    3. I posted some of these just a few days ago but went line by line through the census earlier today and found a couple more. Byrd/Bird Families or Individuals found in the 1860 Campbell Co., KY census: The information is as follows: Dwelling #, Family #, name, age, gender, occupation, real estate value, personal estate value, birthplace In Newport: 1435 1717 Martha Bird 40, F, England Charles " 36, M, weaver, Prussia Charlotte " 54, F, Bavaria Margaret " 14, F, Bavaria Alexandria: 584 584 Joseph Bird 30, M, Blacksmith, $200, $100, Baden Grants Lick: 1343 1347 John H. Byrd 34, M, farmer, $4,000, $1,500, Ky Ann " 31, F, Ky Alonzo " 9, M, Ky Sarah " 6, F, Ky Theodore " 4, M, Ky Arthur " 2/12, M, Ky 1515 1515 Richard Garrett 30, M, farmer, $4,000, $500, VA Mildred " 25, F, Ky Thomas E.

" 14, F, Ky James K. " 15, M, Ky Mary " 10, F, Ky Agatha " 7, F, Ky Foster " 5, M, Ky 1624 1622? Wm. Byrd 32, M, $6,000, $ --.--, Ky Sephrona (?) " 37, F, Ky Leo 3, M, Ky Ann married to John H. Byrd is Ann Yelton. Mildred m to Richard Garrett is Mildred Byrd, daughter of Foster Byrd listed above. Margaret m to Foster Byrd above is Margaret True Gosney. The Wm. Byrd entry was extremely difficult to read as the enumerator scratched over it, possibly as a result of fountain pen difficulty. Is anyone else working on the Foster Byrd family? I believe his parents to be John Byrd and Nancy Foster. John Byrd and Nancy Foster were in the 1850 Campbell Co, KY census but I did not find them in the 1860 census. Since John Byrd was b ca 1777 in VA and Nancy Foster b ca 1786 VA they could very well be deceased as of the 1860 census. For your records, John Byrd and Nancy Foster m 22 Jan 1804 Campbell Co., KY (Alexandria Courthouse). ANY input on this family would be GREATLY appreciated. I believe that Clarrissa Bird/Byrd who m Isaac Dye 31 Mar 1831 in Campbell Co., KY is from this Byrd/Foster family. Clarissa was b ca 1804 per the 1850 census. Kathleen Casson Walker P.S. I have the marriage year and name of spouse for many of Foster Byrd's children. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
