Some family recipes hold memories that last for generations, and are usually the simplest to make. Such is the family story of one of the family members at Midstate Mills, Cindy Gabriel.  Her grandmother Cat Cline, would bake dozens of Dr. Byrd Cakes at a time, then lovingly shared the cakes with her circle of friends, many widowed and scattered around Newton, N.C.  Cindy recalls the cakes being delivered in her dad's car, which was affectionately called "the widow wagon".  It was a simple act of kindness that bears repeating today.  One of the reasons that Mrs. Cline took this cake to widows was that it kept well, getting more moist with time, the goodness lasting for days.  
No one knows why this cake is called Dr. Byrd Cake, but this family recipe was years ahead of a close cousin, the Hummingbird Cake.  Either way, the taste is over the top.   The glaze is optional.   Dr. Byrd Cake By Tendabake ~ (Cakes)
