The correct name is Dunnan S. Byrd. I don't have absolute proof that he is the son of George Byrd, Jr., but it has been family knowlege for generations. The most conclusive data I know of was that the 1850 and 1860 Marion County, Ms. Census shows him born in South Carolina and George Byrd, Jr. is the only Byrd in southern Ms. old enough to be his father. Dunnan and his older brother Sherrod moved to Marion County, Ms. before 1830 and later Dunnan moved to what is now Pearl River County He was b. cir. 1804 in Sumter Dist., South Carolina and d. cir. 1868 in Marion County, Ms. He m. Sarah Taylor, b. cir. 1810, Ga., dau. of Charles Taylor.

I too am a descendant of Dunnan (Donnon Snow Byrd). His daughter Helena Mintoria Byrd married William Harris O'Banion from Leesville, Vernon Parish, Louisiana. Their son, John Dunnan O'Banion is the father of my great grandmother, Nancy Helena O'Banion. She married David Elijah Roberts and their son, William Houston Roberts is my grandfather. He married Anna Ruth Miller and their children, Juanita Ruth Miller and William Houston Roberts Jr. (my father). It is nice to learn of a distant relative.
