Burnham born 1721 in Ipswich, Essex, MA, USA (son of Thomas Burnham born Sept. 30, 1673 in Ipswich, Essex County, MA; died Dec. 16, 1748, [son of John Burnham 1648 - 1704 and Elizabeth Wells 1646 - 1731] & Susanna Thomas Boardman, born Apr. 5, 1681; died 1748).

Hannah Burnham born 1700 in Ipswich, Essex, MA USA (daughter of John Josiah Burnham & Sarah Choate), died June 4, 1777 in Ipswich, Essex, MA, USA. She married Nathan Burnham November 22, 1744.
Indian scouts reported seeing Braddock's army advancing in three columns toward the Monongahela River. Commander de Beaujeu decided to intercept them there. Along with six hundred Frenchmen and Indians, Langlade marched to the Monongahela and concealed themselves in dense ravines along the river.
Nathan Burnham was first lieutenant, fourth company, Third Provincial Regiment of Foot, and was killed in Braddock's defeat.
Braddock's Defeat was part of the Battle of the Wilderness during the French and Indian War. With 1,400 British regulars and 500 colonial troops, 45 year old General Edward Braddock meant to drive the French out of Fort Duquesne, which they had built on the site of the present city of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. After drilling his combined force at Fort Cumberland, Braddock marched into the Allegheny wilderness in June 1755. His advance was cautious and in good order, with the pioneers (engineers) hacking a road 12 feet wide through the virgin forest. Built on an old Indian trail, the road was widened and surfaced to accommodate both wagons and cannon. While the axe-men hacked the road, clearing as they went, often no more than four miles could be covered.
Indian scouts reported seeing Braddock's army advancing in three columns toward the Monongahela River. Commander de Beaujeu decided to intercept them there. Along with six hundred Frenchmen and Indians, Langlade marched to the Monongahela and concealed themselves in dense ravines along the river.
On the morning of July 9th, Lt. Colonel Thomas Gage was ordered to lead a strong advance party across the river. The British had been forced to ford the river twice to avoid a narrow defile and were in engaged in a short skirmish at the second crossing with some thirty Indians who fled. Now they were in more open country, woods rather than thick forest. Waiting for them was Beaujeu, who had great difficulty in persuading his Indians to stay. Like them, he and his men were stripped for action and painted.
Braddock's men marched on. Suddenly, Beaujeu appeared, turned and waved his hat to the men behind him. He was killed almost at once, but the French and Indian losses were small. The redcoats swung from their columns into line as bullets tore into them from the trees. Braddock had four horses shot from under him, while trying to rally his troops. He was shot through the lungs while mounting the fifth horse, and while his troops scattered, the Indians charged after them with tomahawks and scalping knives. In horrible pain Braddock lingered four days, then his body was buried in the middle of the military road. The troops marched over the site so the Indians would not find and mutilate the body. In the end 977 of the 1,459 British and Provincial army, including 63 of the 86 officers, were killed.
From a letter, written in 1983 by Vincent L. Heim, the following was shared ..."Nathan Burnham, Sr. was a Captain of a Company that was sent out with about 200 men to fight the French and Indians at the Battle of Cataragna or Cararaqui across Lake Ontario where Kingston, Ontario, Canada now stands. The attack was led by Lt. Col. Broadstreet of the English Army. This battle took place on 27 Aug 1758. Nathan, Jr. was reported to have been with this unit as a waterboy. He was about 11 years old at the time and was with his father when his father was killed.

