David,
This was an interesting question, and the book that is reproduced at this link is an real piece of history I would have not found without your question.

Looking at this bird guide this morning I noted that the first bird listed is one that is long gone. Anyone know what this bird was? A hint is that it was listed as number 382. by the American Ornithological Union in about 1905.
