Kilgore's Luceme Apmts No 404 Center St Wilkinsburg Pa June 17, 1921 Mr Kilgore says his grandfather, Jesse Kilgore, son of Capt David Kilgore was married twice, the three last children being by his second wife. He has brought out the big Bible of his great grandfather David Kilgore which bears date of New York 1792 Hodge & Campbell & in it on a piece of paper written by his father Jesse B. Kilgore is the following: "This Bible is 109 years old (evidently written in 1801), was the Property of Col David Kilgore an old Revolutionary soldier and now is the property of J.B. Kilgore south Walnut St, Blairsville". It does not have the record of the children of David Kilgore, but does have of his son Jesse Kilgore & his grandson Jesse B. Kilgore.
