I believe him to be the son of John Bird, Sr., who was married at least twice, the second (?) wife being Jerusha "Molly" Vaughn Farris, whose first husband was Isaac Farris. Isaac was killed by Indians. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I have names and dates which I have not listed due to the length of this list. Thank you, Pat (Byrd) Rankins
