Russell was the third of four children of Jeremy Mathews Burroughs, a plumber, and Anna Rebecca Hampton Burroughs.

Russell was married and widowed three times. In 1922 he wed his first wife, the widowed Goldie Laura Miller Burket. He helped to raise her three children from her first marriage, and they had three children together: Goldie Rebecca in 1923, Russell Wallace about 1926, and Raymond Jeremy in 1928.

Seventeen years after Goldie's death in 1931, Russell married Mary E. Lewis. After she passed away in 1961, he married Jennie Allen Eversburg a year later.

He was a farm laborer as a youth, then a motorman on the Trenton trolleys. He lived in Trenton for most of his adult life.

He was known to his grandchildren as Bebob.

Russell shares a gravestone with his second wife, his father and his brother Leon.
