Benjamin Burgess South Australia

[Inter]

I am  researching the Burgess family from Yankalilla South Australia and believed I had all family members until the name Benjamin Burgess appeared at the death of Emily Marriner/ Hatt/ Burgess. I have found little evidence of his birth or parentage except his father was Richard Burgess. I am trying to confirm he was the son of Richard Burgess and Emily Burgess from Yankalilla.

Hi
You give no dates, or where info comes from so difficult to search.

Have assumed the following info from findagrave is correct

Benjamin died 3.5.1916 Adelaide, - West Terrace Cemetery
Wife. - Sarah Annie.  his children are also named.
Father - Richard
Mother - Emily

If you have world access to Ancestry there are submitted documents

hope this helps
