BURNS.
The first record obtainable of the Burns family is of Thomas Burn, who owned property in Corntown, Co. Sterling, Scotland, by Crown charter, in 1538. This property descended to John Burn. In 1783 the name was first spelled Burns, in the Glasgow directory. (The several Burns families treated are related.)
