Burwell Edmundson1,2

M, ID# 3918, b. 27 January 1842, d. 31 January 1942

Burwell Edmundson, from Navarro County History, vol. 2, p. 387.

  • Note*: He was born about four miles east of Huntsville, Texas, on Harmons Creek, where his parents farmed and his father operated a blacksmith shop and a mill powered by a water wheel. Burwell remembered being told, at age 5 or 6, by a bearded, old wheelwright that if he lived to be as old as the wheelwright he would see people flying through the air. The family moved to near Chatfield in 1854 and two years later moved to Waxahachie, where they operated a ranch, blacksmith shop, and grocery store. Burwell worked carrying the mail by horse between Waxahachie and Athens in 1857, and in 1858 the family moved to Waco, where Burwell's father operated a hotel until he died in 1860. Burwell remembered seeing Cynthia Ann Parker at the hotel after she was taken from her Indian family. He, his mother, and his siblings moved to a farm in Navarro County, between Chatfield and Porter's Bluff. He enlisted in the Confederate Army in August 1862 and was at the Battle of Vicksburg. He was released by the Union Army on July 10, 1863, about a week after the surrender, and Burwell walked most of the way back to Navarro County while suffering from malnutrition. After a two-month rest, he reported to Galveston and served on guard duty there until the end of the war. He then returned to Chatfield and worked driving cattle to Shreveport and New Orleans until 1869. After their marriage, Burwell and Jane lived for a couple of years in a log cabin between Chatfield and Porter's Bluff, then moved in 1871 to a farm about 4-5 miles south of Oak Grove, in Ellis County, where the children attended school, and in 1894 moved to Rice, where he and Jane lived the rest of their lives.
