OH, THOSE BURKLOWS! I CAN GIVE YOU ALL THE INFO YOU NEED FROM MILES HARPER UNTIL TODAY.
I SUSPECT PETER DIED IN KY AFTER 1820. THE PETER VAN BURKLOWS CAME FROM KENT CO. DELAWARE. THE TRAVEL ACROSS KY I HAVEN'T NAILED DOWN YET.
THERE WAS A WILLIAM WHO WENT DOWN THE OHIO RIVER WITH QUITE A STORY AND LANDED IN MISSOURI. I SUSPECT THAT IS A RELATIVE BUT NOT THE LINE I AM FOLLOWING.

My grandfather was Ernest Evans. He was married to Dorothy Burklow. I am looking for information on the Evans family in So. Ill.

Trying to find more family information

burklowem25 — 2006-09-02 02:35:54Z

Hello all. It appears my Dad's family is part of the Dave Bartlow research "orphan line" from Isaac Burklow. Here is my line more directly.

Grandmother: Dorothy Mae Burklow daughter of James Thomas Burklow & Della (Dellia) Drew

Great-Grandfather: James Thomas Burklow (also found listed as "John Thomas" but all have same death date of Feb. 1978 and my parents attended that funeral in KY.) son of

Great-Great Grand-parents: John Henry Burklow (son of James William & Elizabeth Riley) & Ernie Mattie Floyd

And so on and so on back.
My father was raised primarily by his great grand parents John Henry and Ernie Mattie. He lost touch with everyone after their deaths and (I am assuming) his move into Southern Illinois. My sister and I are interested in tracing back our family and also connecting with relatives. My Dad's immediate Aunts and one Uncle have passed away and we are not really familiar with anymore family members though I met some when I was a little girl at a wedding reception. I appreciate any and all information.

I hope I am not years too late on this...but I am pretty sure Della is my great-grandmother. She was married to my great-grandfather John Thomas Burklow who is also listed in records as James Thomas Burklow but his death date is always the same as well as surrounding family dares so I know they are the same person. The only things I know about Della is that she divorced my grandfather, he maiden name was Drew, and her birthdate is I believe in 1910(?). My dad alway thought she was either Welsh or Irish. Email me! burklowem25@uww.edu

I am looking for information on the Burklows mainly to try to find my birth grandparents. My father was born on October 17th 1954 and was adopted out to Bryant Thomas Burklow and his wife Evelyn. They both died when I was young and so did he so I have no idea about my birth family and would like to learn more. Id also like to learn more about the Burklow family. My adopted grandparents lived in Michigan City Indiana at the time of their death. No other real info except that my adopted grandmothers maiden name was White. Thanks, Angela :)

Does anyone have any information on Anna Brooksie Burklow born to Fred and Della Burklow around 1906/07??? Her married last name was Kristenson at one point I believe. She's my great aunt. Any information at all would be greatly appreciated!

Re: wanting to meet my family

2003-09-21 04:24:03Z

Hello! I can't believe I stumbled across this message board. My name is Kelly and my great grandfather was Fred Burklow. He was married to Della "Effie". His daughter Cecile was my grandmother. Her son, Ted, is my dad! I'm very interested in learning about my family history. There is so much on the Burklow family, but I don't know where to start. Your father's sister, Brooksie: what ever happened to her? Does anybody really know? I can remember my grandma Cecile talking about her briefly when I was younger. I would love to hear any info about my Burklow ancestors!

Re: wanting to meat my family

nancydudash — 2003-01-11 03:28:20Z

Catherine!

Your father was one of my favorite cousins! I remember playing cards with him as a kid-stacking them up like castles. I remember when he moved to Wisconsin. I never met your mother or any of the kids! Wayne has two sisters, Faye and Colleen. I think Faye lives in Salt Lake City. I don't know where Colleen is anymore. I think my folks hear from Faye once in a while. They loved your father very much and were really sad to hear of his passing. Wayne's father's name was also Wayne. He lived with us for a while when I was a kid. Wayne, Sr. was my father's brother. My father and mother are still alive and living in Illinois about 5 minutes from me! Wayne's mother and father were Miles (he went by the name of Fred) and Della (her maiden name was Atnip). They had 6 kids: Brooksie, Ceil, Clarence, Glen, Wayne and Don (my father). My father is the only living sibling left. He is 77. My grandfather Fred died in 1960 and grandma died 1 year later. I knew them both. My name is Nancy Burklow and I was born in 1955. I have two brothers Dan and Jim. My parents could tell you so much about your father and his side of the family!! I have some great pictures-including the wedding picture of Fred and Della in 1905.

Small world, huh?!

James O. Burklow

Jeff, James O. Burklow(b.Apr 1873) m.twice and removed from Johnson Co.,IL. to Zalma, Bollinger Co.,MO. in 1895. Oren must be the same who died Jan.2 this year. Send me your e-mail address and I'll send your Burklow ancestry.

