SPENCER FAMILY BIBLE

The page from the Nathan Spencer Family Bible was given to the Tyrrell County Genealogy Society by Bill McCartin of White Hall, MD. The entries have been transcribed here exactly as they appear with the exception that the birth and death of Nathan Spencer was listed in one sentence under deaths. Here the sentence has been broken down and listed under births and deaths. The order of the entries differs from the bible in that the marriages are listed first followed by the births and deaths.
