Hi!
I’m a Baird researcher from way back when. I just encountered your Baird collection, and thought I should make sure you have my current e-mail address.

I don’t have anything for Moses Baird.
Because of probates at Worcester, MA, in the 1700s, names of witnesses to wills, guardians, etc., who were identified in records as Scots who came from Ulster in 1718, I developed a theory that my earliest Thomas Bard who was at Worcester, Leicester, and buried at Auburn, MA, all while occupying the same farm while the boundaries around him changed was of the Scots migration from Ulster to Massachusetts in 1718. That name was among those who signed the letter sent to Governor Shute asking for permission to come to Massachusetts. The letter ended up in the state historical society in New Hampshire.
This theory (mine) is the most logical one to me. A Thomas Baird designated as a Scot appeared in the church seating records in 1724 at Worcester and was not in the next church seating about ten years later when my Thomas Baird had already been annexed to Leicester from Worcester. As I said, he is buried at now-Auburn, and you can find him, his son Thomas, and his grandson Thomas there in the cemetery on FindAGrave. My own ancestor was Daniel Baird (son of Thomas), born at Leicester circa 1742, and HE also named a son Thomas. Other researchers of this Beard / Baird family think the earliest was a David Beard whose probate occurred in the county circa 1730. These sons did not use the name David for any of their sons.
So I continue to search and ponder.

Maybe a connection it is not my research:
Moses BEARD born 7 MAY 1759 Becket, Berkshire Co. Massachusetts
and was listed in the United States Census for 1790 (pg 24 census) with one male over 16 (Moses age 31) and two males under 16 and four females who would be his wife Mary and his three daughters.
Moses stayed in Berkshire County and he died in Otis, Massachusetts in 1825.
(Possible 12 APR 1787 is death date of Mahitable??)
Moses BEARD married Mahitable SMITH about 1779 and they had three children
She died after her third child, Moses S. BEARD, was born on 12 APR 1787
after the death of his first wife Moses married his second wife Mary COCHRAN.
