There were several members of the Bird family in BEnton County, Missouri. These Bird's have connections with the Bird's of Sevier County, Tennessee. One family was Adam Bird. He married Jane and they had several children. ANother is Henry Bird. Another was William Bird. He died in Benton County about 1892. He had a son, WIlliam Zachariah Jr. Seek anyone from these families. I have extensive information on other bunch of Bird's, but lack info on the bunch that went to Missouri.
