    3. Hello Ron. I am afraid I cannot help you directly, I live in the Uk. However, your message attracted my interest because of similarities to my own searching. My Gt.Uncle settled in New York (Erie, Buffalo) and was a sculpter.  He carved the bronze figures around the Shrine of Our Lady at Cheektowaga and in Canada did a bust of the Mayor of St.Catherine's Ontario in the 1920's.  Apparently he did a lot of other busts etc., including one of Lindbergh.  The only one I have tracked down to date is the Bust in Ontario. Like you too, I have no idea where he is buried, or indeed died, although I have strong reason to believe it was in the 1930's. I just wanted to share that.

    2. Ron, There is a wealth of information on your Great Uncle on Google, plus, a Facebook page on him. Maybe you are the coordinator of the page? Well, the person that initiated that page, is also looking for Byron M. Pickett's death and burial information. By the way, the 1850 census information I sent you is definitely Byron and his family, according to the Facebook page. Good luck Ron! Kathleen~CT.
