        [Judith Bone; email 19990129] On the inside of the front cover of a bible in possession of Judith Bone (1999) reads: Nancy Smith Devin bible bought in Princeton from the Bible Society Year 1833 Price $1,37. In about the middle of the Bible there are about eight pages of family genealogy. Most of it in one person's writing, but there are things added by some one else later. The book is old and I do not take it out and touch it much as the pages are falling apart. This Bible was Nancy's and then to her daughter Mary Elizabeth (Smith) DeuFriend. After her death, it passed to her daughter Esther Devin (DeuFriend) Sullivan/Castor/Morgan, my Father's Aunt. After Ester's death, the Bible came to my Dad's house and my step mother sent it to me.
