John, am glad to learn more about Burnham Clinton Estes, I cannot connect him yet but surely there is a connection. Burnham Leroy had a brother, Clyde Maurice Estes who married Crystal Perkins in Auburn in 1928. I am sending a few things about Burnham Leroy that may differ from your information. I will stick to just B.L at this time and get to other Burnhams later. Burnham Leroy Estes born St. Albans, Somerset, Maine 21 Aug 1891, son of Vinal, 47, born Carmel, Penobsot,Maine and Blanche L. Luce, born in St. Albans, Maine. The birth was reported by Fred H. Luce of Cambridge, Somerset,Maine, brother of Blanche. (copy of delayed return of birth, State of Maine, clerk of St. Albans). He died in Pittsfield, Maine, 3 March 1969 77 years old (Maine death index). SSDI has him born 21 Aug 1891 and died Mar 1969 with Unity zipcode. (Post Office had a Star Route for those who lived between the Unity and Troy post offices and the address was Unity.) I have not yet obtained a copy of the death certificate. (His sister, Blanche, had a Star Route address.) I have a copy of his obit, Burnham L. Estes, with address line Wellington, Maine, died at the hospital in Pittsfield.
