. They were listed in the 1860 Census of Grimes County, Texas, and then they disappear. They had two children, C.C., who died in 1860, around a year old, and Louisa, who is then found living with her aunt, Sarah Burden and her 2nd husband in the San Saba, Texas, 1870 Census. Her grandmother, Sarah McKinney Burden is living in the same household. Louisa's daughter, Sallie Jane Allison Collins, had a family Bible with Grandmother Burden listed in it, and said that her mother was raised by her Grandmother Burden."
GEDCOM file from Joe Cannon, Bay City, TX in Jul 1998 to T. Mason;
I have conflicting sources for this child. My records taken from the 1850 Texas census indicate that M. Bourden was born in Arkansas in 1841. Information taken fron the Ancestral File (see below) indicate that a Nathaniel BUrden was born to this family in Tennessee in 1841.
Conclusions:
1. There was another child unknown to either source.
2. There were twins, Nathaniel and M..
3. There was an error in the 1850 census and "M." is really Nathaniel.Until I can confirm, I will do the work for Nathaniel and defer decision on "M." until confirmation.

Two records of the children of Henry and Fannie Burden are available. A Log Book, handwritten by William Short (son-in-law of Henry and Fanny Burden) in 1887, is in the possession of Ernest Short; and an affidavit taken October 28, 1901, in Dallas, Texas, from Squire Burden, son of Henry and Fannie (White) Burden, is available in the Dallas, Texas courts. The affidavit was taken in connection with the Peck vs. Borden, Borden vs. Peck case regarding the settling of the estate of "Fairfax Ben" Borden, who died in 1743 in Frederick County, Virginia. The affidavit reads as follows:
