"Where Cobourg stands today was once cedar swamp. As a result, the town was slower in becoming established than some of the adjacent centres along Lake Ontario. A few settlers had arrived, however, as early as 1798. Among them were four Burnham brothers, Asa, Zaccheus, John and Mark, who with their sister Hannah emigrated from New Hampshire. In the ensuring years, the Burnhams became one of the most influential families in the area." from "Homesteads: Early buildings and families from Kingston to Toronto", Margaret McBurney & Mary Byers, 1979, pg. 172
"Zacheus Burnham, of Otonabee Township, was born in St Thomas, Ont., in the year 1840, where he lived till 1851, when his people moved to the Town of Peterborough, and has lived in or near the same ever since. He was married, 1872, to Martha Stewart Fowlis, a native of the State of New York. Mr. Burnham is one of the descendants of Robert Burnham, Esq., who according to some old records in his possession, in the year 1642, held the manor of Billington in the County of Kent, England. The grandfather of the subject of this sketch was born in the State of New Hampshire, in 1777, and in 1798 emigrated to Haldimand County, Ontario. Here he was one of the first settlers amnd may be counted among the pioneers of that locality. Mark Burnham, father of our subject, and son of Zacheus, last named, was born in Cobourg, Ontario; was educated in Oxford, England; afterwards lived in St. Thomas; then in 1851, he moved, with his family, consisting of four sons and one daughter, to Peterborough, where the surviving family still reside. He officiated as clergyman in the Church of England during the greater part of his life." from page 630 of "History of the County of Peterborough", published 1884, in the section "Otonabee Township".

Note: This is a partial lot on the border between Murray and Cramahe Twp.'s, which would later become part of Brighton Twp. Not sure why this record, and several others mentions "All 32 acres", since the actuallot is around 100 acres, just long and narrow. ??
