Burris Milam was born on October 6, 1820. He is listed as Bartley Burris Milam in many family trees, but there is no evidence that he was a Bartley. This has caused much confusion with records (see research notes below).
In 1850, Burris (29) was living in Jefferson, Arkansas.[1]
In 1860, Burris was living in City of Austin, Travis, Texas. [2]
In 1870, Burris was the head of household in Travis, Texas.[3]
In 1880, married, Farmer, head of household in Justice Precinct 5, Travis, Texas, United States. [4]
Burris died on May 17, 1903, aged 82. He was buried in Walnut Creek Baptist Church Cemetery, Austin, Travis County, Texas.[5]
Research Notes
Although many family trees list Burris as "Bartley Burris", there are no records that list Burris as having been a Bartley. Every record of his (including his tombstone at Find A Grave) list him as Burris. Both Burris and Bartlett are names found throughout the Milam family records as far back as the 1700s.
A prior source cited for this person is a Military Service Record: 1863.

Milum-32 and Milam-232 appear to represent the same person because: They have the same birth and death dates. One has no other family listed. Please note, there are some important notes in the Milam-232 about a mix-up of the Bartlett/Bartleys in Arkansas. I do not believe that this Burris Milam is the one in the Arkansas Civil War records. I believe he was the son of Henry Milam Milam-1033 and Susan Campbell.
