Oh where, oh where has my Marian/Marion gone?

Trying to locate a Marion/Marian (Sutherland) Burnette (d/o Alexander Sutherland 1788/89-1859 and Catherine Matheson 1796-1883), born circa 1825 in Earltown, Colchester Co., Nova Scotia. In 1860, a year after her father died, she penned a letter to the executor of her father's will which was postmarked 'Washington Village'. In the letter she asked the executor to thank her family for the money and noted "we're all doing well" suggesting she had at least one issue at the time. Because the letter was handwritten, Marian/Marion's married name appears to be Burnett/Burnette. Her siblings include: Alexander (no dates), Catherine (1836), Donald (1819) m. Janet Henderson (1828), Nancy (1831) m. Norman MacDonald, Ellen (1828), and Angus David (1823) m. Elizabeth Colquhoun.
Would be absolutely ecstactic if anyone has any info on Marion/Marian and/or her brother Alexander (no idea what happened to him either).
