Henry Burgum (1838-1879)
This is the church at Old Buckenham, in Norfolk, close to the last school where
Henry Burgum taught. He was the first born of James and Mary Ann (Cocking) Burgum. Three other children William, Mary Ann and James were born in 1840, 1842, and 1845.
Henry married Sarah Jane Rickard in Rotherham in 1857. They had 7 children between 1859 & 1875. The 1851 cenus shows Henry teaching at the National School in Tadcaster, Yorkshire, while the 1871 census indicates he was a school master at Walton, at Weatherby, Yorkshire. Henry died of lung disease and was buried at this church in 1879.
