She married a John Burn, Commander, Royal Navy.
You'll find other wee snippets in the 19th Century Newspapers if you have access.

Re: Penang, Malaysia
Many thanks to Nelmit and Currie for the kind replies to my query about Scott in Penang.I should check the website more frequently.
I do know of some of the Archive information given but I will certainly look into some of the others references.
I do know of Sophia Burns,Tobago Street, plus many other siblings.
I have also been in touch with Jan Herivel in Oz for several years now and we are both working on the same family together.
Again many thanks for the responses.
