Binney; but no evidence appears. The fam. of two syl. was early at
the same town, and it may be that some ambitious possessor of the
shorter name may have stretch. it.

Aug. 1653, by w. Ann, d. of Benjamin Wilmot, wh. in his will of
7 Aug. 1669, speaks of the four ch. of his d. as heirs of pt. of his
small est. so that it may be inf. that both d. and h. with one of the

    BURBANK, CALEB, Rowley 1691, may have been s. of John. JOHN,
Rowley, freem. 13 May 1640, in his will of 5 Apr. 1681 (as Coffin finds,

16 Apr. 1660, Sarah Gould, had Mary, b. 2 July 1661; John, 9 Aug.

    BURCHAM, EDWARD, Lynn, 1636, frem. 14 Mar. 1639, was clk.
of the writs 1645, went home 1656, and I kn. not whether he came back.
His d. Frances m. 8 June 1660, Isaac Willy. Twice in Hist. Coll. of the Essex
Inst. I. pp. 5 and 10, this name is giv. Burthum, and this error is more observa.

hand resembles our modern t. Suspicion aris. also, that the same man may be
passing under the name of Beacham, wh. see.
