Samuel Ashton Foulkrod's Bible
Contributed

William J. & Jacqueline H. Foulkrod
Foreward
At least four different people have made entries on these two pages. Due to the entries recording the births of Samuel Ashton & Mary Ann (Edwards) Foulkrod's children, it is believed that the Bible was originally kept by Mary Ann, herself.
Mary Ann died in 1898, because she had been residing with her son, Samuel Allen Foulkrod, in 1880; because the entries on the reverse side are in a different handwriting; and because these entries record the births of Samuel Allen & Hannah (Fish) Foulkrod,--it is believed that Hannah next kept the Bible.
Because the Bible next surfaced in the possession of Bill's sister, Mary Ann (Foulkrod) Callahan, it must have been passed to their parents, Elmer Ellsworth & Mary Ellen (Brown) Foulkrod.
It was Mary Ann (Foulkrod) Callahan who gave Bill & Jackie a copy of the pages from the original Bible.
Today the exact location of the Bible is unknown. Mr. & Mrs. Callahan have both passed away, and the last recollection is that Mary Ann (Foulkrod) Callahan mentioned that she had it packed away in the attic.
