(28) Findagrave.com, Name on headstone: Emma Burch. Event Notes Note (1) Birth date on headstone at first glance appears to be May 25 1808. But her age in census records consistently puts her birth in about 1803 or 1804. Closer examination of the headstone inscription leads to the conclusion that the birth year is most likely 1803. Note (2) Birth date given in marriage record as Apr 15 1824.
