Diane, Is this a German surname? The reason I ask is that experience has taught me that name could be Burkett, Birkett, Berkit, Burkatt, etc. There are no Purgett entries in the marriage index which runs from 1799-1800. There are however, BURKETT (BURCKITT) entries for grooms including Philip, Jacob, William , John some more than one entry. There are also BURKARD/BURKART/BURCKHARTT spelling variations. There are no entries under that spelling in estate distributions which run from 1778-1805 and nothing in the newspaper extractions that I have which run from 1799 to about 1830. Nothing in volumes II and III of the cemetery records. I can't spot the name anywhere.
