THE BARD FAMILY
A HISTORY AND GENEALOGY OF THE
BARDS OF "CARROLL'S DELIGHT"
TOGETHER WITH
A CHRONICLE OF THE BARDS
AND GENEALOGIES OF
THE BARD KINSHIP
It was researched, compiled, and written by George Overcash Seilhamer, Esq. G. O. Seilhamer was commissioned to do the necessary research, and write the book by Senator Thomas Robert Bard. Approximately 300 original books were printed and distributed, some to Bard family members, and many to libraries in California and in other states. If you wish to purchase a reprinted edition of this "Bard Book," or The Bard Family on CD-ROM, leave E-mail, or otherwise contact us via one of the means listed below. The reprints sold from this site will now be officially numbered, and entered into our on-line Bard Book Registry database. One of the ways you might recognize your family as being related to our Bard line may be by way of the mention of a Son of Archibald Beard (Bard) namely; Richard Bard (b. Feb. 8, 1736, d. Feb 22, 1799) who was, along with his family, captured by Delaware Indians on April 13, 1758. Richard's small son John Bard (b. Sep. 27, 1757, d. Apr. 13, 1758) was killed by the captors, and his wife Catharine Poe Bard (b. Jun. 3, 1737, d. Aug. 31, 1811) was taken hostage and later ransomed by Richard after his escape. Richard wrote a poem entitled; "THE RICHARD BARD BALLAD" otherwise known as "THE WOEFUL BALLAD" or "BARD'S LAMENT" that describes the ordeal.

Although this site may seem a little confusing at first, it really is quite straight forward. Once you view the starting pages (replicas of the printed Bard Family book's first few pages), which is the way almost everyone first accesses this site, you will not need to view those pages again, so you will probably want to bookmark the Table of Contents page, this Main Menu page, and the What's New page, and enter the site one of those ways in the future. You may also want to fill out the URL Minder registration form - on the pages listed above, so that you will not have to manually return to the site periodically to search for changes. Click on "Site Introduction and Overview" below to access a brief site description which explains what everything is, and where everything is:
