Does anyone have a clue as to the parents of the Rev. John Baird b. 1768 Md. He came to Kentucky as a young man, returned to Maryland and married Elizabeth Aydellott Oct. 4, 1794, Snow Hill, Worcester county, Md. Returned to Kentucky in 1795 and preached his first sermon August 7, 1796 at the home of his brother-in-law, Philip Reed. His original tomb stone read: SACRED to the Memory of the Rev. John Baird who departed this life April 17th, 1846 in the 78th year of his age, 54 years of which he spent in the Methodist Episcopal Church Calling sinners to repent. He was a exceptable Preacher, an affectionate Husband, a Kind Father and faithful Friend, Through death lives in the Harts of many.
