  1. 2.  Carlton B. Root was born in Aug 1827 in Granville, Licking, Ohio, United States; died in 1907 in West Salem, Edwards, Illinois, United States; was buried in West Salem, Edwards, Illinois, United States.

    • Residence: 14 Jun 1880, Lick Prairie Township, Wabash, Illinois, United States
    • Residence: 5 Jun 1900, West Salem, Edwards, Illinois, United States

    Notes:

    It appears that Carlton has his brother and his brothers family living within the household with them in 1850. It is assumed it is his brother. There is only 2 years between them so I am sure it is his brother. Accordifng to the online tree for this family Henry is Carlton's brother

    Although find a grave and some printed booiks have Carlton's middle name as Belt; I have chosen just to put the B as there is no documentation to prove it.

    The 1870 & 1880 Census has Carlton being born in 1828

    Carlton + Nancy E. Baird. Nancy (daughter of John W. Baird and Rebecca Stewart) was born in Oct 1827 in Wabash County, Illinois, United States; died in 1915; was buried in West Salem, Edwards, Illinois, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 3.  Nancy E. Baird was born in Oct 1827 in Wabash County, Illinois, United States (daughter of John W. Baird and Rebecca Stewart); died in 1915; was buried in West Salem, Edwards, Illinois, United States.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Cemetery: Moravian Cemetery, West Salem, Edwards, Illinois, United States
    • Residence: 28 Aug 1850, Nekimi, Winnebago, , Wisconsin, United States
    • Residence: 17 Jul 1860, Pleasant Hill Township, Wabash, Illinois, United States
    • Residence: 27 Jun 1870, Lick Prairie Township, Wabash, Illinois, United States
    • Residence: 14 Jun 1880, Lick Prairie Township, Wabash, Illinois, United States
    • Residence: 5 Jun 1900, West Salem, Edwards, Illinois, United States
    • Residence: 7 May 1910, Salem Township, Edwards, Illinois, United States

    Notes:

    It is assumed that the online trees are correct in that Nancy is the daughter of John and Rebecca. Her birthdate does coincide with the marriage of John and Rebecca as John married Rebecca in 1825. With Nancy's birth she would of been one of the first children born to John and Rebecca. I find it hard to believe that John and Rebecca waited 6 years before they had any children. If i could find Nancy's death certificate that listed her parents that would prove it. It appears that Nancy may have had more children that did not survive infancy. There is a gap of 8 years between Mary and Lelly. Most likely there was at least 2 or 3 children that were born between the years of 1850 and 1856 as it was not normal for a family to have that much of a age gap between children.

    Nancy is listed as being born in 1828 in the 1860, 1870,1880 & 1910 Census.

Generation: 3

  1. 6.  John W. Baird was born on 12 Nov 1803 in Tennessee, United States; died on 18 Jan 1883 in Mount Carmel, Wabash, Illinois, United States; was buried in Mount Carmel, Wabash, Illinois, United States.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Residence: 27 Jul 1870, Lick Prairie, Wabash, Illinois, United States
    • Residence: 22 Jun 1880, Mount Carmel, Wabash, Illinois, United States

    Notes:

    There is an Irene Hill, 16 years old living within the household of John Baird's in 1870 along with 2 others. Clinton and John W Baird. Clinton and John were both born in Illinois. Clinton is 3 and John is 2 in 1870. Who these people are is unknown at this time. Most assuredly, Clinton and John are most likely grandchildren from one of the boys. Further research is required. There is also Thomas Hall, Simon Whyde, and Samuel Freeman within the household. There is a Silas Baird living within the household in 1860. He is listed as being 18 years old at the time and being born in 1842 in Wabash County, Illinois. He is not their child as he is not listed in the 1850 Census with them

    The 1850 & 1860 Census has John being born in 1804

    Alberta Daniels Withrow created the memorial for John on November 12, 2005. She has him listed as John Washington. I have not seen any documentation to prove this so i am leaving it as John W. The death is proved by The Illinois Statewide Death Index, Pre-1916 so I am sure the birth and death dates are correct as the Death Index does state January 18, 1883. According to the memorial he is also the son of Adam Baird and Rebecca Moore. How true this is, is unknown.

    John married Rebecca Stewart on 30 Mar 1825 in Orange County, Indiana, United States. Rebecca was born on 12 Apr 1808 in Kentucky, United States; died on 10 Apr 1895 in Mount Carmel, Wabash, Illinois, United States; was buried in Mount Carmel, Wabash, Illinois, United States.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    Notes:

    Alberta Daniels Withrow created the memorial for Rebecca on November 12, 2005. She has her listed as Rebecca Marchant Stewart Baird.. I have not seen any documentation to prove this so i am leaving it as Rebecca Stewart. The death is proved by The Illinois Statewide Death Index, Pre-1916 so I am sure the birth and death dates are correct as the Death Index does state April 10, 1895. She also has John Stewart and Elizabeth as her parents. This is no proven on any documentation as of yet.
