----------------------------------------
Per US Census - John was a carpenter. He worked on railroads in Kansas. According to his son, Milo's book, the family moved to Melones, CA around 1903, and his father worked for the mine. They later moved to Angels Camp just before 1910. He was a carpenter in the gold mines and built houses. He married Eva Louk in 1892, and they had 7 children, 6 were still living in 1910: Milo A, Ralph W, John L, Fred A, Richard E & Theodore G.
They purchased property in the old Angels Camp Chinatown section (the street is now called Birds Way.) They built a home on the property, but it was torn down and is now a parking lot.
Note: His son Milo Bird wrote a book "Melones Memories" about his childhood growing up in Melones. The book was published in 1985 and is a very interesting look into what life was really like in a small mining community. Milo was probably close to 85 when he wrote the book. He is buried in Cypress Lawn Cemetery in Coma, CA (#87567976).
