W. H. Baird, Dental Surgeon, of Burlington, was born in Burlington, Iowa, on the 27th of June, 1853, and his parents are Rev. W. F. Baird and Rebecca (Harah) Baird, whose sketch appears elsewhere in this work. The Doctor was educated in the city of Burlington, and in 1874 entered the office of Drs. Smith and Cochrane, who are still engaged in business in this city, and began the study of dentistry. A year passed, and then the firm was dissolved, Mr. Baird continuing with Dr. Cochrane. Readily understanding mechanics, it was not long before he became proficient in his chosen profession, and in 1879 he began business for himself. In 1883, with the means he had accumulated, Dr. Baird attended the Dental Department of the Iowa University, and there received his diploma. He is a member of the State Dental Society, and in 1887 served as Vice President of the organization. He was united in marriage, in 1884, with Miss Effie Harris.
Dr. Baird is a man of sound practical judgment and logical common sense, and is greatly respected for his straightforward, honorable dealings with his patrons and friends. He is practically a self-made man, and has worked his way to a position of which he may well be proud.
