Byrd-4360 and Byrd-741 appear to represent the same person because: These appear to be the same person married to Jonathan Burleson. Information I have is her father was Rev William Byrd who lived not far from Tuscumbia. Both are same wedding date and same death date. Not sure yet on birth date as more research needed.
