DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Henry by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
Bird-6573 and Bird-5871 appear to represent the same person because: Name, parents, dates, locations are the same. Please explain why these are not a match. These two are duplicates and need to be merged. Please approve and merge.
Burd-5 and Bird-5871 appear to represent the same person because: It seems that he was probably born as Bird, and then changed his name to Burd as an adult. So I set this to merge as the profile ID LNAB should be Bird. Thanks!
Henry Shepard Bird Sr is my great grandfather. He never used the spelling Burd. He spelled his name Bird. Some of the next generation, my grandfather and some of his siblings used Burd. The gravestone on Henry Sr and his 2 wives' grave is spelled Burd because the tombstone was added later after the Burd spelling was being used.
