In answer to your query about Rev Aaron BURR and his son, most well known member of the tribe.

The best reference for any of the BURRs is the book, BURR FAMILY IN AMERICA by Charles Burr Todd. He was from the Fairfield branch of the BURR family, as were the Aarons.

Daniel BURR born around 1680 in Fairfield CT.
His children, as listed by Todd, were:
Jehue
Stephen bapt. 3 Oct 1698
Peter bapt. 23 Jul 1700
Jane bapt. 17 Apr 1702 m.--Sherwood
Mary bapt. 30 May 1709 m.--Meeker
David bapt. 1 Jan 1710
Moses
Aaron born 4 Jan 1716
Elizabeth m. --Hall
Hannah

Rev. Aaron BURR, from the above family, married 29 Jun 1752 Esther EDWARDS.

Their children were:

Sarah born 3 May 1754 m. Judge Tappan REEVE (Chief Judge of the Superior Court of Connecticut)

Aaron born 6 Feb 1756 m. 2 Jul 1782 Mrs. Theodosia Prevost of Paramus NJ.

Their only child was Theodosia born 1783.

I have from other sources that Theodosia died at an early age and had no children.

My ancestry comes from the Hartford branch, so I have not made a detailed study of Aaron and his family. Because I have been asked repeatedly about my relationship him, I have worked up a short one page biography of him. If you are interested, I will send it to you or put it on the FORUM.

Best wishes and happy hunting!

Don
