Dear Patricia,
After your previous message (4439 of 19 June 2002) I tried to find a link between Fanny Esther Burton and Thomas Burton Jr.So far I have not been able to find that link.Below you will find the data I have been able to find on the family of Thomas Burton and Susanna Milliken.I started collecting data on that family because they lived so close to my own Burton family, and I didn't want to get confused with the all the similar names.
Neither of your messages have mentioned the proof you might have that Fanny Esther was descended from Thomas and Susanna Burton.If you have birth registrations or christening records, I would be interested to know about them.
I have communicated with other descendants of this Burton family, and if you are connected to this family, I will happily give you their contact details.
I hope the information provided below can be of some help to you.As I find more information on this family, I will add it to my database and let you know.
