Okay guys! I was so happy last night to find some 'significant' information and then couldn't get my stupid email to go through! I mentioned the other day that I thought my (Gabriel) Washington Byrd Pyeatt was probably named after someone in the family or a close friend of his parents, William and Diana Hornsby Pyeatt. I asked if anyone knew anything about T S Byrd who was on William's death certificate in 1912 (thanks to those who responded). Last night I was looking at the Jefferson County, MO, GenWeb cemetery page at the Byrds and spotted the following. "Byrd Percy L. Jun 14 1867 Feb 20 1877 Charter Church parents: Gabriel W & Mandora Byrd" WOW!!! W.B. Pyeatt (as he was usually called) was listed on one census as 'Gabril Pyeatt'. At least now I know that his full name was inded Gabril Washington Byrd Pyeatt and who he was named after. Now, I need to know more about this couple. They evidentally were having children at the same time as William and Diana and this could be a brother-in-law to one of them. Also, I noticed "Byrd Olive May Mar 30 1896 May 11 1897 Hematite Methodist parents: T.S & Jessie O" Could this be the same T S Byrd who is connected to my William? William's mother's name was Olivia McClure or Inks. Please let me know if you have any leads or suggestions!
