I dont have access to "Burke's landed Gentry" unless you can advise me
where (preferably online) I can get access.
Nigel Batty-Smith advertises four out-of-copyright versions on CDROM at:

Burke, of course, himself gives no information as to his sources but
usually he got his material from the families concerned, some (most,
even) of whom had to pay to have their entry included. So the quality
is a bit variable. And some families might be in one edition and not in
another and with changed information in a third.
Stirnet say that they got most of their information from Burkes various
volumes so they can be used as an on-line guide to what is in Burke:
