Hello:

This is an addition to my post of 3 July 2004 on Burnett
and Johnston of Aberdeen. I am trying to verify the
following lines:

1 John Burnett of Aberdeen and Old Rappahannock Co., VA
chr 25 Dec 1610, St Nicholas Church, Aberdeen, Scotland,
d abt 1685-86, Old Rappahannock Co., VA. Son of
----------------------------
2 Thomas Burnett of Aberdeen, and

3 Margaret Johnston
---------------------
4 John Burnett b 1549, d 1612 of Aberdeen

5 Isabel Burnett of Banchory.

6-7 unknown.

Can anyone verify the marriage of 4 and 5 from records
of Burnett of Leys? What is the best source for
information on the Burnett of Leys family?


Number 1 above married

1 Lucretia Johnston, (b --, d 1709) Will proved 10 Oct
1709, Essex Co., VA, dau of
-----------------------------
2 Andrew Johnston and

3 Janet Matheson.

Again, can anyone verify this filiation or the identity
or ancestry of Andrew Johnston and Janet Matheson? What
are the best sources for the Johnston and Matheson
families?

The published records of St Nicholas Church that I have
access to, do not cover this time period.

Has anyone used the Scotland's People website?

Thanks,

Steven C. Perkins

There is a recent (2000) book called 'Crannog to Castle- A History of
the Burnett Family in Scotland' ed. Eileen A. Bailey. An earlier
history was published by the New Spalding Club in 1901, 'The Family of
Burnett of Leys' ed. Col. James Allerdyce. From a cursory glance the
information from the earlier book seems to be adapted into the newer
one.
