Is your family name Burgess? If so, this book is for you!
Pickin’ Up Paw Paws records the genealogy of Colonel William Burgess, a notable South River colonist who immigrated to America in 1650 and settled in the Chesapeake Bay area of Maryland. The book includes local history of the area and the time frame of the family’s migration from Maryland to the Ozarks of Missouri and Arkansas. Interviews with elder members of the author’s family—some conducted over 30 years earlier—add personal insights to this incredible story, with genealogy verified by historical records. If your family name is Burgess, it’s highly possible you, too, are a descendent of Colonel William Burgess!
