Martha "Mattie" BAIRD, born on 21 Mar 1868, Watauga County, North Carolina; married Noah J. ISAACS; died on 16 Apr 1930, Watauga County, North Carolina.

(A Joseph Baird is shown, age 21, as a grandson in the 1880 census enumeration with Alexander Baird and Nancy Vanderpool Baird). In the 1870 Watauga Co. NC census Phebe Baird, age 34, is enumerated with her sister Elizabeth Baird Wilson, widow of Hiram Wilson. Also a Joseph A., age 12, is shown with them . Elizabeth Baird and Hiram Wilson had no children in the 1860 census, so Joseph may belong to Phoebe Baird. The 1880 Watauga Co. NC census shows a Pheba Baird, age 44, phthisic, with children: Martha Baird, 14; Jane Baird, 12; Alexander Baird, 8; and Jonathan Baird, 3. (Sonny Vanderpool)
