    Hi, 

    My name is Dave Burton from Staffordshire. i was wondering if anyone can help me, I'm currently trying to trace my family back. I've got back to the Burtons of Buckminster Hall and then back to Longnor Hall in Shropshire. does anyone know if the two Burton familys are connected.

    Many thanks for your help

    Dave.

    Just to let everyone know, I finished my research on my Burton line and it is published on Amazon in a book that also includes my Melvin/Melville line. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/197648507X?pf_rd_p=c2945051-950f-...

    Hello -hope someone can help me fill in the gaps of my Burton family.

    I have traced them back to Edward Burton 1781-1842 who lived in Walsall, Birmingham. His father may be Thomas Burton c.1740 of Lichfield but this where I am stuck. There may be a connection with the Longnor or Royds Mill Burtons but cannot fill the missing gaps.

    Also my great great grandfather was Frederick Marshall Burton who was vice consul to US in Birmingham from 1897-1904. I have been desperately trying to find a photo of him and more info.

    If anyone out there can help I would be extremely grateful.
