Husband of Ruth Richards and probably the father of Rachel and Elizabeth Richards. Benjamin died before 27 Oct 1743 since his inventory was recorded on that date. Ruth died after Benjamin.
Rachel first married (1) Andrew Ware (Find A Grave Memorial# 45125071). After Andrew passed away she married (2) Robert Briant.
Elizabeth Richards, sister of Rachel, married John Prosser.
Cemetery notes and/or description:
Burden's grave-yard was on the brow of a hill near where the turnpike road from Berlin falls into the Clementon and White Horse Road, in Gloucester Township, and is now entirely overgrown with timber. It was probably founded by Thomas Webster who owned the land in 1742, and who, with part of his family, were buried there. He had two sons, Lawrence and Samuel, but they moved to other parts.
Richard Burden became owner of the soil in 1789, hence the name as known in modern times. David Hurley's and Joab (Jacob) Hillman's families may be there, as they owned land and lived nearby.
Andrew Neuman owned the land in 1712 where the "Clementon"
Mills stand and built the first mill there, about one mile from the yard in question, and it may be that he and his family rest there, and his brother John and family and Benjamin Richards and Henry Lake as well, with their families; and later, Moses Branson and Richard Burden and their families.
