    • From DFHS index of PR entries (on FMP, viewed 10 Jan 2013) - William Burgoyne to Catharine Mumford

      The 1851 census suggest they may have had a dau Caroline - the census shows a 22 yr old Caroline living with her bro Wm and family. But I think this should probably be Catherine i.e. Sarah Catherine.
