About A-ca-nee-a Robert Burch
Robert was a Southern Ute man of the Mouache band
Biography:
Research Notes:
-Susan Burch in her book "Committed" suggests that the father of Jane and Susan is Steve Burch and Ruth Bent. The name Steve did not show in Southern Ute census reports until 1912, and that was the first year that Ruth Bent was identified as his wife. Before 1912, all federal and Indian census reports said the father was Robert Burch and the mother See-pe-on Mary NN (Burch).
-In the 1900 census Ruth had one child Catalina and sister Lucy? was the mother to Mary and Susie! Robert still had children with Mary, ie Helen...
-In 1904 Robert is shown M age 51 with children Ida, John, Ada, Samuel, and William. Ruth Bent is shown as F age 29 with children Mary Bent 14 and Susie Bent 15
-In 1906 Ruth Bent was identified as Head with two children Francis B Burch age 2 and Sarah B Burch age 14 = b. 1892
-in 1908 Ruth Bent is shown as Robert's wife with Sarah, John, Ada, and Samuel as children, but these except Sarah were children of Mary who stopped being shown as Robert's wife in 1901.
-in 1912 Ruth Bent is shown married to Robert (and aka Steve is shown in the Indian name column), with son Samuel by Mary.
Conclusion: Given that in the Indian census's the Burch and Bent surnames are on the same page or immediately before or after, it leads to the conclusioin that the families were geographical neighbors. It appears that Robert and Ruth Bent had relations as early as 1892 that produced on female child named Sarah Burch. According to both Indian and federal census reports Robert burch was married to Mary from 1897 through 1900, and still having children together namely Helen b. c. 1900. Mary disappeaers from census reports in 1901, and in 1904 and 1906 Ruth Bent had children by another husband. In 1908 Ruth Bent appears as wife of Robert Burch, and again in 1912. From this I conclude that Robert had two wives, first Mary from c. 1880, and secondly Ruth Bent beginning c. 1908. Roberts given name was A-ca-nee-a and appears that way from 1895 - 1912. In 1912, in the Indian census, the name "Steve" appears in the Indian name column following A-ca-nee-a, as well as Robert appearing the the English name colume. From where the name Steve comes has not been identified by sources.
In the book "Committed" by Susan Burch, the author says that Roberts children were by parents Steve Burch and Ruth Bent, which is contradicted by census documents (see below), jane and Susan wer the daughters of Robert and Mary.
