I don't have an Ed O'Rear in my dataset (contains about 5000 O'rears and
relations), but I do have that William Byrd and Hannah (Lamkin) O'Rear had
two children: Albert Henry O'Rear (1860-1947) and Martha Ellen O'Rear
(1865-1948). Martha Ellen was married twice - first to William Ivey and
second (1923) to C. F. Brock.

Martha may have had a brother, Ed. This is just a guess, of course. But
the timing seems right, and possibly Margaret Ivey is a sister or cousin to
William Ivey.

Do you have any other data on Ed O'Rear?
