    William Burns [III] (born February 14, 1793, the eldest child [but see below] of William Burns [Jr.] and Magdalena Van Metre) married Jane Marshall (born January 17, 1790, the daughter of William Marshall) on August 28, 1817 in Jefferson County VA.  In 1838 they sold their plantation, freed their slaves, and brought their family to Ohio, where William "bought two square miles of land on Old National Road, east of New Carlisle...  Four small lakes on rear—'Crystal Lakes.'"  William died on January 22, 1856 in Medway and was buried in the New Carlisle Cemetery; Jane did not join him there for many years, living till December 17, 1880.
