Note: Information furnished by Wes Poff: Burroughs date of birth has been a question. The 1850 Census of LaPorte Co., Indiana shows he was born in 1808; however the 1860 shows he was born in 1816. A line of thought is that he lied about his age in the 1860 Census because he felt war was coming and had some strong feelings concerning slavery. Why he left Elizabeth is also unclear? He died in Medicine Lodge, Kansas and is buried in the town cemetery. By the time he left Elizabeth they had moved to St. Joseph Co., Indiana where Elizabeth's brother Charles lived. The last three children thay had were born there. Military service: Bet. 9/17/1861 - June 25, 1862, Co. K, 27th Regiment St. Joseph, Indiana
