Hi Jackie. What year was your John born? I have been looking for my gggGrandfather John Burns for many years. I know he was born Nov 4, 1788 in NC /SC. He was in Bedford Co, TN (later became 3 counties, Marshall, Bedford and part of Maury). He married Margaret Wilson Oct 12, 1811 in Bedford Co. They had 9 children. I have a lot of information on this family, if we are connected I will gladly share. Please write and let me know, Thank you, Lorene Burns Noennig email [email protected]
