Hi folks,
I have more to report on the search for James Cunningham Burnett's
original farm in Shelby County, Kentucky.
As you read in the last message I sent, I believe that the 1882 Atlas map
reference to "J.J. Burnett residence" is where the original farm was
actually located, rather than the "J.C. Burnett res., spring, and cem."
notation near Mt. Eden. I have found further evidence to support this
conclusion.
Felix Grundy Burnett, who inherited part of the original farm and
purchased the rest from the other heirs, moved to Missouri between 1850 and
1853. He died in Missouri.
I have discovered a copy of a deed dated March 5, 1851, in which Felix and
Joanna Burnett, Samuel H. and Elizabeth (Dodd) Burnett, and Peyton R.
Burnett conveyed 158 1/2 acres, and presumably the house, to their brother,
James Cunningham Burnett, Jr. (husband of Permelia Shepherd). The other 194
acres was probably either kept by the family or sold to someone else. The
reference to "J.J. Burnett" is to John Jay Burnett, James Cunningham Burnett
Jr.'s son, who was the executor of his father's estate, and most likely
lived at the residence in 1882. It is highly likely that the "J.J. Burnett
res." referred to on the 1882 map is the original home of James Cunningham
Burnett(1776-1839).

Hello Family and friends
I want to thank everyone that offered to help me find some of the info
I lost but today I was going throw my files throwing out junk when
something told me to look at a file listed under a few letters and
numbers, well it was all the text I lost no photos but I did have the
text, it was the best gift I got for Christmas. It took me 5 years to
get it and a second to wipe it off the computer (I thought)
So once more thank you all that offered to help me.
Jerry Baker
