    This Act was to restrict the power of the President removing certain office holders without approval of the Senate. It denies the President the power to remove any executive officer who had been appointed by the president with the advice and consent of the Senate, unless the Senate approved the removal during the next full session of Congress. The Amendment was later repealed.

    Name Meaning

    English: from an Old English personal name, Burgheard, composed of the elements burh, burg ‘fort’ (see Burke ) + heard ‘hardy, brave, strong’. The name was reintroduced into Middle English by the Normans in the forms Bou(r)chart, Bocard.

    English: possibly also from a Middle English personal name Burcard, Burchard (Norman Burcard, Old French Burchard), which was imported by the Normans and derives from ancient Germanic Burghard (in the form Burkhard this was a very popular medieval German name; see Burkhart ), cognate with the Old English name above. In France this gives rise to the surname Bouchard , Bouchart, but evidence for its use in Norman England is difficult to pin down and modern surnames in Burch- often have a different origin altogether.

    English: variant of Birkett , a spelling commonly found in northern England.
