When William was killed in the C.W. Unity married my GrGrandfather Neri Patrick Bird. It was his second marriage as well, his first Wife died on Typhoid Fever. William and Unitys Daughter, Mary Francis. married her Step Brother, Henry Gooch Bird(One of Neris Sons of course) Henry is my Grandfather. Mary Francis died Aug.18th, 1910 in Thomaston, Ala. She was born in 1852. Annie Jane(1860-1930)married John Skipper and James Washinton Davis(1857-), married Fannie Taylor, she is buried in Crenshaw County, Ala. Highland Homes, I think. I didn't show George in my records but I think he was born in 1854 but I know nothing about him. Mary Francis Davis Bird and Henry Gooch Bird were married in 1868, he was 19 years her senior. They had 7 Children, one of which was my Father, in 1895 when Henry was 62. He changed the spellin! g to Byrd when he went into WW1. I hope this adds a little to your hunt.
