Tilden P. Vaughan Bible

Profile manager: Dave Vaughan [send private message]

There were two family bibles with hand-written notes in the section intended for adding Family Records. The first and original was originally owned by Tilden P. and Ida Mae Lewis Vaughan. And contained two pages: The wedding of Tilden P. and Ida Mae Lewis Vaughan, and the births of their children. These were written by Tilden P. Vaughan. The second bible was kept by Lucy Kathryn Vaughan Tippit. Judging from the hand writing and dates, she transcribed the original bible some time after her own marriage on 31 March 1934. After that the pen used changed and the hand writing began ageing.

From the first bible three pages were scanned: The first page of the bible, Bonds of Holy Matrimony, Births.

From the second bible five pages were scanned: The first page of the bible, Family Record, Children's Names, Marriages, Deaths.

The entries are from 1876 up to 2004.

This bible was entrusted to Lucy Kathryn Vaughan Tippit by Ida Mae Lewis Vaughan before she passed away. The bible itself is currently (2017) owned by Sara Beth Tippit Crockarell and are stored in her house in Jackson, Butts Co., GA .

Following is a transcription of the hand written pages by John David Vaughan 17 Mar 2017:
