Proof of the sibling relationship of Henry (Heinrich) and Herman Burke is derived from four sources: 1) Sarah Eugenia Jones/Burke/Bakers widow's pension file which contains an affidavit by Henry Burke living in Indianapolis. While this form initially seems to state that Henry is not a relative, a closer examination reveals a hand written line below the formal statement that clearly states that "Henry Burke is a brother". This line is in the same hand writing as the rest of the document; 2) A letter from his mother, Sarah Eugenia to Harry Eugene Burke, Sr. indicates that Herman had a brother living in Indianapolis, and the brother, she though, had a son named "Ed". This Henry Burke was the only Henry Burke found in Indianapolis. who indicated the he was from Hanover with a son named Ed. Family tradition also says that Herman came to the United States with at least one brother (perhaps two), that the brothers settled in Cincinnati before migrating to Indianapolis; 3) This Henry Burke and his wife were recorded on the 1850 U.S. Census in Cincinnati and then appear on the 1860 census in Indianapolis. 4) More reciently I recieved a DNA match from a woman who was decended from Henry Burke though the Donhost family line. While certainly not concrete, it seems sufficient to accept that the Indianapolis Henry who signed the affidavit is the same Henry (married to Henrietta) appearing on the 1850 and 1860 censuses and that he was actually Herman's brother.^14,15,16 In 1888 at Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana, were brothers came from fallowing General Affidavit that Henry made: "We were well acquainted with Herman Burke before and up to the date he enlisted in the Army - at that time he was a very stout able bodied young man". "Well remember that when he came home from the army he was __? used up in health, the then claimed that he had recieved a severe blow on the head while in the army which allmost used him up, that he had never had good use of himself since: He was at times partial paralyzed so that he could not work & he was run down by diarrhoria ____ his health was all gone down - He tried to work but could not stand it. He got some light work of watchman for a while, but he could not do any goode at work so after he was ___ two years he left and went west. For some time after he went west we heard of him as being down sick in hospital in Kansas for some time. We thn lost sight of claimant & did not hear of him again untill a few days ago - When claimant went west it was to try _____ improve his health." In the right hand margin the affidavit further states that "henry Burke is a brother."¹⁵

The William Duncan who married Isabella McCune may well have been Rebecca Duncan Kreamer's father. How ever, the David Duncan (probably Rebecca's grandfather), living with Rebecca and Jacob, at least based on the available census information, does not seem to have been the same David who fathered William. If William's age is reported correctly, the David living with the Jacob P. Cramer's would have been no more than 15 when William was born. While not impossible, not probable. Isabell is widowed by 1850 and living next to some of the McCune's in Cumberland County. She was certainly born before 1800. If the William she married was Rebecca's father, he was likely a lot younger than she and was certainly born after 1800.⁴
