• Notes

  According to a note written by Ann Richmond Sewell, Elizabeth Keebler Bacon bought the Bible in Washington County, Tennessee on June 13, 1835 for $2.50. Elizabeth Keebler Baconn gave it to her granddaughter Sarah Elizabeth (Lizzie) Bacon Richmond, who gave it to her granddaughter Ann Richmond (now Sewell), when Ann was about 15. and living next door to Lizzie in Cleveand. Tennesee. Ann spent her adult life in Searcy. Arkansas. By 2000, the Bible's pages were all in plastic sheathes in a loose-leaf binder in her home. At some point, Ann had removed the register to copy it (probably to send the copy to me) and the register never found its way back to the Bible. When Ann died in 2021, the Bible (with just a copy of the register) was passed on to her granddaughter, Elizabeth Sewell Geiger (Elizabeth Keebler Bacon's 4th great-granddaughter). A scanned copy of the register is in this database, attached to the Source Citations that refer to it. and thus to the people whose names and dates are supported by it. - Robin Richmond, Ann Sewell's nephew

  
  

1. The people or families that this page links to use this source in one or more "citations"; i.e. one or more facts in the record is supported by this source.
2. If you see the same name more than once in the list, then there are multiple people with that name in the database.
   (I'd like to add the person's birth & death dates to the list, but I'm not sure how hard that will be.
3. Media items (which are generally document images) associated with Sources are always associated with a citation, not directly with the Source. For instance, there's no generic "1920 U.S. Census" media image. Rather, the media images associated with the 1920 U.S. Census are images of specific Census pages with information about specific people.
4. You may select the "Media" link in the horizontal menu just above the information table to see links to all of the media items associated with this source. But following that route, there is no way to tell which citations (which records) are associated with an image.
5. This list of records that this list is "linked to" does not reveal which records are associated with media items.
6. To find a source citation media item from list of linked people or families, you must
   1. Follow a hyperlink above to a person or family,
   2. Then diplay Media items on that page,
   3. and - if this Source shows up as a media item, click on the appropriate thumbnail image or the thumbnail placeholder (which looks like a camera).
