<\/a><\/p>\nThis appears to be new territory to look at.<\/p>\n
Here is part of my great-granmother’s maternal line:<\/p>\n
It shows that Timothy Burbank was married to Mercy Kempton.<\/p>\n Apparently Timothy Burbank was born in Boston in 1703. However, he married in Plymouth.<\/p>\n I have that Timothy’s father was born in Haverhill and that his grandfather was from Rowley.<\/p>\n Donna’s tree goes back to Mary Burbank which is hopeful:<\/p>\n Donna’s tree shows Mary dying in Canada:<\/p>\n Mayflower Births and Deaths has this entry:<\/p>\n This leads to Register 59 from 1905:<\/p>\n This shows a strong link at the top of the tree. I note that families left not because they were unsympathetic to the Revolution, but because they could get free land. I also read that residents of this area became unsympathetic to the Revolution after being raided by Americans.<\/p>\n Now I will start at the more recent part of the tree. Here is the birth record for Donna’s father:<\/p>\n Cape Negro Island is not too far from Yarmouth which I cut off on the map. Shirley’s father Wilford was a fisherman which makes sense given the location that they lived.<\/p>\n The 1901 Census says the family was Baptist, Scottish and the father was a blacksmith. His wife is 37 and he has a daughter who is 27, so that suggests that this was a second marriage.<\/p>\n I think the red on the map is Jordan River. Here is the widowed Albert Morton in 1881:<\/p>\n I found this at Ancestry which apparently refers to FamilySearch:<\/p>\n Albert Edward was born in Liverpool:<\/p>\n His parents were James Roland and Katy S.? (transcribed as F.). James was a mason. This James would be the son of the Lucy mentioned in the New England Historic and Genealogical Register (NEHGR) above.<\/p>\n At this point, I connect my floating tree of Donna into my main tree:<\/p>\n In my mind, the fact that Donna’s Burbank moved to Nova Scotia before the Revolution makes this DNA connection more likely.<\/p>\n Douglas could help fill out my Burbank DNA\/Genealogy Tree. The 1910 Census has Douglas’ grandfather a physician in Gloucester in 1910:<\/p>\n The fact that the grandfather was from Canada is hopeful. Douglas’ grandfather’s marriage record is helpful:<\/p>\n It gives his birth place and parents’ names. Here is Milton, near Liverpool, NS:<\/p>\n Here is the family in 1891:<\/p>\n Richard was a Congragationalist who was listed as farmer and huntman. So far the tree is going well:<\/p>\n Findagrave.com has this information:<\/p>\n This research on Thomas Knowles was found at Ancestry:<\/p>\n This document was also helpful:<\/p>\n Based on this, I accepted the parent hints at Ancestry:<\/p>\n From there, I added Elizabeth Crowell and linked Elizabeth Burbank to the Timothy Burbank I already had in my tree.<\/p>\n Here, the Burbank DNA\/Genealogy Tree gets a little more width:<\/p>\n It turns out that Douglas has small DNA matches to two of my siblings.<\/p>\n The paternal side of FM’s tree is from Nova Scotia. I have had success so far with Joyce’s Burbank ThruLines. As usual, I start a floating tree for F.M. F.M. has a small tree at Ancestry:<\/p>\n Here is the family in 1921:<\/p>\n John was Scottish and the Town Clerk. However it is Mattie I am interested in.<\/p>\n Here is Mattie’s family in 1901 in Brooklyn, NS:<\/p>\n ThruLines wants me to go with Mattie’s mother Gertrude at this point and then Gertrude’s father. Gertrudes grave stone has her maiden name:<\/p>\n Gertrude’s father was a Baptist blacksmith:<\/p>\n Based on this, I’ll accept the Ancestry hint of Theodosius as Gertrude’s father.<\/p>\n At this point, I look at the family from near the top of the ThruLines:<\/p>\n Hannah marries in Plymouth in 1758. That means that the above Theodosius must have been named for his grandfather. The easiest reference I can find to fill in the blank is this:<\/p>\n Adoriam Judson caught my eye. I assume that Theodosius was a fan of the missionary:<\/p>\n Next, I just need to connect John Ford to his parents in my tree and connect the floating tree.<\/p>\n Here is the big picture:<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nSome Burbank Genealogy<\/h2>\n
