My name is Martha Tillman Brown. My grandfather was Fred A. Bishop the architect of the Byrd Theatre. I remember the theatre, and the bowling alley in the basement I believe. I would be delighted to hear more about the Byrd, my grandfather, and anything else he designed. I remember his home then in the country in Richmond. I remember it as a stone house with a spring house at the river or large creek on the property. There was a black Walnut tree in front.

Please let me hear. Thanks!

Hi, My name is Jaynie. My grandfather was William Byrd from Polasky Va. He was a twin and had 17 brothers and sisters. He had 8 children of his own and 2 of them were sons named Robert William and Richard Byrd. Id like to talk with anyone who may have some history on the Byrd family. Just feel we are related somehow. Im a country singer and they all call me the singin' songbird!! hope to hear from anyone who would have any information. I came across your web site after looking into historical theatres which I love. Thanks
