3. | Burnell, Quintes ![]() Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: About a full century ago a young man, Hizer Burnell, and his, wife, who was from what was then a well-to-do family, entered from the Government a homestead near Dundas, ILL. and established there in the wilderness their home. On the 7th of March, 1853, a son was born to them, whom they called Quintes. When this boy was two years old, his father died, a victim of that strange, but deadly malady of those pioneer years, milk fever. Within a short time, the young widow married a man who had a large number of children from a former marriage. Into such circumstances and influences, this boy was taken, and was reared, receiving from them, normally and naturally, marks that left their permanent impress upon his life. At the age of twenty, he was married to Anna Burkholder, and with her established their home on the homestead entered by his father. Here they lived continuously, excepting for a part of one year, for over half a century, or until her death in 1928. Here their eight children were born and six of them reared. Here they made their contribution to the life of their community. In 1890, he united with the Mt. Gilead Christian church, in which fellowship he remained until his death. For many years his influence ranked with the stongest in the church's life. For about the last three years he lived with the youngest child, Mrs. Maud Elliott of Gambier, Ohio. It was at her home where he quietly laid aside his earthly house on the morning of October 18, 1932. Family/Spouse: Burkholder, Anna Bell. Anna was born on 2 Nov 1852; died on 14 May 1928; was buried in Dundas Cemetery, Dundas, Richland County, Illinois. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart] |
