William Henry Burges
CHILDREN
Bettie Rust Burges
William Henry Burges had 3 wives. His first, Bettie Rust Burges died young,
leaving four children (who eventually lived in El Paso). His 2nd, Agnes
Erskine had no issue. William and Mary Lou were married 18 Feb 1879. They
had 3 children. The last, Mary Lou Jefferson honored William's first wife by
naming her first born after her - Bettie Rust Burges (my husbands ancestor).
There is a site on the University of El Paso web that tells information about
William and his first wife's (Bettie's) children, as they were very prominent
in El Paso. I can't find the link at the moment but it isn't hard to find if
you are interested.
