Burris family (General)

My step-great-great-great-grandmother was Patience BURRIS. She married my great-great-great-grandfather, John WILLIAMS, in 1851 at the Blakeney Chapel in the district of Westbury Union (if my reading of the handwriting is correct). Her father is given as Thomas BURRIS. Both John and Patience were widowed at the time of their marriage. Her previous married name was Patience MORRIS.

The BURRIS line is another that I know virtually nothing about. I only recently got the marriage record for John WILLIAMS and Patience MORRIS (nee BURRIS) and discovered her maiden name of BURRIS. They are not direct ancestors of mine, but maybe they tie into your BURRIS line.
