Re: BAIRD, JOHN HILL

I have been trying to find and sort out the various Bairds and Beards who appeared in Ross and Fayette Counties in Ohio. There was a Dr. James M. Baird who was involved in publishing a couple of newspapers in Fayette County in the early 1830s. For a while he was in partnership with a William Hill. He caught my eye because there was also an S. F. Yeoman involved in the papers. I have been researching a David Baird who died in Fayette, OH in 1820, who left widow, Penelope and minor son, Evan as a ward of Walter Yeoman. Turns out Dr. James M. Baird also had a son, Evan, b. Ohio. David's son, Evan was b. Fleming, KY. All of this is an attempt to find the parents and siblings of Delilah Beard, who m. John Snider in Fayette, OH in 1820 and had a son Evan and a son David B.
