Ernest Arthur Burris family
Dec. 4th, 2011 08:46 amErnest Arthur Burris was the second of twelve children born to George Washington Burris, Sr., and Mary Mathilda Wharton.
He was also their second son. He was born 2 Nov 1880, as our family says "on Isabell Creek," and died in 1952.
On 5 Feb 1905, he married Ida May McCauley. She was the daughter of Patrick McCauley (who was born in Ireland), and Mary E Thoss. Ida was born 22 Apr 1887, and died 10 May 1971. She and Ernest are buried in St. Joe Cemetery in Pope County, not far from where Ernest was born.
This photo is of Ernest and Ida in 1950 at St. Joe.

Lewis Earl Burris was born 28 Oct 1905, and died 24 May 1971. He is buried in St. Joe Cemetery also, and is the grandfather of the cousin who shared these photos with me.
