Wa Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Wa/GraysHarbor/73 Surname: BURNS ------------------------- BURNS: I live in Tennessee, and I am in desperate need of information about a great-uncle that moved from Tennessee to the Hoquiam area of Grays Harbor County in the early 1900s. His name was Robert Burns (b. 1881 - d. 1925) and he is buried in Humptulips Cemetery. His wife, Mary E. (b. 1883 - d. 1966) is also buried there. An adjacent grave is listed as Oscar Leo Burns (b. 1917 - d. 1971), and I would assume that he was a son of Robert and Mary. I would like to have a copy of the 1920 Census listing this family, if possible. Also, any other information such as death records, Obituaries, survivors, etc. would be helpful. I will reimburse the cost of obtaining records, and a reasonable fee for someone's time in obtaining them for me. Only recently did I find out for sure where this family is buried, thanks to a gentleman from Tacoma whom I have been corresponding with via e-mail. Also, Robert's brother, Andrew Jackson Burns was killed in this area sometime around 1918-1920. I could also use any information that might be available about him. He possibly is buried in the same plot as his brother, but the grave is not marked. I talked with the caretakers of the Humptulips Cemetery in 1998, and they said they could find no record of Andrew's burial.
