Does anyone out there have an Arron Bible missing between 1873 and 1880? He is my great Grandfather and this is all I have. Other than he was born in Tenn. Any information would help alot. Would love to have help solving this.

Aaron Bible is in our family. My computer has lost it's internet connection so I'm away from home checking my email and my notes are home.
From my memory, I think you can go to Cocke County, Tenn. and Aaron might be on the 1850 census. I will keep your email and send more later.

Have you checked out the Bible Family website at rootsweb?
There are two Aaron Bibles there who could possibly be yours. It is a great resource.

Hi Ruth,

Are you 'Addie Ruth', daughter of Clara Katherine Bible, granddaughter of Henry Allen Bible? {You say you are related to the names of "Bible, Guilliams, Bigby, Foreman" so I hope that's the right name!}

I'm sorry but I don't know, exactly, who your Aaron Bible(s) parents are. :-( I've been working with Debra since 1998, now and then. We THINK we've narrowed it down but we can't prove it. The most likely person is John M. Bible who had a son named (only) A. E. Bible in abt 1853 but that's not the only possibility.

I'll write you at your email address tomorrow.

My Great Grandfather named Aaron was also from Tenn Cocke county, Not sure if its the same aaron bible would love to hear from you, Kathy in Missouri

Kathy,
I believe that your Aaron Bible is the son of Joseph & Susan (Susanna) Smith Bible found in the 1860 Cocke Co TN census & the 1870 Ste. Genevieve County MO census. Joseph & Susan had quite a few children with Aaron, Ezra and Elizabeth being the younger ones. I show Aaron Bible married Mary Bayless in St. Francois co MO on Dec. 13, 1877--record was filed on Jun 12, 1878 by A.A. Rudy, JP. Ezra Bible married Catherine E. Ferguson, daughter of Churchman Ferguson, in St. Francois co MO on Jan. 30, 1879.
Susan Smith Bible is a sister of my ggg grandfather Isaac Smith born in Greene co TN.
