I would like any information on

Fayette County, Pennsyvania. Derrick and Nancy Bird lived in Henry Clay
Township during the 1850 census (page 129, line 1. There is also a
ARchibald Burd for the 1850 census for Addison Township, Somerset
County, PA (page 197a line 26). Susan McClure

Fred Bird md Mira Sutherland probably in Teheran, Persia, about
1915 or so. Fred was with American Univ. and Mira was working
as a nurse. I understand they returned to U.S. probably just before
U.S. entered WWI. Fred was a sociology(?) professor at Columbia U.
after returning from Persia.
They had daughter, Jean, who was born about 1917 in Persia.
Mira (died abt 1968) would be my great aunt and was keeper of family
genealogy when genealogy wasn't popular *:)
Any help?

My RHODA BIRD needs parents also. She was born August 24, 1815,
married Thomas N. Rogers abt. 1840 and died January 21, 1897 in North
Fulton Co., Georgia. She became a widow during the Civil War and lost
everything to a Yankee raid, even the salt to keep her meat.
Any help would be appreciated.

I found the following people in the 1850 census for
Zodiac, Gillespie Co, Texas:
Phineas Bird, age 48, Stone Mason, b NY;
Polly 49 Mass
George W. Bird 27 NY
Eliza 23 Penn
Samuel 17 NY
Benjamin F. Bird 22 NY
Mary 18 NY
Richard 9 IL
These first names are the same as those used in the
family of Benjamin Freeman Bird of NJ>NY>UT,
Judy,
Interesting observation, George W.(Washington ??) and Benjamin would
also fit into Bird line from NJ/PA/ILL/COLO. Especially curious that Elisa
was born in Pa, wonder where ?
Gene Bird
For the Birds who had ancestors in Franklin Co., NC there is a Franklin Co., NC chat room at www.franklinconcchamber.com/coc15.html This is from 7pm to 9pm nightly, though sometimes it is hard to find someone else in the chat room. I hope this helps someone.
