About John Burchfield

From Gary Burchfield:

Records are wrong. John Burchfield was the son of Adam Burchfield and Lucretia Gibson.
No source for the name "Marion", probably wrong.
Wife of John Burchfield was Sarah Parson,died 1838, not Sarah Brown or Nabers.bors

The Adam Burchfield and Phoeba listed are the son and wife of James Wood Burchfield
proven son of Adam Burchfield and Lucretia Gibson. Phoeba is Phoeba Cadell.
