The Bible Monitor began publication in October, 1922. It was edited by B.E.Kesler of Poplar Bluff, MO. It was way too late to record any information concerning the Francis Stump family of Kentucky. The connection of the Stump family with the Monitor is through the Clarence Stump family of IN and PA. For several years, a son, Paul Stump, of Englewood, OH has been the chairman of the Publication Board of the Dunkard Brethren Church, which has oversight over the Bible Monitor. The Editors of the Bible Monitor have been B.E.Kesler, 1922-1932; L.W.Beery, 1932-1946; Howard J. Surbey, 1946-1969; Walter Bird, 1969-1975; Milton Cook 1975 - Milton Cook _____________________________________________________________ Click here to get you high school diploma (GED) in days http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL2121/fc/Ioyw6i3l9xo0BXKLrUIR5UKkX7rlrj4DrkxeiCgRxwtrFR13tNp21S/
