Transcribed from the original by
Barbara Smallwood Stock,
Marietta, Georgia, who has possession of the original bible and has had
it restored. An inscription inside the cover reads "August 4, 1919, I will &
bequeath to my grandaughter Mamie Crawley this Bible." Is is believed to
have been the bible of James Long Duncan or "Daddy Duncan," as he was affectionately
known by his grandchildren & great-grandchildren. James Long Duncan
was the ggg-grandfather of Barbara Smallwood Stock.
