This bible was published in 1866 in Philadelphia by John Edwin Potter.

This bible was in the possession of Joseph William Chandler for many years and then in possession of his wife after his death. Joseph William Chandler was the grandson of Joseph J. Sanders, the original owner. (On the front inside cover, in very faint writing, ” My Daddy’s, Deasey Sanders.”) After Joseph J. Sanders, it came into the possession of Deasey Ann Sanders Herriman, his daughter. She is the one who entered most of the family information. After her death, it was passed to her half-sister, Atilla Gerome Sanders Chandler, mother of Joseph William Chandler.  She entered information about her children. The information relating to Joseph J. Sander’s parents and siblings was entered at a much later date by Mrs. J W Chandler, which she obtained from a Sanders family member.

Following is exact wording found in script penmanship. This was entered
by Deasey SandersHerriman, daughter of Joseph J. Sanders:

SNOW Family Bible

24. October 2019 · Comments Off on SNOW Family Bible · Categories: Bible · Tags: , ,

This Bible has been in our family for many years. The Specks mentioned in it are our family. I’m not sure how E.W. Snow and the Reaves are related. All
of these families were around the Middleton area of Hardeman Co., TN.

The Holy Bible
Old and New Testaments
Published 1856
New York

First page
This book presented to E.W. Snow by J.P. Keatin a Virginian, both prisoners of  war. Captured at Fort Donaldson, TN., on February 16, 1862.

E.W. Snow’s Bible

Second page
Juley A. Reaves born September 23, 1825 died August 6, 1868
John Anderson Reaves born September 18, 1861
Sally H. Reaves born January 29, 1869
Frances Emily Reaves – Mississippi

Third page
Jim Speck born February 22, 1866
Hester Speck born January 26, 1867
Tom Speck born August 8, 1873
Charity Speck born November 1879

A lot of the writing is faded so I copied it as best I could. The Specks  mentioned above are related to the Hicks and Holloway’s through marriage.
