The Burgin Family Album

Frank was born in Fort Worth, Texas 1908 - Died in Belmont, N.C. 1938He married Kathleen Bell, daughter of Robert L. and Minnie Lea Bell, circa 1929. They had three children: Donald F., Robert Joseph, and Faye Ruth. Frank's grand- father, Merritt Burgin II, father of Postelle and Grandpa Joe, had a first cousin by the name of Rebecca L. Burgin who married a gentleman by the name of Columbus Postelle Rader. I've often wondered if respect for that gentleman resulted in the naming of William Postelle Burgin and my dad, Rader Frank Burgin.
