Andrew Burnham Ancestry.com Story View

DNA evidence links me as a moderately possible 5th to 8th cousins to someone with the following Burnham lineage: John Burnham 1617-1694(original immigrant) to Josiah 1662-1692 to Ebenezer 1691-1746 to Andrew 1726- 1787.


Been a little overwhelmed lately but future updates will tell the tale of the three Burnham boys shipwrecked in Maine while immigrating on the  Angel Gabriel.  Also looking for the account of the Burnham tapped by John Winthrop Jr. to travel with him to start the Connecticut Colony.  Will also post back here when there is more hard evidence to link us.  Next week, we start looking at his wife's original immigrant ancestors and the documentation there is very exciting.
