Daughter of Richard Archer Burton and Catherine Salmon.
Death Notice in The Ballarat Star of Mar. 10, 1876: BURTON. —On 7th March, at Creswick, Jane Katherine, eldest daughter of Richard Archer Burton, solicitor, in her 21st year.
News Item in The Ballarat Star of Mar. 13, 1877: The window erected in St. John’s Church, Creswick, in memory of the late Miss Burton, organist of the church, is thus described by the Advertiser:— “The ‘memorial’ is a stained glass window, placed on the north side of the church, the subject being a full-length figure of St. Cecilia, the patron saint of music, treated in the medieval style. The saint, as usual, is represented holding a small organ, the face being a striking likeness of the lamented and much esteemed young lady. Above the principal figure are represented two angels, holding instruments of music, in the act of praise, surmounted by the sacred emblem I.H.S., and beneath, another angel holding a scroll inscribed with the words 'Gloria Dei.’ On another scroll interlaced with the leaves of the wood sorrel (emblem of St. Cecilia) is the inscription, ‘ln memoriam, Jane Archer Burton. AD. 1876.’ The subject was designed by Mr Wyatt, of Melbourne, and executed by Van-der Poorten Bros., Brussels. The purity of the design, the richness of the colors, and the finished style of the beautiful painting, make this memorial a real work of art.”
