His parents were Sarah Spellman Burnett (1831-1902) born in Ohio and John M Burnett (1830-1902) born in Indiana. They moved and lived in Jennings, Scott County, Indiana till their death. Their other children were: Columbus, Mary, Francis, F.M., and Adam. The family were farmers, but John Curtis became a mail carrier and married Myrle Bridwell (1880- 1930) around 1899 in Clay County, Indiana. They were divorced by the 1910 Census, it had four children together who were raised by Myrtle's father & mother, Hannah and Alfred Bridwell in Clay County. My grandmother, Lillian Mae, and her siblings were estranged with both their parents, but we don't know why. If you have any information about the Burnett family in Scott County, IN PLEASE help.
