    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Burns, Rhymes, Johnson, Martin, Stephens, Williams, Kite, Sampier, Crutcher, Narrid, Edes, Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/EhB.2ACE/1158 Message Board Post: " Father of Sallie Ann (Burns) Kite, who married Samuel Kite, son of Caswell Kite. Mr.Burns is buried in Burns Cemetery- He was Killed by 4 bad boys, Burns was the last one killed by these boys.(the four men were hung)" . Time slot sometime, after 1870. After the Killing Samuel and Sallie Ann moved to Erath County, to get away from there. Data from a letter written by a female relative of / and to/ James Caswell Kite(son of Stephen Caswell kite-Son of Caswell) In my thinking, I would like to know if the Murderers of MR. BURNS were hung by a Legal means or a necktie party? Also, I am thinking it was Burleson Co.TX. Does anyone know if there is a Burns Cemetery in Burleson Co.TX? However, I am guessing on the county-the Kites moved back and forth between, Milam, Burleson, Falls, Lee and Comanche, Bowie & Erath. Any ideas or thoughts on the Burns family appreciated.
