George L.Bird of Lena, Louisiana
My Great grandfather was George L. Bird and suspect he is the son of Zeno Bird. George was born between 1841 and 1844 in LA. which puts him near the age of Zeno's son, George on the 1850 census in Rapides Parish, LA. I suspect he died near Lena (Rapides Parish)sometime around 1910. The 1910 census shows him living alone in Rapides Parish and I suspect he had kin there. On the 1870 census George lives in Baton Rouge, LA. with his wife Charlotte(Fox)and family. On the 1850 census the name is spelled Bird and not Byrd.I'v also heard of a George Bird living in St Landry Parish for a time, maybe on his way to Baton Rouge?
Thanks for any help you may have on George L. Bird.
