My maternal great great great grandmother Eliza Malachy originally married Philip Davey Serjeant in 1828. Unfortunately Philip died in Canada in 1834. I understand that Eliza then remarried John Grills Burgh in 1836 but that he died a year later in 1837. Can any one help me find out more about John Burgh?

Eliza Serjeant and John Burgh married in Cornwall - I think.

I have been informed by a distant cousin that after John Grills Burgh married Eliza Serjeant in 1836 that they had twins who died at birth, probably in early 1838. Can anyone throw any light on this?

Regards
