I believe Bill Murphy included this Bible and the Loftin Bible as one Bible [in his Dobbs Co. publications] and they are both in the same file in the Archives, but if one looks at the design around the edges, one can see the Bibles are separate publications. --CPM Pugh Bible Births Elizabeth Bryan was born February the 18th 1737 Sarah Pugh was born September the 29th 1760 Leueza Pugh was born November the 9 day of 1762 Stephin Pugh was born March the 3rd 1765 Rachel Pugh was born May the 31 1767 Penelope Pugh was born February the 7 day 1773 William Pugh was born December 2? 1775 Lewis Pugh was born September the 26 1770 Bryan Pugh was born November the 6 1778 Mary Pugh daughter of John Coart and Mary his wife was born May the 2 1784 on Saturday 6 O'clock in the morning.
