at one point did a great grandfather marry a Burt? I can't seem to figure this out. Was Richard Burt II married in MA?

Where was William Austin Burt born? Do you have his ancestry going back to dunfermline? My sister just got back from visiting Scotland. She'd been interested in learning this too!

Thanks,

Scotland / Burt family Dumfermline / Edinburgh - research tips.

My maternal grandfather was a Burt - we are in Utah but my great grandfather came from Dalry, Scotland and did ornamental plastering which trade he learned in Scotland in a style that had been brought by Italians to the island sometime earlier. His father was born in Wick and his father from Edinburgh. He made shoes. We believe his father came from Dunfermline. Would love to learn from others how to maximize our research efforts while in Scotland.
My Burts immigrated to UTAH in the 1870s.

Scotland / Burt family Dumfermline / Edinburgh - research tips.
« on: Sunday 15 June 14 03:17 BST (UK)  »
Hello Burt Researchers,

My Burt research takes us back to Dunfermline. Having visited Scotland once a few years ago, we have started trying to put together Burt families and are hoping to see if and how we connect. We know our Burts were shoemakers in Edinburgh but the clues point to their coming from Dunfermline.

If you have any tips for us in planning a trip to Dunfermline that could unravel some of this mystery we'd appreciate it.

We have done some DNA testing on  other family lines and wonder if you've ever tried that?

Best,
Jan
