William C. Byrd is my ggg-grandfather. I'm having a terrible time going any farther
back. I know that he was born 1821 in North Carolina (Guilford County) On the 1850
census there is Jesse Byrd also of North Carolina. I can find the Jesse Bird found in
Guilford County. Can anyone help me link up the relationship between these two men?
Jesse was 45 years old in 1850. He could have been William's father, but more likely
was a brother or uncle. In William's house in 1850 was 16 year old Mary. Is she a
sister? I would appreciate any help in linking these Bird/Byrds.