Where Cobourg stands today was once cedar swamp. As a result, the town was slower in becoming established than some of the adjacent centres along Lake Ontario. A few settlers had arrived, however, as early as 1798. Among them were four Burnham brothers, Asa, Zaccheus, John and Mark, who with their sister Hannah emigrated from New Hampshire. In the ensuring years, the Burnhams became one of the most influential families in the area. (Taken from "Homesteads: Early buildings and families from Kingston to Toronto", Margaret McBurney & Mary Byers, 1979, pg. 1723)
** Zaccheus Burnham was born February 20, 1777 in Dunbarton, New Hampshire, son of Asa Burnham and Elizabeth Cutler. He was raised in New Hampshire and came to central Upper Canada in 1797, eventually settling in Hamilton Township, Newcastle District. Several of his brothers also settled in the same area. On February 1, 1801, he married Elizabeth Choate, also of New Hampshire. Together they had six children, five daughters and one son. As soon as Burnham arrived in Upper Canada, he became interested in acquiring land and was eventually to become one of the largest land holders in the Newcastle District (he owned the land on which the village of Ashburnham is situated). He also carried out land surveys with his future son-in-law, land surveyor Richard Birdsall, which allowed Burnham to determine the best plots of land to acquire. As well, payment for land surveys was often in the form of land. By 1831, Burnham had a 1000 acre farm, plus thousands of acres of land scattered throughout the United Counties of Northumberland and Durham, and Peterborough County. Burnham was also involved in the military. He joined the militia as a private in 1801. In the War of 1812 he was a captain. He remained active in the military as a member of the First Regiment of the Northumberland Militia, and as Colonel, led a large force to Toronto in response to the Rebellion of 1837. Burnham was also involved in many other activities and was a leading member in the community. He became a road commissioner for the Newcastle District in 1811. In 1813, he was appointed as a Justice of the Peace. He was also the Treasurer of the Newcastle District from 1815 to 1851, and he represented the riding of Northumberland and Durham in the House of Assembly from 1817 to 1820. In 1831 he was appointed to the Legislative Council by Lieutenant Governor Sir John Colbourne, and served there until 1841. In July 1839, he was made a Judge for the District court of Newcastle. Zaccheus Burnham died February 25, 1857, at Cobourg, Upper Canada. (Taken from: "Dictionary of Canadian Biography." Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1985.)
Hon. Zaccheus Burnham was a man of great prominence and large wealth. He was for many years a member of the Canadian Parliament, also a member of the County Legislative Councl and Treasurer of the County for a long period. Mark Burnham, his only son was an Episcopal Minister, and is said to have been worth a million of dollars.

** Of Nathan and Hannah Burnham’s children only their daughter Hannah Burnham and her husband Jacob Choate I immigrated to Canada. However five of their grandchildren Frances Marshall Burnham and her husband Jacob Choate II, and four of Asa Burnham’s sons Asa, Zaccheus, John (between 1797 & 1805) and Mark (1812) also immigrated. It seems the younger Burnhams and Choates enjoyed each other’s friendship.
The historical value of Engleburn resides in its association with the Burnham family. Architecturally, it is Peterborough's best example of the Classical Revival, also known as the English Palladium style. It was built in 1853 for the Reverend Mark Burnham, son of the Hon. Zaccheus Burnham, the largest landowner in Otonobee Township and Ashburnham village. Rev. Burnham was the fifth rector of Peterborough's oldest church, St. John's Anglican, and also helped found St. Luke's Church in Ashburnham. Source: Historical Designation Brief and City of Peterborough Bylaw 1980-116
The heritage value of Burnham Mansion resides in its association with Zaccheus Burnham, Jr., a member of a prominent Peterborough family. There is also heritage value in the simple Italianate style of the dwelling, attributed to noted Toronto-based architect, Walter Strickland, who practiced for a brief time in Peterborough. Part of the land became Mark D. Burnham provincial park. Zaccheus Burnham, Jr., was the adventurous son of Reverend Mark Burnham, one of the larger property owners in historic Peterborough. Zaccheus bought the 150 acres from his father in 1871 for a dollar, after returning penniless from the California gold rush. The attributed architect, Walter Strickland, was nephew to early Canadian authors and sisters, Catherine Parr Traill and Susanna Moodie. Originally called Engleburn Farm, Zaccheus became a gentleman farmer but tired of it by 1884. He kept some of his award-winning cattle, and died after an attack by a bull in 1913. His son, Mark S., returned the property to a working farm. A large section of land east of the house was donated after his death as Mark S. Burnham Provincial Park.
