(If any of these sound familiar, send me an email--in my profile--and I'll see what else I can find!. We often need more than just birth and death years!. For instance, today there are 2,144,695 people in the U!.S!. with the first name Joseph--10th most popular first name, and there are 70,018 people in the U!.S!. with the last name Burnett, the 490th most popular last name!. There are 493 people in the U!.S!. named Joseph Burnett, according to www!.howmanyofme!.com!.
So, it helps a great deal to have birthplace, race (if known), at least one parent's name, etc!. to really do a thorough search for someone!.)Www@QuestionHome@Com

if you want help here, the continent he lived on (and country he lived in, if "Continent' isn't Australia) would help!. County would help even more!.

I would reccommend:
The surname board at Ancestry
The surname board at GenForum
The appropriate County board at Ancestry
The appropriate County board at Genforum
His obituary
Roots Web World Connect
The BURNETT RW Mailing list
The appripriate RW county mailing list
Google search with exact phrase
LDS 1880
