T. e.Aug. 16, '61, died at Ironton, Mo., Nov. 7, '61. In the 1850 Cenusus of Logan County book I have..page 40: Birks,William 30 M Ky Farmer 1200 Residing at same location as John Huston Family 362-366. Since I found no other William Burke on 1850 cenus, I figured this may be him just the cenus taker or transcriber spelled it differently. I checked other resources I have didn't find anything more. Good luck, if you get more info post it. Barb Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
