    Sometime in the early 1700s, William Frayser, immigrant from Scotland, possible Quaker, married Hannah Jackson of Virginia and settled in Henrico County. Their son, William Frayser, married Martha Burton, still in Henrico County. The Fraysers are pretty well documented, but not their wives. I would like to find the family of this Martha Burton of Virginia, and would be grateful for any information, please.
    Thank you,
    Anna

    Hello my name is Pete Violette and I’m researching a William Burton b. 1760 Dorsetshire, England; d. 1819 Northeast Margaree, Cape Breton. We have traced my Grandmother Josephine (Burton) Melville’s linage back to William. I am interested in learning more about the early history of this region and especially of the Burton family from that area. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You
