The quote "Let the dead bury the dead" was spoken by Atticus Finch in the novel "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee. Atticus is explaining to Scout that it is important to focus on the living and the present rather than being consumed by the past.
If by the "narrator" you are referring to Scout Finch from the movie version of To Kill a Mockingbird, then there are four; Scout, her brother Jem, her father Atticus, and their cook Calpurnia.
I am not sure if you mean the symbol of actual birds in the novel, or the symbol of the mockingbird. But, you're probably talking about the mockingbird, because it's a huge symbol in the book. Here it goes:The mockingbird symbolizes the innocent people who are hurt in the novel. When Jem is given a gun, Atticus tells him that he should not shoot at a mockingbird. The mockingbird, he explains, doesn't bother anyone and is happy beautifying the world with its song. It is an innocent creature. In a metaphorical sense, Scout, Atticus, Jem, Tom (the black man who was accused of rape), Boo Radley, and even Calpurnia were "mockingbirds." They only wanted to live their simple lives, but were preyed upon by negative influences.Atticus, Jem, and Scout were mocked and hated because of Atticus's role defending a black man. Scout and Jem were nearly killed by such hate in the form of the deranged and violent Bob Ewall. Tom is killed by this hatred when he is shot to death trying to escape from prison. Boo Radley was also a mockingbird, living an innocent life. His stubborn, proud father separated him from society by locking him up inside his own home. Calpurnia and the black community was debased and scorned by predjudiced people. Each character seemed to be a "mockingbird." As Atticus said, it was wrong to hurt such innocent creatures.
The book never goes into detail about Atticus' service in the Alabama legislature. His length of office, or whether or he held office while living at Finch's landing or in Maycomb (where the bulk of the story takes place.) However, in Alabama it was common for young lawyers to run for legislature to build their name recognition and bolster their practice. Usually after a term or two they would retire to private practice. Author Harper Lee's father was a lawyer and she likely knew of the customs of Alabama lawyer-legislators.
The narrator of To Kill a Mockingbird is Scout. At first, there are two other people she lives with, Atticus and Jem. Later on in the novel, Aunt Alexandra comes to live with the family bringing the count up to a total of three others living with Scout.

Atticus says he has pity on Mr. Ewell's daughter, Mayella, because he sees her as a victim of her father's abuse and her harsh living conditions. He empathizes with her difficult situation and recognizes the lack of love and care in her life. Atticus believes that Mayella's actions are driven by fear and loneliness rather than malice.
Atticus is a wise man, committed to justice and equality, and his parenting style is based on fostering these virtues in his children-he even encourages Jem and Scout to call him "Atticus" so that they can interact on terms as equal as possible. Throughout the novel, Atticus works to develop Scout's and Jem's respective consciences, through both teaching, as when he tells Scout to put herself in a person's shoes before she judges them, and example, as when he takes Tom Robinson's case, living up to his own moral standards despite the harsh consequences he knows he will face. Atticus is a kind and loving father, reading to his children and offering them comfort when they need it, but he is also capable of teaching them harsh lessons, as when he allows Jem to come with him to tell Helen Robinson about Tom's death. At the end of the novel, when Atticus believes that Jem killed Bob Ewell, he tries to talk Heck Tate, the sheriff, out of calling the death an accident-Atticus's standards are firm, and he does not want his son to have unfair protection from the law.
