Fellow Byrd Historians, I have a Sarah Ann Bird/Byrd b. 1826 d. 1850 TN. I know who she married and her children but I don't have her family. Anyone having genealogy history for families in TN please send the information to me. My verbal history says she is from ADM. R. E. Byrd's bloodline. When I checked that families' genealogy I don't find a connection for her. I don't know if this family verbal history is correct. Byrd cousins visited my mother's parents and discussed their "cousin Richard E.Byrd's" explorations. Open to discussion about this verbal history. Also PLEASE change my address from: sjmasonjr@www.att.net to AMom45@www.att.net AM ----- Original Message ----- From: <GWJCAL@aol.com> To: <BIRD-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, September 21, 2001 5:12 PM Subject: [BIRD-L] English & BYRD, AL 1800s > First Generation > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > 1.
