I have been in contact with your cousin Lyle Perrigo of Alaska. He gave me a copy of the book and it has helped immensely. Please contact me at thelairds@att.net.

You share your name with my brother Joseph Laird. My grandmother and your grandfather were brother/sister. Buneta Doras Eyrich was my grandmother. My father was named after your father. My dad's name was Robert Gerald Laird, the middle name having the harsh GRR sound to it. I have much information the Laird family branch of the Eyrich tree.
