One subscriber had this to say: "Morton made lot of mistakes.

Dad's line is Francis Meadows; many mistakes.

Mom's line is WILLEY, (EBER). Also many mistakes."

BURDETTE: death date for William Burdette may be 1839 instead of 1836. His second wife was Jane Scott. His son MIles married Elizabeth Jane Legg. I have a different husband for his daughter Rachel. His son John married Eleanor Swope. I have his daughter Ruth married to James, not John, Roberson. I have his daughter Eliza married to John Amick. (Is this right?) His son Lewis married Hannah Hedrick. The story about the wife of Isham is not really about her, but I can't remember which one's wife it is about. I don't believe the children of either Isham or Alexander are correct. I don't know if the information about Giles is correct or not. Basically, do not use Morton as a source for Burdette!
