The Family Bible of Asa T. Hickman and A. Jane (Satchell) Hickman - Accomack Co., VA The History of this Bible is unknown. It came into my posession at the death of my grandfather Vernon Otho East in 1991. He was the son of George Otho East and Mary (Manie) Jane Hickman. So I assume it was passed on to her by her father and mother. The Bible was printed in 1884, so we can assume that it was maintained by Jane Hickman up to her death in 1894. The handwriting seems the same until just before their death. I have scanned the pages from the Bible and they are available upon request at my email address. I have transcribed these entries and they follow below: MARRIAGES ------------------------------ Asa T.
