Notes for Dorothy (---)

 POSSIBLE SURNAME OF DOROTHY, WIFE OF THOMAS BURGESS:

     A Thomas Burgess and a Dorothy Waynes were married in Tanfield, York,

          England, in 1628, according to a record from "Paver's Marriage Licenses" as listed in the Yorkshire Archaeological Journal, Vol. 20, Pg. 74, 1909.

     Winifred Lovering Holman's "Burgess Lineage, 1957-1958," a typescript in the New England Historic-Genealogical Society library, gives Dorothy Phippen as being the wife of this Thomas Burgess.

POSTING TO BURGESS ARCHIVES by AlRose509_AT_aol.com:

Following e-mail from Dean Burgess Here is where the Thomas Burgess debate now stands.

A Thomas Burgess did marry Dorothy Waynes, but Paul Burgess, who will probably also reply to you, hired a British genealogist to trace this marriage record and the couple had no children. We know Dorothy Burgess was not a Waynes. While I was in Cornwall I traced all of the children of the Rev. George Phippen (all of the records still exist) and found he had no daughter named Dorothy. The origin of this name as her maiden name comes from the fact that Thomas Burgess of Truro (widely believed to be Thomas of Sandwich MA's father) calls George Phippen his "brother-in-law" in his will. Records show he was his brother-in-law, but that was because George Phippen married, as his second wife, Thomas Burgess's wife's sister.Thomas's wife was Elizabeth Pye. We know Dorothy Burgess was not a Phippen.
