I am a Burkes from Attala County in Missisippi. My great-great-grandfather was Stephen Burkes born in Alabama 1826,and died in Attala County in 1896. Stephen was married to Mary Adcock in 1861. She was the daughter of Sam Adcock and Huldah Breazeale. The older members of my family remember that they visited an unnamed cemetary in Kemper County to see where Stephen's father was buried. They believe that his mother re-married but don't recall who she married. Stephen had 2 brothers, Silas and John W. Silas'sfamily is buried at Providence and John W and Stephen are buried at Tabernacle.Stephen and Mary 's children were :Stephen Samuelson buried at Ebenezer. Martha married a Jones and is buried in the Blocker Cememtary in Leake County, Nancy married Harvey Hester and is buried at New Hope, Jane married RE Jones and is buried at Doty Springs, Silas(my great grandfather) married Mollie Bailey and is buried at Macedonia,James married Sarah Yates and is buried at Providence, and Hulda who married a Fleming and is buried at Old Pearl Valley .Is it possible that the families may be related?
