There are two grooms in the Washington County Marriage index which
begins in 1799 - these are both before 1810. There is an alternate
spelling listed in the index BURROLL.
Richard/Ruhanmah Wade 6/4/1800
Benj./ Sus. Weaver 8/29/1807
There are no estates in the estate distributions which run from 1778-1835.
