Note: This Bible has appeared on various
Internet sites with various transcription errors of omission (and "commission").
Location of original Bible is not known - entries were transcribed from
photocopies of three surviving Family Record pages. Title page and top
of first page are missing. The entries begin with a listing of the children
of John O'Quin and Grace Spivey, then continue with the family of James,
one of their sons.
