Much of the information on the descendants of the Rev. James Maury Fontaine came from his bible which was in the possession of our family for over 200 years. A few years ago a cousin of mine donated it to the Gloucester Genealogical Society of Virginia.
I completed a transcription of this bible on 14 March 2010.
