Donna - This isn't concerning your music but rather a question about your family. Was Edgar F Burdick related to you. There was kind of an interesting article regarding the estate of Edgar and his Estate. He apparently died about 1900. Bob Betz the new Madison County Historian had an article in the Madison County Courier - Madison County News. Hope it might be of interest to you.
