Hi, I ran across your reference to Cude and wonder if you have any information on my great-grandfather William Asa Byrd, born in Arkansas in 1858. I have some information that he may have been raised by a Jenny Cude. I was wondering if there was any connection to your the Cude listed in your reply. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.
