Ada Marie Burney

  Research Notes:

NOTE: As can be seen reviewing the research notes, Ada Marie Burney, was married at least 6 times. All of the Ancestry Family Trees have only partial information or record many individuals as 'private', and because of this it is very hard to develop a modified chronological list for her.

I have not been able to determine all of the dates or locations of her marriages. It has also been difficult to find evidence of her children. But using the obituary for son Robert Lee Robertson, it seems that she was the mother of 6 children:
Charles Beatty, b 1942; Richard Lee Robertson, b 1944; James T Robertson, b 1946, Loretta Robertson, b 1948 [married ... Fogel of Richland, Benton Co, WA; Joanne Riley of Richland; Linda Babcoock of Arziona.

I have chosen to not record her marriages or her children on my Legacy Database. It is clear that more research will be needed:
- 1950 US Census
- additional newspaper archives [ newspapers.com does not have any detail on Richland or Kennewick WA; nor Lebanon, Linn Co, OR]
- possibly over time, more family researchers will identify more information.

Maggi FT \endash records Ada M Burney married to Charles Dean Ellis, b 22 Jun 1923 at Waurika, Jefferson Co, OK and died 17 Feb 1996 at Galveston TX
- notes 2 children
- but many records or links record [such CA Voters registration] his name as Charles Dean Beatty \endash why?
- his father as Cecil Thomas Ellis, 1903-1976 [??? ]and mother as Ella Gertrude Wood {1904-1949)
- Maggi FT does not indicate why
- Another FT ; Bustamaute FT [ marielise08], accessed 23 May 2021
records Cecil T Ellis died in 1926 and Charles Dean's mother had remarried in 1927 to Arthur Paul
Beatty (1906-1991, TX)
SO, this can explain the "double surname" Beatty \endash Ellis
- Also: Charles D Ellis (Beatty) was in the Navy, enlisted 28 Jan 1941 and discharged 5 Jan 1945
[BIRLS]
Bustamaute FT
Charles Beatty, b 1942

Eugene Swegle, b 21 Jun 1929, Ogle Co, IL; died 12 Oct 2018, Clyman, Dodge Co, WI
[maybe 100 kms to the north west of Milaukee]
records his marriage to Ada Marie Burney in 1953 and then his second marriage in 1954
- a second marriage to Joanne Joyce Huff (1936-2015) on 18 Dec 1954; 3 children from that marriage

It is unlikely that Ada Marie Burney and Eugene Swegle had a child

doesn't record the numerous marriages; only shows one spouse
BUT: records 6 children, all 'private' [very hard to determine how related] ?????
