In the 1850 census for Canton, Fulton Co, IL there is a Thomas Bird, age 65, born in NJ. He seems to be listed with children Elizabeth, age 27; Isaac, age 25; Anna, age 22; Samuel, age 21; and James, age 12. All but James were born in New Jersey. Does anyone know who Thomas' parents are, or what his wife's name was? Or even where in NJ he came from? He might be my missing Thomas Bird who was the grandson of Isaac Bird of Sussex CO, NJ.
