Johnson Sept. 13th 1896 History of the Bible: This Bible was once in the possession of Lollie Young. She showed it to me when I visited her with my Grandmother Young in Anniston, Alabama, ca. 1972. Lollie inherited it from her mother, Sinie Ann McGill Young (1877-1963). Sinie must have obtained the Bible from the household of Frank and Nan Stephens McGill when they were killed in the car wreck in March, 1932. Nan was the youngest of the twelve children born to Alsey and Priscilla Stephens, and it was probably given to her prior to her mother’s death in 1895. The earliest entries were most likely made by Priscilla Ozier Stephens. The post- 1895 information was probably all entered by Nan Stephens McGill Additional Comments: Alsey Stephens was the son of Stephen and Mary Barrow Stephens.
