Burr Starbuck Weaver married on Oct.15, 1927 in 127 Foster Street, Berwick, Kings, Nova Scotia, Canada by the local Baptist Minister to Gladys Manon Chute when he graduated from M.I.T. with an engineering degree.

Burr had seven brothers and sisters. He was born in Indiana but right after his birth his father took the family by train back to Denison, Texas. It is possible this relocation happened just prior to his birth.

Burr and Gladys had a daughter Nancy Burr Weaver born in Schenectady, N.Y. Feb. 22, 1930 who married Dr. John Mackay on May 16, 1953 and moved to British Columbia.

His early occupations included being a postman before 1917 and then he worked for Lingo-Leeper Lumber Company. After 1927 when he graduated from M.I.T. he worked for the General Electric Company as an engineer until his retirement in 1954.

He had served in the U.S. Army from May 1917 to October 1919 (14 months overseas) and remained in the Reserve for many years.

Burr and Gladys are both buried in the Fruitvale Cemetery.
