I'm looking for someone who might know where Job came from and who his parents were. Job was the first Burnham to settle in Machias. He was there in 1770 and built the Burnham Tavern that same year. The Tavern still stands. Job married Mary O'Brien, daughter of Morris O'Brien and sister of the six famous O'Brien brothers. I would like to hear from someone who knew of Job before he showed up in Machias. He might have come from Scarborough, Maine.
