Walter was born in 1625. He died about 22 Nov 1671 in Glenbervie based on Brechin Commissary Court records where his wife's name, Isobel Greig, is given. He was an ancestor of Robert Burns.[1][2]

Walter Burness was tenant of the farm of Bogjorgan in parish of Glenbervie, Kincardineshire. He died there in November 1670.[1] Since surviving Glenbervie Parish records begin in 1721, and no gravestone remains, the only documented information is his will. The old Churchyard at Glenbervie is where many of the Burness ancestors are buried
