From “The Burns Family History - 1894”
by Calvin Alex Burns (1826-1896)

“Our grandfather and grandmother Burns had lived...in their little home on the mountainside contented with their lot, were warmhearted, religious old people, until the Fall of 1829 when they were about 80 years old, they were both stricken down with pleurisy or pneumonia, and our grandfather died about November and our grandmother about Christmas. They were both buried near their little home, which is now a beautiful cedar grove. At the same graveyard, our Uncle Alex, Aunt Crecy, their daughter Eliza, and no doubt others of the family of Uncle Alex. Peace to their memory.”
