I am looking for the family of Samuel Edwin Byrd born 1855 in Randolph Co., Indiana. I do
know he had a younger brother Charles. He married Cora Alice Davis in 1889 in Kiowa Co.,
Kansas. The following are different census' in Indiana. It is possible that he could
be the son of Green H. Byrd. If anyone connects to this family, please reply. Thanks,
Phyllis
