Note: EBENEZER8 BURT (JOSEPH7, JOTHAM6, JOTHAM5, ABEL4, JR. RICHARD3, SR. RICHARD2, HENRY1) was born August 08, 1783 in Washington Co; PA, and died January 08, 1836 in Cardington, Marion Co; Ohio. He married SARAH LEONARD Abt. 1807 in Prob. Green Co; Pennsylvania, daughter of LOT LEONARD and ELIZABETH HOGE. She was born 1790 in Greene Co; PA, and died August 12, 1849 in Cardington, Morion Co; Ohio. Notes for EBENEZER BURT: Ebenezer Burt, b. 1783, Justice of the Peace for Canaan Township, in Marion County (now Morrow County). Ebenezer left Somerset Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, around 1824. 1806-1807 Somerset Tp Washington County tax list Ebenezer appears on the single freemen list with brother William and father Joseph (tanyard and 50 acres) The 1807-1808 list notes that Joseph, William, and Ebenezer are all in the Hills voting district. (Would like to know where that is!) This list also says that Ebenezer is a shoemaker (like the father). All three of them, plus John Burt, appear on the married list in 1808-1809 (and this time it is Ebenezer who was written on the Single list and then noted as married). Ebenezer is noted with 57 acres of land in 1816-1817 and noted N.R. (non resident? did the family go to Greene after the death of Sarah's mother?) also 1817-1818. He returned in 1818-1819 (N.R. written but crossed out). He had only 36 acres by 1819 tax list. Found in 1820 census. Had only 35 acres in 1822 and his land transferred to Odbert in 1823 (in preparation for his move to Ohio). This is several years past the date of death often ascribed to him. Next found in tax lists of Canaan Township Marion Ohio 1827 (cattle but no land) and 1830 census, town of Denmark. (Remember there was a grace period of several years after immigrating when no taxes were levied.) Probably living on/near lands of Zenas, Isaac, George Leonard, his wife's brothers and sister's husband. He was Justice of the Peace 1832-1835 at least. Close friend was Samuel Fuller. In 1833 he was one of the Trustees of the Methodist Episcopal Church as they purchased a small lot from John S. Garoutte to erect a church. The deed was not filed until June 1836, after he died. From Lou Burt's notes: "[Lou's] grandfather, Ebenezer Burt, and his grandfather's brother, William Burt, moved from Washington County Pa to New Denmark, Columbiana County, in or about 1815. [Note: Lou was confused. I believe William at least moved to Columbiana, but Denmark--now Mt Gilead--is in Morrow County, then Marion County, and that is where Ebenezer settled, about 1825.] The grandfather died suddenly, while hunting."
