Looking for info on Bird/Burd family who lived in Bellevue,IA from @ 1853-1864?. Father's name was Jesse W. Bird (Burd) and mother's name was Henrietta. They had several children: Benjamin J.(listed in 1860 Bellevue census as married to Sarah and having 5 mo.old daughter Lillian, who is not mentioned in next census. She may have possibly died in Bellevue?), George (was 20 yrs old, employed as cooper), Theophilus (was 18 yrs), Margaret E. (16 yrs), Mary Jane (10 yrs), and James ( who was born in Bellevue @1853) and my gr-gr-grandmother, Alforetta (Allie) who was born in Bellevue @1856.
Jessie and Henrietta had another son, Charles Wesley, who is mentioned in 1850 PA census, but he is not mentioned in 1860 Bellevue, IA census. Family was in Bellevue in 1853, so Charles Wesley may be buried there? Any info wuld be appreciated. thanks
