(I recently received this bible record from the DAR file
records. I have transcribed and noted when entries were difficult to read. The whereabouts
of the actual bible is unknown to me. All of the information is recorded on one page. The
bible was published by the New York American Bible Society in 1873. Clarence F. Davis was
the second husband of Nancy Elizabeth Standifer, daughter of James Anderson and Martha
Lawhon Standifer. The page is very difficult to read.)
