"An antique store owner gave me some loose pages from an old Bible that
describe the career, children , siblings and parents of a Presbyterian
minister named Joshua Chase Burgess (b. 1842), son of John Burgess and
Hannah Chase of somewhere in Nova Scotia. Joshua went to Dalhousie U. in
Halifax and also the Theological College there. I would be happy to
donate the loose leaves to anyone who cares about this man and his
relatives. His career took him to New Brunswick, San Francisco, CA and
finally Danville, CA."

I am not connected to this family, but I am researching another Nova
Scotian Chase family. I do know that Joshua Chase Burgess's mother,
Hannah Chase, was the daughter of Joshua Chase and Esther Terry. Joshua
Chase was the son of Joseph Chase and Hannah Ells. Joseph was the son of
Stephen Chase and Esther Buffinton. Stephen was born in Portsmouth,
Rhode Island, USA and died in Cornwallis, Kings Co, Nova Scotia.
