Benjamin Burchett b. 1872 m. Susannah Herron/Hearne. They lived in Lawrence Cty, Ky. Later most of their family moved to Carter Cty. Ky. Susannah is buried a few miles from where I live. On her stone is: born 1777 died 1854. I am descended from them through their dau. Anna who married Pleasant Jordan. Their dau.Sarah married Levi Lyons, who were my g-grandparents. If your line is connected to this one, I would certainly like to know, as I do not have the names you mentioned in my files. Bill -----Original Message----- From: C.
