I have been on this list serve for only a few months but I am amazed at all the Byers out there. My ancestors came from Ireland originally to Ontario and from there to Saskatchewan in about 1905. Wondering when the US branch came from Ireland?

Dear Candayce, I have been asking every BYERS researcher if they have come across a Green Don Byers born about 1837, probably in SC. He is first found on the Greene Co., AR 1860 census and is listed as a lawyer. He joined the confederate army, was elected a captain and was killed at the Battle of Helena. He is buried in an unmarked grave in Memphis TN. I would dearly love to find his parents and siblings, if any. Any help will be appreciated. Phil Di Matteo In a message dated 11/2/2008 5:13:00 P.M.

I will be going to Easley saturday to visit someone at the Willows to ask some questions about my Byers/Byars family. Can anyone on the list tell me what part of Easely is considered Pumpkintown and Daucusville? I will be coming from Atlanta, and going 8f5 N to Hwy 8 into Easely, and as the Byers/Byars lived in those areas I would like to make sure I drive through there while I'm there.
