George Burbridge, & soldier in the war of the Revolution. The Blue Grass region of Kentucky boasts of many old and honored families, and of the list there are none, perhaps, more worthy of mention in a history sacred to their memory, than the Burbridge family, all men of broad views, active minds and fine intelligence; they have figured for many years in the public affairs of the State, and have left upon record a career worth of emulation. The old Revolutionary soldier removed to Kentucky during her early history, bringing a family with him whom he reared to honorable man and womanhood. The father of our subject at that time was but a young boy; he early took an active interest in the stirring events of the times; became a soldier in the war of 1812, and rose to the rank of captain. He married Miss Eliza Ann, daughter of Jno. A. Barnes, of Port Gibson, Mississippi. The three sons born to them have all been active men. Gen. Stephen G.

Militia, enrolled for the defense of the State, receiving his commission from Gov. Bramlette. In 1859-60, he represented Bourbon County in the State legislature, defeating Chas. C. Lair; he was nominated and elected by the old Whig or Union party; during 1865-6, he was supervising special agent for the treasury department for the District of Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas; he also held the position of Quartermaster Agent, investigating claims inTennessee; retiring from public life, he devoted his time to his own private business and to the establishing and collecting of claims; he is largely interested in real estate; his home in Bourbon County consists of 235 acres of fine land, besides, which he has over 1600 acres in Texas, eight acres in the suburban town of Englewood, Chicago, and a fine property in Superior City, Wisconsin. He has been for some time interested in the breeding of fine cattle and sheep, and has recently become interested in the breeding of fine trotting stock.

WILLIAM L. SPEARS, farmer; P. O. Muir, K. C. R.; among the brave and adventurous spirits who, defying the privations of the wilderness and the savage vengeance of the red men, left their homes and followed in the wake of Boone and Kenton, to lay low the wilderness and make smooth the road for the advancing tide of civilization into Kentucky, was John L. Spears, of Virginia. Arriving at the infant settlements, he offered his services as a surveyor and school teacher, and they were eagerly accepted, for few men with such attainments had as yet visited the dark and bloody ground.

Spears, born in 1804, took possession of the old homestead, married Miss Frances W. Tapp, and raised a family of children, consisting of Charles L., George W., Luther, Riley F., Sarah (Land), Mildred (Davis), Rands (Bronaugh), John L., William L., and Chris.
