was a Virginian, and was brought to Missouri in his childhood by his
father, William Hubbard, and settled in Montgomery county, of which 
they were among the pioneers.  Bird Hubbard was married in that county
to Miss Sultana Grooms, and was engaged in manufacturing tobacco until
the breaking out of the war, when he enlisted in a Missouri cavalry
regiment, United States army, and served until the close of the war,
when he returned to his family and engaged in farming.  About 1875 he
