No. My Marion Laird was born in Lafayette IN of James and Permelia Long Laird. James and Permelia moved to Milford IL around 1855 to join his parents, Samuel and Delila Albin Laird, and several siblings. Marion married Matilda Coats of Milford, IL, Iroquois County and lived in that area until his death in 1927. Paul Laird I don't where, if anyplace, your Marion Laird relative merges with my Laird family. I've seen several references to Leota Alice Laird. I know she married someone in south central Illinois, in Johnson County I believe. I'll check some of my saved information.
