Fellow Bird Researchers: I found these Bird/Byrds in the 1704/04 VA rent rolls in the USGENWEB archives. I couldn't figure out how to access it directly with out the search engine which is at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ussearch.htm enter a surname (or even "alphabetical") And mark off VA as the state. The file is: 1704va.txt Janet Baugh Hunter Alexandria VA Alphabetical Rent Roll of Virginia 1704/05 (c) 1994 For more information on the early Virginia planters, consult: Wertenbaker, Thomas J., The Planters of Colonial Virginia, Russell & Russell New York, New York* indicates not living in County Bird Robt (Sheriff) King & Queen County, 1704 Bird Widdo Essex County, 1704 Bird Wm King & Queen County, 1704 Bird Wm Maj Qr King William County Byrd Coll Esq Prince George County, 1704 Byrd Esq[r] Henrico County, 1705 Byrd Wm Nansemond County, 1704