A.H.Burklow,

DEBartlow348 — 2002-01-05 12:45:12Z

Joyce, Checked my census records and found A.H. Burklow,Jr., w/mother, Emma Jones, b.Feb.1857,IL. in Perry Co.,MO.,Brazean Twp. in 1900. Her 2nd hubby must not have lived long. Viola(1873) and Harry(1878), as you must have found them in 1880, were with uncles, James(Sarah) Vaughn David(Mary) Williams, suggesting that Sarah and Mary were natural aunts and sisters of A.H. Burklow,Sr. Andrew H.,Jr.,b. 25 Dec 1878, died 1 Aug 1953, in San Mateo Co.,CA. An Emma G. Burklow died there 29 Apr 1929(could be his mother or his wife.). If I read the ages correctly, A.H.,Sr's sisters were born in 1845(Sarah) and 1852(Mary),in Illinois. They claim their father was born in Tennessee and mother in Illinois. There weren't many Burklows who went to TN. that early and I'm not locating Sarah and Mary easily in IL or KY in 1850 1860. We're dealing with an orphan line that will take some deeper research. Stay with me on this one and we may yet find A.H. Burklow's parents.
Dave Bartlow, dbartlow@sprynet.com.

Perry Co.,MO.

DEBartlow348 — 2002-01-05 12:45:12Z

Joyce,
My reference was to the 1900 Census in Brazeau Twp.,Perry Co.,MO. In 1880, they were in Somerset Twp., Jackson Co.,IL. Thanks for verifying the "maternal aunt" status. I was very skeptical of the TN birthplace for A.H.,Sr's parents. I'm working under the assumption that A.H.,Sr. was about the same age as his spouse, Emma Golliher(b.1857,IL.)and probably born in IL. In 1900 Perry Co.,MO., Brazeau Twp., there is also a Unis Burklow, b. Mar 1900,MO., enum. as the "dau." of Harry Young,64,MO,MO,MO.,Farmer; his wife, Elasafin,51,MO,MO,MO.,and their ch., Louisa,17(Sep1882,MO.), and Martha,14(Jan 1886,MO.). Confusing, but may be related. I'm not finding a candidate in the Jackson Co.,IL. area, though I'm aware of a Harrison Burklow, an officer in the GAR who was hung in 1878 for murdering his wife's lover after walking in on them in bed. That widow was Nancy (Blaylock) Burklow who resided in Desoto Twp., Jackson Co.,IL. Though it doesn't seem to be your line, your A.H. Burklow,Sr. seems either deceased by 1879/80, or guilty of abandonment and successful evasiveness during each census year. Dave

Harrison Burklow,

DEBartlow348 — 2002-01-05 12:45:12Z

Joyce, I actually have conflicting stories on Harrison Burklow, unless there were two hanged about the same time. The one I'm relating now came from the History of Johnson Co.,IL.,p.137-38.
"This county has had its share of crime and much to our shame one man executed by the law. Harrihon[sic] Burklow, a man belonging to an old respected family, whle under the influence of liquor, shot and killed a man by the name of Wagner. Wagner tried to pursuade him not to kill him, as Burklow had gone with that intent, to where Wagner was working, but crazed with liquor he would not listen to the pleadings and shot him outright. Burklow had served in the Civil War, and had many friends and relatives in the community, who would have assisted him, but the case was so aggravated, the death penalty was invoked, and he was hanged in the old jail yard just a little above where the present jail now stands; in spite of the fact, that the hanging was private, as the gallows had been built in a large inclosure people filled the town to its limits. J. H. Carter was the sheriff and W.R. Wiley was the deputy who carried out the sentence of the law about 1877."

William H. Burklow

DEBartlow348 — 2002-01-05 12:45:12Z

Joyce, Don't be taken in by small discrepancies. William Henry "Harrison" Burklow was hanged 14 Dec 1877. You can see why one source could estimate the event in 1877 and another in 1878. I have another source which claims he is buried in Chpman Cem.,Johnson Co.,IL.,"age 46", making his birthyear 1831. He would have been considerably older than Elizabeth "Nancy" Blaylock, his much younger 2nd wife, the one that caused his jealous rage after having come home and found her in bed with Wagner.

Burklow-Blaylock,

DEBartlow348 — 2002-01-05 12:45:12Z

Joyce, William Harrison Burklow m. Nancy Eliz. Blaylock, 14 Aug 1872, Jackson Co.,IL. Elizabeth m. 2nd, c1890, a Mr. ODEN, who died before 1900. Yes, nothing's connected yet officially. I found another Chapman Cem. compilation which gives Harrison Burklow's age at 61 years(b.1816). It has been assumed by others that Harrison is a half-brother to Miles Burklow(1806,KY.-1880)of Johnson Co.,IL. and John D. Burklow(d.c1844)of Perry Co.,IL. Since Miles' lines are pretty much compiled and documented, we probably do have to focus on John D. and Harrison Burklow as possible ancestors. Also, I'm aware of the IL State Marriage Index to 1900, but not of a Wm. R. Burklow marriage in 1864 Pulaski Co., to a Martha Cairns being on it. Dave B.

Catherine,
My Burklow line lived in Johnson, Perry, and Williamson Counties in the southern part of IL. My grandfather's name was Henry Harrison Burklow and they called him Harrison. There are other men in this family who also were named Harrison. He was born in 1870. I have one Fred also listed in the family who would have lived in Johnson County about the same time. Do you have some places and dates that we could check? Do you know when your grandfather was born? Anything would help. Thanks, Janet
