TRIVIA: Did you know that Edwin BOOTH, brother of John Wilkes BOOTH who shot Abraham LINCOLN, saved the life of Robert Todd LINCOLN, son of Mary TODD & Abraham LINCOLN? Yes... it's strange, but true.
The BARDs are kin (indirectly related, through marriage), to the PARKERs, TODDs, & LINCOLNs. (See the Bard Book page 447.)

Today I have received the material about Bard's castle. Tomorrow or Monday I'll send it to you. Now I want to tell you about a coincidence: In Turin (we are one million people) there are four or five Bards. Where I have my office, I am on the ground floor. On the first floor lives the representative for the Turin's land of an American company of medical equipment. Do you want to guess the name of this company? The name is BARD S.P.A.! Isn't it odd that on the same street, at the same number, in the same house there are two different Bard mail boxes? (In fact, I often have the wrong mail delevered to me.)

I have read the BARD genealogy line and I think that is wonderful to know your origin. Is very interesting to know the life of ancestors. Of my family I know only from my greatgrandfather, Pietro BARD, then my grandfather, Giuseppe BARD that patented a plaster for decorating the fronts of houses, my father, Pietro BARD (1925-1998) that work in his little plaster company, and me, Paolo BARD. (1959) engineer. My encyclopedia says: The name LONGOBARDI derives from "lunga alabarda" (long halberd) or "lunga barba" (long beard). I think that it is probable that some BARDs derived from BEARD because at one time there were no computers, printers, etc., and it was possible to write or speak a name in different ways.

TRIVIA: We have become a worldwide family, a family of members who, despite their diversity, view themselves as one. Some people proudly call their global family "Urquharts." It is a privilege to be an Urquhart; and to be part of an ancient noble family, a family which gave us life and which adds special meaning to our lives; and which, in turn, depends upon our efforts to make it the best it can become. With our ancient motto, "Meane Weil, Speak Weil, and Doe Weil.", one could hardly have a better code of conduct. Clan Urquhart has had a long commitment to civilization at its finest. Let us live by this motto. Let us teach our motto, by word and deed, to our children and to the world." Click on this link to see more: http://www.urquhart.org/message.html

| TRIVIA: On page 125 of Steve Thomas' new book (2000); JonBenet, he describes the legal acronym BARD as; Beyond A Reasonable Doubt. (He believes JonBenet Ramsey's mother Patsy Ramsey committed the crime. I agree, except I think the mother may have been in some type of altered mental state, involving multiple personality, perhaps a violent male or other hostile personality brought out in therapy.) |

TRIVIA: just got a note from my sister Jana in SB. She sent me an article of portrait paintings which showed a Mr. and Mrs. Bard of Colbrook, Connecticut. Mr. is holding a newspaper which reads: "Hartford/April 21, 1849" and Mrs. is holding a Bible inscribed: "Bard Family". The pair of paintings bought $5175 in recent auction. This was from the "Maine Antique Digest", February, 1999.

TRIVIA: Used somewhat loosely, the term "bardo" refers to the state of existence intermediate between two lives on earth. According to Tibetan tradition, after death and before one's next birth, when one's consciousness is not connected with a physical body, one experiences a variety of phenomena. These usually follow a particular sequence of the clearest experiences of reality of which one is spiritually capable. For the spiritually advanced the bardo offers a state of great opportunity for liberation, since transcendental insight may arise with the direct experience of oneness and reality.

TRIVIA: What is a Bard?...
A teller or teacher of morals through stories and parables?
One who searches for and teaches about insight & Truth?
A weaver of dreams and a revealer of the true nature of reality?
A reciter of histories and oral traditions?
One who observes the world and tells or writes about what it really means?
(Some of us are still doing, or aspiring to do these things, today.) Was Gandhi a Bard? Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King? Saint Francis of Assisi? Jesus Christ? Yes, these were all Bards by definition, and united through a lineage of spiritual genealogy; by virtue of their Oneness in brotherhood and fullfillment of purpose.

| TRIVIA: A poet, especially one who writes impassioned, lyrical, or epic verse. Bards were originally Celtic composers of eulogy and satire; the word came to mean more generally a tribal poet-singer gifted in composing and reciting verses on heroes and their deeds. As early as the 1st century AD, the Latin author Lucan referred to bards as the national poets or minstrels of Gaul and Britain. In Gaul the institution gradually disappeared, whereas in Ireland and Wales it survived. The Irish bard through chanting preserved a tradition of poetic eulogy. In Wales, where the word bardd has always been used for poet, the bardic order was codified into distinct grades in the 10th century. Welsh tradition: www.britannica.com/eb/article-9032170/eisteddfod |
