Transcribed by Janell Morrow Walker Warden, with her notes:
This Register, from the family bible, was started September 1, 1815 when Jacob A Kibler the first died. Handwriting changed throughout, but I am most certain that grandson Samuel Keebler/Kibler wrote many of the notes in the book. Note also wife of Jacob Keebler is referred to both as Mary and later as Polly, and that Jacob A Keebler the second is sometimes referred to as Jacob Keebler senior, while his son, the third Jacob A Keebler, is referred to as Jacob Keebler junior.
Got this from Chris Morris who lives in CA. I can not get in touch with her today. Chris Womak Morris had copied this register from the family of her grandfather William Burgess Barkley. William Burgess was the son of Daniel Burgess and Prudence Mary Ann Ingersol Barkley,
