Stephenson" To: "'BTRVETC-L'" Cc: Subject: RE: Peter H Burnett, 1st Gov. of CA Nyla and Pete-- I'm one of the few folks who is related to this line. Peter H. was a nephew of James Cunningham Burnett, from whom I am descended. Two likely candidates for the brother of Peter H. from whom Pete descended are James White Burnett, and George William Burnett, both of whom settled in, and were buried in, Oregon. Glen Owen Burnett settled in Polk County, Oregon for a time, and later went to California, so he should also be considered. I have nothing specific on a Marshal Phelps Burnett, but he's probably tied to this line somehow. If Pete will get in touch with me, maybe we can run it down.

In the mean time, can anyone help Pete with his Burnett line? Best wishes to all, Nyla Subj: Burnett/Turner, genealogy Date: 03/16/2000 4:55:00 PM Pacific Standard Time From: Pete1USA@aol.com To: NCreed1@aol.com Greetings! My name is Peter C. Burnett, a direct descendant of one of the brothers of Peter H. Burnett, 1st gov of CA. My great grandfather was Marshal Phelps Burnett, a rather famous Sheriff in Benton County Oregon, who busted up a lot of moonshine stills in the early 1900's. His father was one of Peter H. Burnett's brothers as best we can determine. I found on the internet a news group with your name on it. If you are the same person here on AOL, I would like to get in touch with you and others to find our roots and any distant relatives. I was born in Long Beach CA and am stationed at Fort Bragg, NC in the Army. Would like to hear from you if you are the right person. Thank you for any help. Sincerely, Pete ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 18 Mar 2000 11:11:37 -0500 From: "Eunice B.

Cousins, Does anyone know about a BENJAMIN GABRIEL BURNETT who married an ELIZABETH JORDAN? I have Vol 1 of BURNETTS AND THEIR CONNECTIONS, and the only one I can find is a GABRIEL BURNETT (without the Benjamin) on page 101 where it says GABRIEL BURNETT, son of RICHARD and MARY BURNETT was born by 1765 and that he is listed on the tax rolls in Dinwiddie County, Va in 1786. He was the brother of CARTER BURNETT. Anyone know more about this man? Thanks so much, Carole Caroline Burnett Cook -------------------------------- End of btrvetc-d Digest V00 Issue #10 *************************************
