Birth: Approximations from 1850 and 1860 censuses. 1850 Census, Union township, Appanoose Co. Serial # 2623 pt. 1. 1860 Census, Iowa Union township, Appanoose Co. Serial # 80331. Sarah Burlet was shown as the mother of Julia or Juliett Smith on the marriage certificate for Julia or Juliett when she was married to her second husband: Edward M. Clifton in Clay County, Nebraska. The name Burnet, Burnett, or Burnit appears on IGI records of children. Spelled Burnet in Ancestral file where birth is 14 Sep 1816 and death date is 18 Jun 1901.

IGI lists a Sarah E. Burnette, born 14 Sep 1816, Ohio, died 18 Jun 1901. I have chosen the IGI record of Sarah L. Mrs. Smith because it has a birth date closer to the one repeatedly in the census records and she is sealed to Philip Smith with the right birth date.
