My great grandmother was married to Mr. Burleigh and had five daughters during the marriage. The family story handed down is that Mr. Burleigh supposedly went west to find better work and had promised to invite the rest of the family to join him when established. It is my understanding he was never heard from again. His wife, Catherine then raised the five daughters alone, and each daughter helped put the next through college. - David
