Biography

Jonathan Burnham was born about 1697. According to the book Genealogical Records of Thomas Burnham, The Emigrant, page 125, he was baptized 26 February 1697.[1] He was the son of John Burnham.

According to the referenced book, Jonathan Burnham married Hannah Bidwell on 12 November 1727 (specific source not provided).[1][2] It's believed they had four known children (the following first three children, including birth and death dates, were listed in the Genealogical Records of Thomas Burnham, The Emigrant, but Violet was not:

  1. Jonathan Burnham (10 October 1728 - 15 January 1750)
  2. Abijah Burnham (15 January 1732 - 30 May 1750)
  3. Noah Burnham, born 30 October 1741, according to the referenced book. His death age "2 years six months 7 days" was inscribed on his tombstone, which means his birth date was 9 November 1743. He died 16 May 1746.
  4. Violet Burnham (c. 1735 - 10 Jun 1808)

Jonathan, age 90, died 17 February 1787 and is buried in Buckland Cemetery (originally called Northwest), Manchester, Hartford County, Connecticut.[1][3][4][5]
