Claud Baird Descendant

"I would like to contact the person who wanted to know who Claud Baird is on the webpage: OkieLegacy - Vol. 5, Iss. 12. I believe that he is my grandfather.

My father looked at you website and confirmed that Claud Baird, the poet, is my grandfather. There is more information on my grandfather and his family tree at the Woodward County Pioneer Families webpage. If you scroll down the webpage, there is a link for Claud & Nora Baird that has a bit of history on him. There is also a link to his parents, William & Carrie Baird, if you are interested. The other links to Bairds are my grandfather's brothers.

May I ask what your grandmother's name was and where she lived? I wonder if she knew my grandfather. The Pioneer website says: Mr. Baird attended Normal School at Alva. After attending Normal School, he taught school at Little Jewel and at Pleasant Valley. After World War I, he taught Industrial Arts in the Woodward High School. Moving to Stillwater, Oklahoma, about 1920, he taught in that school system before going into the cabinet and planeing mill business.

I don't know if our grandparents knew one another, but it is fun to wonder. I also appreciated your website, it was fun to peruse the wealth of information you have posted. Thank you." -- Susan Baird
