This Bible was bought by Allen Freeman about 1992 in a book store sale in Tyler, Smith County Texas. He bought it as a car lot load and had it in storage until May 2012 of this year. He had moved to Georgia and decided to go through all the books he had when he found it and decided to look through it. When he found the family records he went online to FindaGrave and that’s when he found James Speer Sr. memorial that I had placed and he contacted me.
