of Westover Plantation
Parents:
Cap Thomas Taylor Byrd 1752–1821
Mary A Armistead 1753–1824
From Old Chapel Cemetery 1906 records:
DR. CHARLES CARTER BYRD of
"Chapel Hill," son of
Capt. Thomas T. and Mary
Armistead Byrd of "The Cottage."
He built "Chapel Hill" and lived there.
"In the grave beneath are deposited
the mortal remains of Charles Carter
Byrd who departed this life Dec. 14th,
1829, aged 30, cut off in the midst of
his days and the exertion of manly
ambition. As a Physician, successful
and tender in the discharge of his
duties, as a Friend beloved, as a
Father devoted, as a Husband seldom
equaled. She for whom he joined the
tenderest names dedicates this marble
to his memory, as a sad but heart felt
testimony of love and respect. Thus do
human hopes perish."
