Son of John Bird and his wife, Rebecca Mintun Bird. Date of birth varies greatly among records; 1845 is perhaps the most likely year of birth. He was shown as 7 years old in the 1856 Iowa census, but just 4 years later, he was shown as age 14. His death certificate states he was born in 1857, which is clearly incorrect. The 1900 census states he was born in September 1845, which would have been about 9 months after his parents were married.
Oscar married Amelia Marie "Mollie" Lahrmann on 4 January 1876 in Henry county, Iowa. The family moved to LaGrange, Cook county sometime prior to the 1900 census. Oscar worked as a freight agent for a railroad.
