Luan, I am not related to any of these people but I did enjoy reading the piece you typed and I just want to say thanks for sharing the info. We have family living in these times and may have been neighbors. Lots of families back in those days had lots of childern, but I am aftaid Mr Byrd must have been in competation with a Mr Green that had, I think, 21 childern. I came from a family of 10 childern and we are all as happy as if we had good sense. (joke). Thanks again Always Clydie
