BURNETT
ANDREW J - 1870 - 1950
ELIZABETH 1873 - 1926
Keenan Cemetery, Farmers
Branch, Dallas County, Texas
|
Notes:
- Son of Andrew Burnett & Frances Emaline (Burns) Burnett; Husband of
Elizabeth Emaline (Pemberton) Burnett
- Pete's daughter Eunice that Pete stepped in the campfire on the way to Texas,
burning his foot severely and that he didn't walk for about 2 years
after that and always walked with a limp.
Eunice said they came to Texas by wagon train in about 1877. The
family lived among or near the Foster family for many years. Aunt
Cinthia (Riley's sister) claimed to be the granddaughter of Cynthia
Ann Parker, which minimal research disavows, so I assume there may
have been a "extended family" type relationship there. Cinthia did
marry into the Foster family, as did Pete's step-sister, Amy Hoffner.
Pete's brother Henry Alex died at the age of 12. Their younger
half-sister, Lovie Caroline, married James Rasberry and is also
buried at Keenan. Pete was named after his father and after
President Jackson. ..info from Charlotte Cawell
