okay here it is folks:

I have a Buckingham Bird fom Ipswich who married a Grace Sarah Mills in 1872 in Mitcham

His father was Buckingham Bird, her father was William Mills Decorator.
Witness wee William Mills and what looks likes Hamish Mills (could have been Harriet??)

I have another Rueban Bird basket maker married Abigail Horn in 1872 fathers Thomas Bird a brazier and James Horn Basket maker.

Thomas was married to a Suke Bird and my cousin and I beleive this to be Susannah Mills, as they appear often next door to our families


These folks we think tie in with our Taylors, Coopers, Smiths as well!!!!  So lets see where this family take us?

I really want to establish a family line for the birds out of this and also see who connects.
