A Burgin-Burgin Wedding

September 20, 2011 Tonia Kendrick

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.

About Tonia

Hi, I am Tonia Kendrick. Genealogy is my hobby, my passion (those who say obsession would not be accused of crazy-talk). While I had helped my mom with genealogy as a teenager, I first caught the bug myself when computers came into the picture.

Now we are well into the 21st-century and every day brings a new genealogy adventure, whether it is a new record group to explore online or a visit to a cemetery, courthouse, or other repository. It all comes together here. Read more about Tonia's Roots or contact Tonia. Read More…
