My G.G.Grandfather was GIDEON BENJAMIN BURLESON born Oct. 1856 in Leon Co., Texas. He died on Jan 10 1930 in Haskell Co., Texas. His spouse was Martha Ann Caldwell who was born on Feb 2 1859 in Texas and died on Dec 1 1932 in Haskell Co., Texas. Would like to have more info. on their children. Their son WILEY GIDEON BURLESON who was born on Aug 30 1881 in Young Co., Texas and died Dec 16 1926 in Young Co., Texas married SENITH HUDSON GARDNER born Aug 26 1895 in Lafayette Co., Ms. I would like more info. on the other children of GIDEON and MARTHA.

Does anyone know where GIDEON BENJAMIN BURLESON and MARTHA ANN (CALDWELL) BURLESON are buried at in Haskell Co., Texas?

I am unaware of anyone named Gideon Burleson. My gg grandfather, Benjamin Franklin Burleson, was married to Mary Elizabeth Caldwell in 1874 and moved from Leon County to Haskell County. His dod is 11/15/1915. He is buried in Rochester Cemetary, Haskell County. Please email me with any info or questions

Hi Kim, Benjamin and Gideon are first cousins, once removed. They married the Caldwell girls Martha and Mary.

Benjamin Franklin Burleson is not buried in Rochester or Haskell TX. My GGgrandmother Mary Elizabeth Caldwell Burleson is buried at Rochester she took the family bible to the grave with her.

Do you have any thoughts as to where Benjamin is buried? Do you know his last locations?

He is buried in Rochester Cemetery. I have a picture of it.

Is the right Benjamin Franklin there are 4 of them
we are looking for: b: 16 Apr 1854 d: 19 Nov 1915
Last known location was Limestone Co., TX
I would like to see this picture Please

It is the same BF Burleson IF he was married to Mary Caldwell. Had several children named Isac K., Eugene, Charles, Louis(Lewis), Joseph, Ella, Sallie, Walter, etc. He went from Leon county to Jones County, to Limestone county and finally settled in Haskell. He was then buried in Rochester Cemetery. DOD November 19, 1915. His wife, Mary is buried there along with their son Lewis Perry Burleson. Is this the same Benjamin Franklin that you are speaking about?

Yes that is my GGGrandfather which I thing is also yours? My Grandfather was Eugene.
