<p class="article__text">
<a rel="nofollow" class="btn-edit-popup" href="/web/person-edit.html?profileId=3770388§ion=background#general"></a>
William Burnet was the son of Dr. Ichabod and Hannah Burnet, both natives of Scotland. He was born on December 2, 1730 at Lyon's Farms, a hamlet between Elizabethtown and Newark, and was brought up in a home in which the father was one who took the popular side in the political controversies of the time.

Education
</h2>
<p class="article__text">Educated at the College of New Jersey under the presidency of the Rev. Aaron Burr, he was a member of its second class, 1749, which was graduated before the College was removed to Princeton. Thereafter he studied medicine under a Dr. Staats of New York and then established himself in Newark where he lived and practised, except for the interruption due to the Revolution, until his death.</p>

Career
</h2>
<p class="article__text">At the outbreak of hostilities, although an extensive and lucrative practise had made him a man of means, he took an active part with those organizing opposition to royal authority. In May 1775 he became chairman of the committee of public safety for Newark and a little later chairman of the Essex County committee of safety, both committees laboring to keep the powerful Loyalist element under control.<br/><br/>In June 1776 by direction of Washington he took measures for securing the person of Governor William Franklin, who, after having given his parole, had issued a proclamation reconvening the defunct Loyalist legislature. Meanwhile in March 1776, at the call of Lord Stirling, Burnet collected and dispatched several military companies in aid of the defense of New York, his eldest son, Dr. William, Jr. , going as surgeon attached to these companies. <br/><br/>In addition Burnet was shortly made presiding judge of the Essex County courts, having as an early duty the sentencing of Loyalist neighbors and friends for furnishing aid to the enemy. <br/><br/>The exercise of dictatorial and judicial powers did not interfere with the establishment, in 1775, on his own responsibility and largely at his own expense, of a military hospital located at Newark, to which he and his son gave personal supervision. In the winter of 1776-77 New Jersey sent him to the Continental Congress, which shortly after elected him physician and surgeon-general of the Eastern District.<br/><br/>In 1780 he was again a member of the Continental Congress. As one result of his connection with Washington's headquarters there was formed between him, his sons, and the young Lafayette a lasting attachment, of which a memento in the brace of pistols worn by the Marquis at the Yorktown surrender is still in the possession of descendants.<br/><br/>Since he was the chief suppressor of Loyalist activities in eastern New Jersey his property was the object of especial attack during times of British successes. <br/><br/>Among other losses his medical library, spoken of as one of the most extensive in the colonies, was carried off. Following the cessation of hostilities he returned to an extensive practise in Newark. He was shortly after appointed presiding judge of the court of common pleas as well as chosen president of the New Jersey Medical Society, of which years before he had been one of the founders. On taking the chair at a meeting in Princeton he revived the custom of delivering the inaugural address in Latin. <br/><br/>He died in Newark, New Jersey on October 7, 1791, aged 60, and was interred in that city's First Presbyterian Church Cemetery.</p>
