    Notes:

    Burdett, Frank A., Lake City, grain dealer, is among the early
    residents of Wabasha county. His grandfather, Ebenezer Burditt (born
    in Lancaster, Massachusetts, 1761), was a revolutionary soldier and
    served on a colonial privateer. Abel, son of the latter, was born in
    Gilsum, New Hampshire, January 20, 1790. Bethsheba Gibson, daughter of
    another revoluntionary hero, born in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, in
    1785, married Abel Burdett, died April 6, 1866, in Lake City. Her
    husband died in Zumbro, this county, April 18, 1858. This couple dwelt
    many years in Grafton, Vermont, where was ushered into the world, July
    18, 1821, the person whose name heads this paragraph. During the early
    years of the latter, he spent some time at the common school, and
    subsequently managed the farm while his father dealt in stock. The
    farm was exchanged for hotel property, and Frank was his father's
    assistant in conducting the house for fourteen years. April 24, 1846,
    he was united in wedlock with Miss Jeannette Mack, whose parentage is
    elsewhere given with that of her brother, J. R. Mack. Windham,
    Vermont, is Mrs. Burdett's native place. Mr. Burdett spent over two
    years in California, at mining and other occupations, with moderate
    success. Returning to Vermont in 1855, he took up a permanent
    residence in the west next year, arriving in Columbia county,
    Wisconsin, in July. In the fall of 1857 he came to Zumbro and engaged
    in farming there four years. Removed to Lake City in the fall of 1861,
    and began to deal in produce. At. one time he had four warehouses in
    operation, one being at Stockholm, across the lake, and has been
    signally successful. He served the town of Zumbro two years as
    assessor, and Lake City one year; was also justice of the peace in
    Zumbro. He adheres to democratic principles of government, and is
    orthodox in religious faith. Mr. and Mrs. Burdett have one son, now
    thirty seven years of age, named Frank D. When eighteen he entered the
    Union army, and served about a year. When he went from home he weighed
    one hundred and sixty pounds, and on his discharge weighed, with
    soldier overcoat, just half as much. His home is now in LaCrosse. The
