• Notes

  Notes provided by Claire Burnett: Per Aunt Ann Parker 1987 - "I could not remember the old lady that she did not scare me with her cock and parrot and SELF!  She was always saying, "Don't you touch that Anna Burnett!!" She was Frances Jaggar who married George Hubert Burnett after his 3 whale expos and his staking out gold claims in Sacramento - but she would not go west with her young man, so he bought the farm in Brookhaven, sprang from the Hamptons ...tho she was supposed to be most beautiful and a wonderful dancer there, she looked like a scary old witch to me", and I can see how I am on the same unprimrose path!!!!" "Mrs. Frances M. Burnett, widow of George Burnett, died Tuesday at the home of her son, Isaac Burnett, in Brookhaven, being 97 years old.  Despite her great age she was until very recently an active woman and was a familiar figure to passerbys working in her garden on Beaver Dam Road.  The funeral is to be held this afternoon at 2 o'clock from the house with service in charge of the Rev. Frederick E. Allen and interment in the Woodland Cemetery, Bellport." Mrs. Burnett was born at Westhampton October 10, 1826, daughter of Enoch (Jagger) and Phebe Conklin.  She made her home in Brookhaven many years. She leaves four sons, Isaac, Hubert, and Theron of Brookhaven and Jefferson of Flushing and a daughter, Mrs. Hand of Bridgehampton. " (From the scrapbook of Mr. D.W. Talmage - East Hampton Library - Vol. #1)

It is not clear whether the date in the obituary is the date of publication of the newspaper or the date of death -- April 15, 1924 being a Tuesday. Since the funeral "is to be held this afternoon" I believe the date of newspaper publication is probably after April 15, perhaps the following Thursday (Thursday being a popular date for publishing weeklies), and that the April 15 date is the actual date of death.] [S375] Claire Burnett, compiler, Descendants of Thomas Burnett (Lafayette Hill, PA: Unpublished manuscript, 2008).
