There were no Sarah Bird in Barrie when I checked some time ago, if it is her married name then her husband may be listed but she wasn't.Larry wrote:Hi Graham, I do seem to recall she gave birth for a second time.Graham Banks wrote:
Yes it has, but I felt it was worth asking again in case anybody knew anything further.
Cheers,

To lose interest in something like chess programming, all it takes
is something to preoccupy you, something like a new job, a divorce,
a bankruptcy, or in her case, a birth. Nothing is permanent except
change.
Terry mentioned he does not know her married name. If her name
is Sarah Bird, then her married name is Bird, according to my logic.
She was married before she appeared on the chess scene, I think
you will find.
I remember she was an avid chess program enthusiast. Once she
showed a shot of her computer screen. It was more or less filled
with chess program icons.

PS I do get your point that it seems out of character for her not to
respond to a message letting us know all is ok.
I don't know the name of the husband.
Also people can be unlisted, it can be hard to pinpoint the right person when all you have is a name, not sure if maiden or married and only a rough location as Barrie may also include some regions just outside the city.
Maybe I'll resume the search. It took me years to find someone who didn't want to be found.
It's very bizarre she replied to no one, no one at all. Most people don't do that and she was the kind of person to stay in touch regardless.
So it would get you thinking...people unfortunately die tragically...I hope this is not the case.
