  • Notes 
    • We think the maiden name of Rebecca who married Fleming Burke, Senior, might have been "Miller". I need to do direct research in Russell County, in southwestern Virginia. (Note: The 1850 census of Russell County, Virginia which contained his son, Fleming Burke, Junior, covers all of what now is Wise, Dickenson, and a large portion of the Southwestern section of Buchanan County. The suggestion that Rebecca's surname might be "Miller" came from Mary E. Skelton (Marietta, Georgia), a descendant of John Burke and Rebecca Vermillion. In the new database on internet from the Latter Day Saints, IGI Batch F867132, Sheet 27, Fleming Burk, born about 1807 in Russell Co., VA; Father, Fleming Burk; Mother, REBECCA MILLER".
