    3. Greetings: I have been having a lot of trouble with my Burnett line from New York State. I have a several page list of names for 10 Generations. The 11th generation would be my GGgrandmother and I can pretty much prove out generations 10,9 and some of 8 -- but beyond that I can find no one on this list. ANY help would be greatly appreciated! This is some of what this paper has to say --- I have no idea who compiled it!. Generation 1: George Alexander Bournet b. 1550 married Elset MacKelt 1578 NE of Glasgow, Scotland. they had 11 children. Generation 2; Jalone MacKelt Bournet b 1582 married Hepzah Fitzhugh in 1602. After she died Jalone and son James Surrey b. 1607 came to America with Fitzhugh uncle in 1622. Generation 3: James S. Burnet married Reta Greene they had 16 children - one was named Jeremiah who married Ruth Shipley and moved to virginia. My line is Samuel Generation 4: Samuel T.Burnet b. 1635 (says wife is Mary Pearson but I believe this is wrong) had 8 children Generation 5. Jonathan b. 1668 married Esther Babodie (maybe Pabodie) They had 7 children: Daniel, Margot, Jacob, Mary, George, James, Charles Generation 6: James Burnet b.1695 married Annaheld Dennelse 1719 They had 7 children: Margaret, George C. William, Josiah, Peter, John, Edward. Generation 7: Josiah William Burnet b 1726 married Sarah Clark Young They had 6-10 children - my line being David George Generation 8:George or David George Burnett b. 1759 married Maria Schurtz and I believe lived in Green County, NY and then Dutchess County.They had John Isaac, Isaac, Maria and Josiah William. Generation 9 - Josiah W.b. 1799 married Alida Sipperly and had 7 children most of whom seem to have remained in Dutchess County. - Rhinebeck area. MY LINE - Isaac b. 1802 married Catharine Cole and moved to Ulster County. Their children were Isaac, John, Martha, Sophia, and Catherine. Generation 10 - my line Isaac, b. 1839 married Sarah Miller. Can anyone help me prove this long list or steer me in the right direction? Do any of these name sound familiar to anyone?????? Thank you for any help you can give me.
