I am trying to find information on Mary BURRIS b 1856 in Middletown, St,
George's Hundred, New Castle County, Delaware. My Mary may have married
William C. WALLS who lived in Georgetown, Sussex County, Delaware. I have
the families info down below and if it helps, please let me know.

Thank you
Jean Benson
