My husband and I spent our vacation this year in Dickson, Tennessee. While
there I had the opportunity of seeing my great-grandfather's Bible.

American Bible Society
New York, 1855

The following births were listed. The inscriptions were very hard to
read--the dates I have listed were what I thought they were! Also, each inscription
read "in the year of our Lord."

James H. Tidwell
September 28, 1829

Elisah C. Tidwell
(NOTE: This confuses me, because Grandma Tidwell was Rebecca Catherine
Perry--maybe Elisah was a nickname--the birthdate is correct)
January 13, 1833

Mary Harriet Tidwell
September 9, 1853

Winna Tidwell
July 9, 1854

John H. Tidwell
November 7, 1855

Joseph Tidwell
January 31, 1857

William D. Tidwell
December 30, 1857

Cynthia Palestine Tidwell
November 14, 1859

Luisah C. Tidwell
June 20, 1862

Augustin Tidwell
July 25, 1863

Sealy Allis Tidwell
July 29, 1865

Hiram James Tidwell
April 7, 1867

July S. Tidwell
January 30, 1869

Benjamin Rufus Tidwell (This is my grandfather!)
Marcyh 24, 1870

Susan Rebecka Tidwell
January 14, 1872

Arazona Elizabeth Tidwell
August 25, 1876

Some of these children were not listed in the various census records, so I
imagine they must have passed away as children.
