JOSEPH
THOMPSON BIBLE
This is a transcription of a photo copy of a photo copy from a Thompson
Bible. It is presumed to be the Bible of Joseph Thompson of Jessamine
County. Unfortunately, I do not know who made the original copy or who has
the Bible today. I think that the copy was made 30 or so years ago. A
cousin of my cousin, who lives in Lexington, got a copy last summer
following the death of an aunt of his. It is unfortunate that the copy is
such that some of the dates are not readable. I have noted them as _ _ as
needed.
