Jesse Burgin was born 3 Apr 1803 and died 2 Feb 1890.  His wife, Rosamond Burgin, was born 26 Jan 1806 and died 11 Aug 1879.  They are buried at Bethel UMC-Old Cherry Springs Cemetery in Old Fort, North Carolina.  I believe that Jesse and Rosamond were first cousins, but I haven’t proven that yet.

Jesse’s sister, Malinda (Burgin) Hemphill, was my 4th great-grandmother.

Burgin genealogyOn this date in 1859, Joseph B. Burgin obtained a marriage bond to wed his first cousin once removed, Margaret E. Burgin1.  Their common ancestors were Benjamin Burgin and Leah Mann.

Joseph was Ben and Leah’s grandson, via their son Alney Burgin.  Margaret was Ben and Leah’s great-granddaughter; her father was Benjamin Logan Burgin and her grandfather was Major Ben Burgin.

Benjamin Burgin and Leah Mann are my 6th great-grandparents, making Joseph my first cousin 6 times removed and Margaret my 2nd cousin five times removed.  Margaret is also a step-cousin of mine on the Hemphill side; she is the granddaughter of Margaret Hemphill via Margaret’s first husband, James Young Dysart.  Margaret is my 3rd great-grandmother.
