• FamilySearch ID: KG9P-KVN
• Name: John Robert BURT
• _UID: 6FE82F3FDF8446D98897ACAB97C58918BA5F

Notes:

A John BURT who's family composition appears to match what would be Capt. John BURT and Delia LANE BURT's family is listed in the 1830 & 1840 Morgan Co., AL Censuses. Additionally, there are no records that would match a John BURT in NC after about 1814 when a Capt. John BURT of Cumberland CO., NC is listed as serving in the War of 1812.

John BURT and family may be listed in the 1820 Cumberland Co., NC census along with his cousins Young and James BURT.

We know that Delia's parents and siblings all relocated to Morgan Co., AL - they are also in the census records, and many of their burial sites were found (including those of Joseph & Pherebe LANE, Delia's father and mother). To date (as of 1/31/99), the gravesites of John and Delia have not been located by this researcher in published volumes of Morgan Co. Cemeteries. Death dates are from Family Bible records. (6/30/2000)

A Delia BURT is listed in the household of a Wm. H. BURT in 1850.

[Capt. Jno. BURT b. ca 1780 age 50 in 1830; wife Delia (LANE) b. 1785, age 45 in 1830 - also listed in the 1850 census - son Joseph b. ca 1815 age 15 in 1830; son Henry b. ca 1820 age 10; if John L. son, b. ca 1821 age 9; son (if William H.) b. ca 1822, age 8; apparently some daus. Too. This family matches except for one son. The sons assumed are families from the 1850 Morgan Co. census. One or more could be sons of Hardy or James BURT. Later census records show Joseph BURT as a Physician. It would be plausible that Joseph may have been away studying medicine at the age of 15 and would not have been living at home.

Cumberland County of the War of 1812

This list was abstracted from Muster Rolls of the Soldiers of the War of 1812 Detached from The Militia of North Carolina in 1812 and 1814 from the Adjutant General's office.
These are names of soldiers who are identified as being in regiments from Cumberland County. Just because your ancestor is not listed here and lived in Cumberland County does not necessarily mean that he did not participate. Be sure to check the index at the rear of the book.

Notes:

Presuming these are children of John & Delia BURT - 1850 census shows Delia BURT living with Wm. H. BURT and the other boys all nearby. Especially note the name 'Paschal' in the family of John L. BURT. This is a particular name of the Wake Co., NC BURTs, of which Capt. John BURT is one.

Note: A Deler BURT buys land in Morgan Co. AL in 1860. The original copy actually says 'Deler' , but it also is distinctly written in "her" heirs assigns, etc. However, she would have been 74 in 1860...Believe this must have been Delia BURT. It's possible there was a single daugher, but no record of this is in the 1850 census.

A Delia BURT is not, however, in the 1860 census, which was taken in August in the area where her sons lived. She must have died between Jan and Aug of 1860.

Naming patterns: Delia Lane BURT's father was Joseph LANE, would follow that she might name an eldest son after her father. "Henry" has no known anticedenet - of all the BURT's shown in the census, this one is most highly suspect as being of another family. "John L.", guess it stands for John Lane BURT - after both his father and his mother, "William Hardy", Capt. John had brother named Hardy. William runs in all the BURT families...

Other deeds recorded involving his brothers and father in Chatham Co., NC

Earliest deed referring to John Burt Jr. and Sr. is in 1771 - presumably that would make Jr. born abt. 1750 (to be 21 yrs. old).

Wake County May Term 1824
The [within?] last will and testament of John Burt Senr. was duly proven in open court by the oath of Young Burt Witness [unto?] and ordered to be recorded. B. [J.?] [?] C. C.

John Burt (b. cir 1750) sold land to his father, John Burt Sr. who died in 1780 in Chatham Co., NC.

Signed: John Burt, Jr

Presumably, after the death of John BURT, then referred to as Sr., in 1780 - this John BURT, previously recorded on deeds as "Jr." then changed to "Sr.", probably when his own son John BURT was old enough to sign documents. (Son b. abt 1780 would be 21 in 1801)

John married Priscilla SENTER, Hardy about 1778 in Wake County, North Carolina. Priscilla (daughter of Stephen W. SENTOR and Susan Leigh STEPHENS) was born in 1760 in Wake, North Carolina, British Colony; died in 1820 in Fuquay-Varina, Wake County, North Carolina. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events:

• FamilySearch ID: KD1P-9YS
• _UID: 94D3CEF751FF4983A4C55113B6C94C27075C

Notes:

There is no proof that Priscilla's last name is SENTER. There is a SENTER family in Wake Co. in the 1790 NC census.

With a son named HARDY, I would more likely bet that Priscilla's maiden name might be that. Also, two grandsons used the name "William HARDY BURT"

Notes:

eldest son b. abt 1780
