  • Notes 
    • Her name, as listed in John BURTs will, is VERY muddied and nearly indeciphrable (copy of original). However, it does begin with an "Fru" and could read Frusanna or Franciana - both are names used in that area at that time.

      Speculation on the identity of John BURT Sr's wife:
      Perhaps maiden name JONES.
      1. His son Young BURT appeared to have a middle name that may have been JONES on the will of his brother that he witnessed along with a Darling JONES.

      2. Inventory below of William JONES estate lists John BURT Sr.

      (This Joshua/Josiah PERRY had a sister named Frusanna PERRY. She is said to have been born CA 1748, but could have been born earlier. She might be John Burt's 2nd or later wife too.)
