[This completes the list of the 10 children of Burwell Clinton & Laura Prudence Ford Lanier.]
“Burwell Clinton Lanier, the second, died at his residence in Madison, Madison County, Alabama, September 1st, 1895.” (Burwell C. Lanier [thought to be “the second”, b. 1820, d. 1895] purchased land in the town of Madison in 1887, perhaps to in his old age live near his son John, who married Ada Johnson. The land that he purchased had been owned by James H. Bibb and lay in the northern half of Section 17, Township 4, Range 2W. This land today is bounded on the north by Mill Road, on the east by Wall - Triana Highway [called Sullivan Street in that area], and on the south by Palmer Road. It nearly reached Mill Creek on the west, and the tracts included the location of the Bibb House, now on Allen Street in Madison.)
