"Ella and Emma taught school and were considered very successful school teachers. Outlines of their school work which have been preserved would be creditable for teachers of today, and the penmanship is beautiful."
"Emma, the youngest of the family was to be married to Charles N. Johnston in the fall, and had some quilts and a few pieces of furniture in readiness. On the 29th of March she, too, fell asleep in Jesus, and was buried the next day." Source: Baird Family History

BAIRD. - Near Columbus, Ia., of measles, Miss Ella M. Baird, on March 18, 1887, aged 27 years; Miss Emma C. Baird on March 29, 1887, aged 19 years, and March 31, 1887, Miss Lina Baird, on her 23rd birthday.
These three intelligent and amiable young ladies were daughters of John and Mary Baird, and faithful members of the United Presbyterian church of Columbus City, IA. Each one in turn gave very satisfactory evidence that their peace had been made with God, and this fact proved great consolation to the family in their three-fold affliction.
