    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: BURRISS FROHM RICHEY RITCHIE Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/hcB.2ACE/2619 Message Board Post: Looking for Family Bible of William Richey [Ritchie], deceased SC 1846: In the book THREADS OF ANCESTORS the author says that she copied from William Richey's Bible in the home of MRS. NESBIT BURRISS [Jennie Frohm] of Anderson, SC in 1926. In the book OLD SOUTHERN BIBLE RECORDS the compiler says [also] that this Bible belonged to Mrs. Nesbit Burriss of Anderson, SC and was copied by Leonard Andrea of Columbia, SC who sent it to the compiler in 1941. Oddly enough the only difference in the two transcriptions of the record of William's children is the birth day of his son Robert ... THREADS OF ANCESTORS shows it [correctly] as Dec 10, 1805 and OLD SOUTHERN BIBLE RECORDS shows it as Dec 5, 1805 which is probably a typo. Does anyone know if this Bible still exists and who the current owner is?
