- [Broderbund WFT Vol. 7, Ed. 1, Tree #3244
In the Revolutionary War he commanded a regiment. He served as county lieutenant for Mecklenburg Co., VA and he also served in the Virginia Assembly for 14 years (where he was frequently listed with the rank of "colonel".) Lewis lived at "Stoneland" in the Finneywood section of Mecklenburg Co., VA. In "Burwell Kith and Kin of the Immigrant Lewis Burwell", Stuart Brown, Jr. wrote: "Burwell was a Lieutenant Colonel and gallantly led a regiment in the Revolution. Lived on the Meherrin River (off of Route 49 north of what is now Chase City" in Mecklenburg County. The 1790 U.S. Census showed Burwell as having 11 whites and 61 blacks. Built "Stoneland" which possibly was as fine or finer than "Kingsmill" and "Carter's Grove". "Stoneland" was destroyed by fire New Year's Eve (12/31/1815-1/1-1816), killing Mrs. Burwell's son Henry Harrison Burwell, his wife, Catherine Buford, "a child (Harriet) of her son Randolph", a daughter Mary of her son John, and "four negro girls who slept in the house". Burwell's Mill and Burwell's Quarters were located on the South Meherrin River (Butcher's Creek"). Burwell was buried at "Stoneland" but his tomb was transplanted to St. John's Episcopal Church in Chase City where there is a stone marker."
