Her name was Lucinda Frances Stephens. The records about the Burch family consists of copies of pages from the family bible of William L. Burch. There is a small note before the bible pages which says that Benjamin Burch died in Lincoln Co., KY and that the Burch Bible was in the possession of Dr. Samuel Moore Shiver of Atlanta in 1960. The film is "Crawford: family tree: compiled by Lucinda Frances, 1849- and Sara Stephens White (added author). There are two microfilm reels but they contain records of other families, hardly anything about the Crawford family. The number of the film with the Burch Bible is: "41st (last) family on film" - FHL US/CAN Film [288184] First page shown: BIRTHS Benjamin Burch and Jane married February 20, 1756 #Thomas Burch was born January 20, 1757 #Sarah Burch was born October 4, 1758 #William S.?
