Social Networks

ANCESTRY.COM: Several family members have accounts that list their individual family trees. We connect with most of them and have learned lots about our genealogy.

FACEBOOK.COM: This is a Facebook group that is closed to everyone but our family relations. There are thousands of Burnett relatives in the Kansas City metro area alone. (see link)

The Internet provides a platform to stay in touch with each other. Although many of us have never met; and, many of us have not seen each other in many years, the hope is that these resources will facilitate a continuing dialog among family relations - despite the obvious challenges inherent to physical distances.
