P_1895 1895 Publication ‘Familiae Minorum Gentium’ (Publications of the Harleian Society, Copy) 1895  
Burnet & Reyner pedigrees are copies from the Collections of Thomas Wilson of Leeds now in the public library there.  
CW: The father of Jonas (d. 1703) was also Jonas as seen above, not Thomas as in this pedigree. The John Burnett coming out of Scotland is probably also wrong.  
CW: Thomas Burnett was the eldest son of Jonas (d. 1703), but must have died before 1703 when Jonas was described as the eldest son. The Thomas who also sold property to Smyth may have been the son of Jonas (d. 1720).
