Helen: YES, it is potentially VERY MEANINGFUL!!!! Conrad BURGET, an early town official in Davenport, Delaware Co., NY [ca. 1815] who m. Huldah ROWE [who presumably was b. in Schoharie], d. 3 Feb 1819 [age 40] and was buried in the SMITH Family Burying Ground in the Davenport area. When I went to site for the SMITH Family Burying Ground on the Delaware Co., NY USGenWeb, Conrad was the only non-SMITH buried there!!!! I was seeking a connection between the BURGET/SMITH families in this area, and this is probably it. If there is a date available for the marriage of Hermance SMITH and Kate BURGETT, it could tell us that perhaps Kate BURGETT might have been either a sister or daughter of Conrad BURGETT. I am researching the possibility that Conrad BURGET was one of the older sonS of the Hendrick BURGHARDT/BURGET listed as a Head of Household in the 1790 Federal Census in Kortright, Montgomery Co., NY and the 1800 Federal Census in Kortright, Delaware Co., NY. I also believe that Hendrick BURGET to have been a younger brother of my ancestor, Jehoiakim BURGHARDT, Sr. Both Hendrick and Jehoiakim served in the 9th Regiment of the Albany Co., NY Militia. Thanks for looking again!!
