 Lula was the third wife of Andrew Bullock.  Lula was born on August, 1879  and her mother Ellen Conerly Brumfield was born on December, 1854 in Mississippi from the information of the 1900 enumeration of the Pike County, Mississippi Federal census. Ellen Conerly is enumerated in the 1880 federal census with daughter Lula McEwen 10 years old, Isaac Brumfield 8 son years old, Mary Powel 5 years old daughter and mother Ma--- (can't decipher) Magee 60 years old. Ellen's mother was born in Mississippi and grandfather in Africa and her grandmother in S. C. designated for South Carolina.

Lula McEwen 16 years old is listed in the 1885 Pike County school census with her mother Ellen Conerly. There is a discrepancy in Lula's birthdate in the 1900 census and the school census. Lula's birthdate would be 1869 according to the school census.

Ellen married Robert Brumfield Sr on February 11, 1886 in Pike County. She is recorded as Ellen McEwen. Moses Conerly helped post the marriage bond. Moses and Ellen were probably related but the connection has not been identified at this time. Robert's first wife Ann was identified in the 1870 and 1880 Federal census and probably died. Robert Brumfield Sr. homesteaded land in Pike County. Prior information about Robert Sr. and his homestead information was given in prior blogs.
