From "Early Days in New England, Life & Times of Henry Burt of Springfield and Some of His Descendants, Genealogical & Biographical Mention of James & Richard Burt of Taunton, Mass. and Thomas Burt, M.P. of England" (whew! what a title!), by Henry M. Burt and Silas W. Burt, published 1893, p. 501:
"Of James Burt's domestic relations, our information is quite limited. From the Plymouth records we learn that Anna, wife of James Burt, died August 17, 1665, and we are unable to state anything further about her. The oldest son was James, born probably in 1659. He also had a son Thomas, and a daughter Rachel, who married December 8, 1686, Aaron Knap of Taunton, and a daughter Hannah, who married _____ Hathaway. The date of his death is unknown, but his will, a copy of which is given herewith, was presented at Court March 2, 1680, (O.S.) The place of his burial is probably, like that of many others of the first settlers, an unmarked grave in the old "Neck o'Land" burying ground."
Does this help? Unfortunately, I only xeroxed a few pages from this book, and can't find much else useful about James Burt in it. (I descend from his son James2 and his wife Mary Thayer, thru their son Nathaniel3.) Good luck!
