Subject: CHARLES WILLIAM JR. BAIRD Of Lauderdale Co., TN born 1815

I found CHARLES WILLIAM JR. BAIRD, age 35, teacher, in the 1850 census, Dist. 1, Lauderdale County, TN, with wife MARGARET R BAIRD, age 31 and dau CORDELIA BAIRD, age 2. CHARLES WILLIAM JR. BAIRD was son of CHARLES WILLIAM BAIRD and MARY A. HANSARD of Mecklenburg Co., VA. No further information after the 1850 census. Is anyone researching the Lauderdale County BAIRD'S?

Subject: Re: Baird's Mill site

I am a direct decendent of JOHN BILLINGSLY BAIRD, who's grandfather was ALEXANDER BAIRD. ALEXANDER is made mention of in several locations however I havn't been able to find direct mention of ALEXANDER'S father or all of his children ( even in one place where it's titled ALEXANDER BAIRD'S Nine Sons) I have a JOHN BAIRD to be ALEXANDER'S father but the JOHN BAIRD listed on the site died 9 yrs before ALEXANDER'S birth. Do you or anyone have any information on a JOHN BAIRD (ALEXANDER'S father) or a WILLIAM BAIRD (ALEXANDER'S Grandfather)?

I have found the names of WILLIAM JENNINGS BAIRD, WILSON BAIRD, DAVID BAIRD, MILES BAIRD, JOHN BAIRD, THOMAS BAIRD, JAMES BAIRD, and SELDON BAIRD to be ALEXANDER'S sons can anyone confirm this (and this is only 8).

Subject: BAIRD Family/Brunswick Co.,VA.

My Grandfather's name was LUTHER EARL BAIRD (b. 6-18-1896) (d. 9-19-1958) and he was born at home in Gasburg, VA (Brunswick Co.).

His father's name was JUNIUS F BAIRD and his mother was MARY "MAMIE" BAIRD (Small community and they were kissing cousins). MARY was quite a bit younger than JUNIUS and she died very young. My grandfather was just a young boy.

We don't know much about her side of the family at all. My Great grandfather's name was FED BAIRD (we think) and he was married to MARY J BAIRD (we think). It was very sketchy.

This is an entire community of BAIRD'S. I was not sure that you had a record of this or if you were interested but here it is. Thanks for your site. I'm trying to find out how the BAIRD'S got to Gasburg.

Subject: JAMES & SARAH BAIRD of VA. & Bedford, Co. Tn

Hi! My name is MINDY (BAIRD) MAASS. I am researching my family history and have come across a stumbling block. The furthest back I can trace my heritage is to JAMES BAIRD b. ABT. 1764 in Halifax, Virginia.

JAMES BAIRD married a woman named SARAH WADE, who was a widow on Nov. 12, 1789.

SARAH WADE had several children from her previous marriage, but she and JAMES had three sons together: JOHN BAIRD, b. ABT 1790 in Halifax, Va., ROBERT BAIRD, b. Aug 29, 1792 in Halifax, Va., and JAMES L BAIRD b. ABT 1794 in Halifax, Va.

This is all of the info I have on JAMES. None of my other family members are able to get past the paternal JAMES and discover his ancestry.

We believe his father's name was JOHN, but we have been unable to find anythng in writing stating this information.

From Virginia, the family moved to the Bedford Co., Tn. area. A distant cousin discovered that JAMES had a farm somewhere in the Falls Creek area (at the time was called Falling Creek) and his son, JOHN, lived close by in a town called Shelbyville. There are no exact records that have been found giving exact locations to either property, but it is believed that JAMES is buried on his property in the Falls Creek area, but as I said, no one is quite sure where it was or how to find it.

Just wondering if you have any info on these people or know anyone who could provide it. Any info you can provide about these two places and its history would be great too.

I've really enjoyed looking at your site. Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you for your help!!
