| DataFly: There's a marriage between Keturah Burne and Robert Young at St Mary's Church, Bromley St Leonard, on the 27th July, 1836. I think Keturah died on the 1st March, 1872. |

| DataFly: It is unlikely that the date of death given by the BCM, 2nd February, 1922, is correct, as he was buried on the 1st February. His probate gives a date of 27th January, 1922. See: https://www.familysearch.org/tree/p... |
