Hi Sandy, and thank you for passing on Tillie's story about how the
Stone family Bible came to be in D.C.  I have been there, held it, and
wondered and marveled that my ancestor, William Stone "seenyear" entered
all those births.  One of the mysteries the Bible brought forth was his
use of "ME" when he entered his birthplace as Guilford.  Since
two-letter mail codes were not invented, turns out it didn't mean Maine.
It meant "me" as in himself being born in Guilford, N.C.
