Alexander BURNS of Bolton If anyone has connections with Mr or Mrs Alexander Burns of Bolton Twp, or any of their 10 children, would you please contact me? I have found a tutorship for the children, which lists all their names & ages - as well as the 4 or 5 men called together to choose a "tutor" & "sub-tutor" for the children. Mr Burns was sentenced to death & hanged in Sept 1861. All I can find on the internet is the date that Mr Burns was put to death. Will be checking the newspapers for more info. My interest in this family stems from the tutorship (first one ever found for a condemned man's family) & it will be published in our QFHS journal, along with a capsule sized article about whatever is found in newspapers. If a descendant is on this list, I'd be very interested in knowing if the children grew up in the Eastern Twps with the "tutor" or in Vt with the "sub-tutor" & whether they kept the surname of Burns throughout life.
