Other Notes

  • The picture marked J. H.  Bird, I am not sure if it is James Henry Bird or John Henry Bird will have to investigate with older family members.

  • The picture marked J. H.  Bird and dog, I am not sure if this is James Henry or John Henry Bird, I will also see if I can get that information.

  • The picture marked Mr. & Mrs. Charles H. Bird, I am not sure of, but will investigate.
