Notes for Abram Grimes Laird:
[Laird Family Tree 2000a.FTW]
He is not mentioned in any of the transcription letters after November 17, 1850, but even his brother Joseph when he writes to his cousin John W. P. Laird September 9, 1864 does not mention that he was born. Joseph says, "We are nine in number that are living (including his parents). 3 girls and 4 boys are living. One of my brothers is dead. He has been dead over two years." He was 18 months old when he died." The 18 months old baby was Abraham Laird. Perhaps he was named for Abram Grimes who was John and Christiana's first child and who must have died very young.
