85. Drury Buchman⁶ Breazeale (Drury Woods⁵ Breazell, Drury⁴ Brazeal, Henry³, Henry² Brazeel, Henry¹) was born in South Carolina 1775. Drury died 1846.

He married Mary Anna Bushelieu 1799. Mary was born 1775 France. Mary died 1850. Drury Buchman Breazeale was born in South Carolina about 1775. Mary Anna was born in France in 1775 (+ or -). They were married about 1799. They moved from S.C. to Georgia about 1819 where their last child B.J. Breazeale was born. Then sometime after 1820 the family moved to Green County, Ala., but on the way Drury Buchman Breazeale died, because the 1830 U.S. Census for Green Co., Ala. shows only Anna (who is about 54 years of age) and 3 females and 2 males. James A., Elijah, and their families lived on the next farms. Anna died after 1850. Sometime after 1838, Elijah B., Jefferson B., and B.J. Breazeale, with their families moved to Mississippi. They lived in Kemper County, Miss in 1850, then moved to Neshoba County, Miss before 1860 because I have found them in 1860 in Neshoba County, Miss., Beat #5, which is the N.W. corner of Neshoba Co. These families all grew up either in southwest Winston Co., Miss., southeast Attala Co., Miss., or northwest Neshoba Co., Miss. There are many descendants living in these three counties today and many more buried in their cemeteries.

Drury Buchman Breazeale and Mary Anna Bushelieu had the following family:

157 i. James A.⁷ Breazeale was born in South Carolina 1800. He married Elizabeth Cooper February 20, 1824 in Greene Co, AL. The record I have on this family is the U.S. Census for 1830 in Green County, Ala. James was born in S.C. He married in Green County, Ala. about 1824. In 1830, James and Elizabeth had one son (under 10 years) and 2 daughters (under 10 years). James was about 30 years of age, Elizabeth was between 20 - 30 years. They moved to Jasper County, Miss. about 1850, then later moved closer to their relatives in Neshoba or Winston Co. Miss.

158 ii. Frances Breazeale was born ABT 1805. She married Lewis Gilmore May 11, 1826 in Greene Co, AL. I have no records on Frances Breazeale except that she and Mr. Gilmore were married about 1826. She was born about 1805. They probably moved to Mississippi with other family members, but we have no records at this time to prove this.

159 iii. Elijah Bushaloo Breazeale was born 1808.

160 iv. Harriet Breazeale was born 1810. She married Hardy Massey about 1831. I have no information on this daughter of Anna's except she was born about 1810 and married about 1831. They probably moved to Mississippi with her family.

161 v. Huldah Breazeale was born 1814.

162 vi. Cynthia Breazeale was born August 1, 1816.

163 vii. Jefferson Barzella Breazeale was born 1817.

164 viii. Benjamin J. Breazeale was born 1819.
