Though this is not specifically written in a Bible, the entries on this paper are made at different times which suggests a similar family record. One interesting note: the record begins with the name Lettitia, not Samuel.  This may have begun as her record.  The age calculation for Lettitia is incorrect based on the dates given. Samuel and Lettitia are buried at the Wilson Cemetery in Transylvania County, NC
