Birdie (Minerd) Thomas
(1890- ? )

Birdie Ethel (Minerd) Thomas was born in May 1890 in Dunbar, Fayette County, PA, the daughter of Andrew R. and Annie (Rhodes) Minerd.

Birdie's parents separated when she was young. She and her mother and sisters moved to Pittsburgh, residing with her grandmother at 814 Aiken Avenue. Tragedy struck in 1913, when Birdie's father was killed falling down some steps at a hotel in Dunbar.

On March 22, 1915, Birdie married George Thomas (1886- ? ), the son of Frederick and Melinda (McLaughlin) Thomas of Uniontown, PA. At the time, George was a mechanic, and resided at 5837 Ellsworth Avenue in Pittsburgh.

Nothing further is known of their lives.
