Profile states Burgess-19 and Burgess-504 are twins but there is no data to back it up. The 1871 and 1881 census lists 1 child and only found 1 birth record. I believe there is confusion in the transcriptions of the spelling of the name. Any ideas how to resolve this?

Hi Nancy,

I found two birth records for these twins. But no further records for Marietta. Maybe she died young or had to be institutionalized. I will try to research this further.

Burgess-19 and Burgess-504 do not represent the same person because: They are twins per profile

Burgess-19 and Burgess-504 - bio states these are twins. can only find 1 birth and 1 child listed on census for 1871, 1 marriage and 1 death. no reference to Mauetta. If no objections will merge.
