    3. I am looking for anyone who might know of a family Bible for the Hinkle family. Supposedly the Bible I'm interested in has a notation in it about my great grandmother, Nancy L. Hinkle (m. Pickett). The story is that she was traded as an infant to the Hinkle family for supplies her real parents needed to continue traveling west. At first I doubted this story but my cousin said he saw it himself at her funeral and that her "sister" brought it with and showed her kids and grandkids. Apparently Grandma never knew the truth about her origin. The fact that my cousin saw it himself and, in thinking about it, she never looked anything like her brothers and sisters - makes me believe it's true. If you know of any Hinkles, please ask around to see if they know of such a story or the existence of a Hinkle Bible that can be checked. I know one of her sisters was named of Bessie and brothers, one by the name of Brie. Shirley
