Also in the bible was a ribbon for a "Basketball Receiption" on March 5 and 6 (no year given) as well as a business card for a "Mrs John Mills" with an old phone number (only four numbers in the phone number so it must be an older one). Since these items came with this Bible, they will go to the winning bidder..perhaps they relate to family history or family friendships or activities in some way. Here is what else I could find out from some research I did on some Genealogy and family ancestry websites, beore I listed this Bible - but please note that my research was just the beginning and I'm sure many other connections could be discovered, with a bit more time and energy: So far, I discovered that: In addition to containing family history on the Greeson family, bible is connected to members of the Davisson family, as well as the Barnhart family. The Greesons and/or Stringers interconnect at some point with these family names or areas: Bertinchamps Scott Hackleman Sailors Saint-Paul Davisson My research is only very preliminary so I've provided what I could find out at this point. Hopefully, this will help someone to make a connection. If it helps any, this bible was found in INDIANA and I believe that the family members lived in Indiana for at least part of their lives as there were some genealogical listings for both Greesons and Stringers in Indiana. 1 pic saved filed under greeson ************ Marriages Carolyn J.
