It has been said that he was the son of Robert Burscough, Archdeacon of Barnstaple from 1703 until 1709, but this seems to be incorrect. Contemporary documents name him (as "Rt Rev Wm Burscough, Bishop of Limerick") as dealing with the property in Hertfordshire previously owned by the Bownests, his mother's family.
