AAFA KENTUCKY BIBLE AND FAMILY RECORDS
Greenup Jenkins Bible

By Lynn D. Shelley, #0484
From Published Sources

From BIBLE RECORDS AND FAMILY INFORMATION OF RESIDENTS (PAST AND PRESENT) OF MERCER COUNTY, KENTUCKY.
Compiled by Alma Ray Sanders Ison for the Harrodsburg Historical Society, 1986, page 33.


GREENUP JENKINS BIBLE


The Holy Bible containing the Old and New Testaments stereotyped by James Conner for the American Bible Society, New York, 1828. (contributed by Nancye Powell Ison)

No entries mention Alfords but note at end of listings:

A number of names written inside book, including:
  • Larkin Epperson
  • John Richard Beegle
  • Lucinda M. Beegle
  • John Alford
  • Elizabeth Alford
  • Mary Beegle, January 15, 1834


    AAFA NOTES: According to the Bible record, Greenup Jenkins married Mary Ellen _____ who was born March 4, 1812. WAS SHE AN ALFORD? AAFA does not recognize this family. Several Jenkins-Alford marriages occurred in Kentucky in the families of Jacob and Charles Alford of Mercer and Garrard Counties. But if John and Elizabeth Alford were a couple, these KY families don't fit. If anyone can make the connection here, please let us know.
