It is believed that Frances McKinney was born in Surrey (now Stokes) County, North Carolina Colony, in 1770.
She married Moses Burris about 1789. They had 12 children: James (1798-1848), William (1800-?), Phoebe (1801-?), Rachel (1802-?), Jonathan (1804-1857), Esther (1805-1863), Miles (1806-1870), Elizabeth "Betsy" (1808-1889), Mary (1813-1873), Daniel (1817-1849), Moses Jr. (1820-1862), and Rebecca (1824-?).
To date, neither Moses's nor Frances's headstone has been located. If present, they may have fallen over and been buried with the passage of almost 200 years. The cemetery has been neglected badly and there are numerous stones that have fallen over. The entire area is overgrown. Winter is probably the only time of year in which further stones could potentially be found, and perhaps only through the use of ground-penetrating radar.
