A. Burrell


A Justice of the Peace Mr. A. Burrell, a colored man of Carney, Iowa, was born in Virginia as a slave and is about sixty years of age. He came to Iowa in 1880 and lives in Crocker Township where there are about two hundred and fifty voting farmers and about two hundred Negro and foreign miners. He has served for two years as Justice of the Peace and has just been re-elected over a white opponent by a good majority to serve until January, 1915. He is a miner and farmer. He produces eighty bushels of corn to the acre and he has just bought two and one half acres to add to his four and one half at $350 per acre. He is a good specimen of the quiet, thrifty, honest Negro working man. [The Crisis Magazine, January 1915]
