William A. Burwell
William Armisted Burwell (March 15, 1780 – February 16, 1821) was a nineteenth-century congressman and presidential secretary from Virginia.
==Biography==
Born near Boydton, Virginia, Burwell graduated from the College of William and Mary. He moved to Franklin County, Virginia in 1802 and became a member of the Virginia House of Delegates, serving from 1804 to 1806. Burwell then became a private secretary for President Thomas Jefferson before being elected a Democratic-Republican to the United States House of Representatives to fill a vacancy. Burwell served from 1806 until his death on February 16, 1821, in Washington, D.C.. He was interred there in the Congressional Cemetery.
His home, the Burwell-Holland House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
In her 1974 biography of Jefferson, Fawn M. Brodie repeats a clergyman's claim that Burwell was an atheist and that he was expelled from New Jersey College for this reason and for "infidelity."
