I hohpe this is a current address for you. I am working on the families buried in the Methodist Cemetery described in your posting. One of the original founders was a Burrows so your post is of interest. He may have been the parents of your Robert Burrows as the cemetery was deeded in 1855 to twelve men of Tenleytown by William Murdock. Among those listed was a Meccia Burrows. We have been unable to locate him in the records and since our copy of the deed is a transcription of the original it could be a typo. Any help you can give us is appreciated. I also has family there. My sister, Audrey Schwartz has revitalized the Methodist Cemetery Association and is trying to get repairs and improvements done on the grounds. Margaret Amundson,
