(My thoughts: their step-father, Thomas Burdette, died 9 Oct 1899. In the 1900 census, her mother, Martha (Nixon) Swygert Burdette, is living next door to her mother's father, Harrison H. Nixon. In the 1910 census, Martha is living with her father. Did the girls join Bethel Methodist, Harrison's church???) * 1880 Census - Meriwether Co., District #705; pg. 231C S-263; ED 82; sheet 23, line 47 Morgan SWYGART Self M Male W 35 SC Farmer SC SC Dora SWYGART Wife M Female W 26 GA Keeping House GA GA Rosa SWYGART Dau S Female W 7 GA At School SC GA Ester SWYGART Dau S Female W 5 GA At Home SC GA Lula SWYGART Dau S Female W 3 GA At Home SC GA * 1900 Census - Coweta Co., GA; Haralson Dist ED 26; Sheet 4B, line #63; 6 June 1900 Enumerated as: SHACKLEFORD, Esther, b Aug 1874, age 25, widowed, no children, occupation: dressmaker living w/mother Martha (Nixon) (Swygert) Burdette and her half-siblings, Lottie, Thomas, & Lucius Burdette. * Georgia Death Index Name: Esther V Crowe Death Date: 06 May 1958 County of Death: Floyd Gender: F Race: W Age: 83 years County of Residence: Spalding Certificate: 12348 * Daughter of Martha Madora "Dora" Nixon and 1st husband, Morgan Govan Swygert.
