Andrew,
Yes you are right James Burnett b1818 Scotland.
www.lawsons.ca
Gives the death of James Burnett as 25.10.1885 aged 67. This ties in with his birth date of 1818. Died Michael(Kirkmichael?) IOM
Jessie aged 24 on the 1901 census keeps bringing us back to 1976??
My second cousin in Australia always talked of "inbreeding" My uncle James Burnett Cantwell married a Majorie(or Margaretta) Parr.
I am still trying to clarify this line!
