Research notes for Peter

I have kept his surname listed as Burke instead of Burk. I usually refer to headstone, but in this case... I don't know. The biggest reason is probably his son went by Burke. It seems like Peter dropped the E later perhaps.

Middle name William - Roy's birth record shows father as Peter Wm. Also, several other records show Peter W.
