Betty H. Baird |
|
Betty H. Baird is holding up the 1792 land patent given to Joseph McCune. She still owns some of the property and lives near where the original James McCuskey land was. James bought it from Joseph McCune. She was invited to join us at our reunion and was really delightfully gracious.
