Daughter of Doctor S. & Jane (UNKNOWN) BULLOCK.

The 1860 census of Columbus, Muscogee County, Georgia, shows: Doctor S. BULLOCK (aged 38 years, born in Georgia, a wagon maker holding personal estate valued at $1800) & Jane BULLOCK (34 SC), with the following children (all born in Georgia): Frank (13), Lamartine (female, 12), Webster (9), Alice (7), Odessa Janie (4) & James (2).

Dolores Autry reports in her Section J, Lot 155: Dessal BULLOCK (cannot read dates) daughter of D. S. & J. BULLOCK [no further information]

The cemetery listing, from the 1943 survey of Linwood conducted by the LDS Southern States Mission, shows: Thomas Dessau, b. 8 Feb. 1856, dau. of D. S. and Mrs. J. Bullock, d. 10 Aug 1863 (sic).

Buster Wright's "Burials and Deaths Reported in the Columbus (Georgia) Enquirer [Newspaper], 1832-1872" (1984), p. 64, shows: child of D. S. BULLOCK died aged 6 years in Columbus, Georgia; was buried 10 AUG 1863 as a non-resident of Georgia (from Sexton's report published 10 OCT 1863). John H. Martin’s “The Making of a Modern City: Columbus, Georgia, 1827-65,” Volume II (1875), p. 165, shows the same burial, from the same source Wright used.

Mary Jane Galer's "COLUMBUS, GA: Lists of People, 1828-1852, and Sexton's Reports to 1866" (2000), p. 237, shows: D. S. BULLOCK's child died aged 6 years of spams; buried 10 AUG 1863 as a non-resident (from "September 30, 1863 Sexton's Report of interments for quarter," dated 05 OCT 1863).

No corresponding entry for this burial has so far been detected in the Sexton's record, but it may predate the commencement of routine record-keeping by the Sexton.

It is not clear if this is the same child or a different one: Thomas? Dessau ? BULLOCK (grave marker pictured says "daughter").
