Surnames:
I am also searching the Burnetts in NC and I noticed your message. I have an Eli that is listed in a will for a James Burnett dated Sept. 7, 1822 in Martin Co. NC. I am trying to find out if this is the right line. The Eli that I am trying to trace had the following children: Roderick, Thomas, George, Simmons, Sally, Baker, Abby and Mailtia. Any help that you could give in this regard would be greatly appreicated.

Surnames: Bryan, Burnett
Bingo! Will reply more fully by e-mail, but proof of Eli and his children in 1840 letter I found in which the children of James Burnett wrote Turner Bryan of Chesterfield Co., SC (who was married to their cousin Frances G. Bryan a daughter of yourJames's brother John who died Marion Co., SC 1815).They wanted Bryan represent them in contesting the will of their brother John Burnett who also died in Marion Dist.,SC. The letter can be found in "The South Carolina Magazine of Ancestral Research" Vol XI, Spring 1984, No. 2, pg 65.Names the deceased Eli's children as Roderick, Thomas,George,Simmons, Sally, Baker,Abby and Malitia.
When did Eli die and where? He was living Dec 30, 1815 when Turner Bryan, then of Marion Dist., SC was acting as Eli's agent regarding a slave named Dolly. (in same article as above).
