    1. [LAIRD] Spellings
    2. We have discussed all the ways the real name could be spelled. I may have mentioned this in the past, but since we have a lot of new people on the list it may be worth mentioning again. When searching indexes, be aware of the kinds of mistakes the person making the index might make. For example, I have found the name Lard indexed as Sard, Sand, Lord, Land. Horatio Nelson Lard is in 1860 Indiana Census Index as Horation Nelson Land.
