What time period and where did your Burgess' live? I have Burgess/Weddle families in the 1860's to 1900's in SD, MT, and MO that had women named Arizona and Nevada, and one of the men was Henry Montana. My
Weddle's are from VA, and even though many in our family think our grandmother and her sisters looked like they had native american blood, our Burgess' seem to have come directly west from NY. The stories persist in the family though, and sometimes you just cannot dismiss the possibility of some truth in 'old family stories' !!
