Laird family.
Biographical notes:
Thomas Kees Laird was from Austin, Minnesota, attended Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota from approximately 1912-1916, resided in Michigan and New York, and eventually, by the early 1920s, came to reside in various parts of New Mexico (Willard, Mountainair, Los Lunas, and Albuquerque). He married Minnie Hazle Kennedy, from New York, around 1922 or 1923 (as reflected by a name change on letters addressed to her during that time). The Lairds had a daughter, Margaret, in 1925. While Minnie Kennedy Laird worked at the U.S. Indian School in Santa Fe and taught high school history classes, Thomas K. Laird served on the Valencia County and Mountainair school boards. He was school superintendent in Mountainair in the late 1920s, and in Los Lunas in the early 1930s.
