Over the last year I have seen numerous people warn us about the damage that certain things (i.e. "shaving cream") can do to tombstones, however I have yet to see any recommendations on how to "PRESERVE" them.... How about "Thompson's Water Seal" and a 2" paintbrush....it works on our decks, driveways, and patios...why not tombstones?

I am searching for the ancestors of James D. Byrd of Limestone County, Texas. It is likely he came from Louisiana. He married Georgia A. Johnston in Texas and they had Neal (born11/2/1902 ) and Jewel born in 1898.

I found informtion on Robert Bird died 9/29/1921 married Catherine on the Broyles Home page. I sent an e-mail asking how the Bird's are related to the Broyles but did not receive a reply. Can someone explain this? I have Robert Bird born about 1745 Va. married Catherine born 1758 Maryland. I come down though their daughter Catherine who married John Swift. In the 1850 Census Catherine Bird Swift lists her birthplace as NC, in the 1860 she lists her birthplace as TN. It was posted on this list that her brother Thomas was born in Burke Co. NC. in 1783. Was Burke Co a part of NC in 1783 and then became part of TN later on? Any help on this family would be appreciated. Betsy Arndt [email protected]

Nancy, First of all, Mary Bird married Joshua Gay is not my direct line, so we aren't related that way, but bet we are somehow.....I have already claimed you and I AIN't letting go!!!(Maybe Carters) This Mary Bird was the daughter of Jonas Bird, Sr. m. Mary (?). Let me start at Wm. This is all from Mr. Bird who has been to all different locations and recorded it. But it is from the top of his head. He said he would send me some info in mail when he looks it up. He is old and couldn't find it right away. 1. William Byrd-Jamestown, VA 2. Thomas Byrd-Surry Co., VA 1691(found his will in crt. records there) 3. William Byrd (at some point the Byrds moved to NC)!!!!! 4. William Byrd(he never came to Ga from NC 5. Jonas Bird, Sr.m. Mary (?) 6. Jonas Bird, Jr. m. Rebecca Turner (as you know) Apparently, Mary below is Jonas Bird, Sr.'s wife not Wm. as I said earlier: 11,Dec.1823, widon Mary Bird, appointed Joel Hightower, Power of Attorney and he is of Gwinnett Co., I believe. He sold Lot#354,Dist.7 in Gwinnett Co. to Wm. Faine of Hall Co. Heirs signing: Wm. Bird Wyley Joel Jones(Jonas)(this is Jonas,Jr.sometimes listed as Joney and Jones) Ann Gay (Mary)(wife of Joshua Gay) Teneey Williamson Jacob Daughtry Viney Brewer or Brannen From EM. Co. Will Abs. According to Mr. Bird Jonas Bird, Jr. and Rebecca Turner moved to another Co. around 1840. But you know where!!! He says that there was a Jesse Bird who was Jonas, Jr.'s brother. Jonas Bird, Jr., Mr. Bird said had sons named Joseph and Wm.F. I could be wrong on that. It was hard over the phone. Hope this helps you. Let me know. Your Cuz, Nancy

Is this Bird ancestor linked to any of your information? Please help....I am stuck on this one....don't even know her parents.....Thanks in advance.. Karen

I recently found my husband's great great grandparents and three of their sons and spouses buried at the Old Trinity Methodist Cemetery Church in Elizabethtown, Bladen, NC: Charles William Byrd (1862-1941), his wife Martha Burney Byrd (1869-1956) and three sons, Lonnie, Charles and Ervin. Does anyone know anything regarding these people or information regarding the Church? There are more Byrds buried in this cemetery but I don't know what their connections are. Also, Annie Byrd Mercer, (1887-1910) daughter of Charles and Martha Byrd, was buried in Robeson County, NC. There are only two other graves where she is buried: J.O. Byrd (1837-1894) and William Byrd (1835-1902). It is rather obvious that they are related in some way (possibly grandparents). Any information you may have would be appreciated. Thanks, Julie

Looking for Daniel Byrd (variant spellins) b. ca. 1829 VA/KY/WV/TN/NC. In 1850 Whitley Co., KY census he is a carpenter 21 yrs. of age living in the EARLY household.

There is some connection as the Early's, Birds, Rockholds, and Hamblins all move to Mercer Co., Ky abt. same time. Also , looking for I. Martin J. Byrd md. Caroline Hamblin in Whitley Co, KY . They also moved to Mercer Co., MO and Wayne Co. IA [email protected]

I just woke up!!!! All this time I've taken for granted my Cam Hogan-raised by William Cam Byrd--was the son of W. C. Byrd and Sallie Bowman. As it turns out, he lists his mother as Marry Harris and his father as John Cam Byrd! anyone working on these two people. I'm almost thinking that the John he has listed is my William Cam's brother!
