This
Bible was handed down to their daughter,
Salina, and then to her son, Sam.
My Grandpa (Theodore Hoxit) & Sam
were cousins. Grandpa went to visit
Sam in the hospital two weeks before
Sam's death. His daughter made a
copy for Grandpa. Sam's children and step
children are listed on page 2.
Don't know where Ninive was? Near
Balsam Grove in Gloucester Township,
Transylvania County - centered about half
way up Tanasee Gap
Road.

Salina Jane Owens was 6
months old when the Earthquake at Charleston
S.C. took place
1884.
The winter of
1883 was the coldest and deepest
snow.
On June 17th 1906
the largest Hail Storm
ever
known. Hail one foot
deep.
Rich mineral vein found on
the cold creek farm by
W.B.Owens and Capt M.R. Gleason
1907
Father J.B.
Woods and M.W. Wood murdered on February
19th 1900..
(Family Tradition notes - the mine turned out
to be of little value. The Woods murder
took place in Tennessee. John was
apparently caught in the cross fire and hit in
the knee and died from the infection about a
week later.)
