Note Regarding the Ford Family Bible:

The following is information copied from a Bible which was in the possession of Birdie Ogletree Ford (b. 25 Nov 1897) until her death in May, 1982. Aunt Bert, as she was fondly called by the family, was the widow of W. Clifford Ford (b. 18 Nov 1897); she was Bob’s Great Aunt and resided on W. Central Avenue in Griffin, GA, across from the Old Mill.

After her death, this Bible was in our possession until about 1992 when we placed it with a grandson of James Carlton Ford (b. 6 Feb 1905). We have provided information for clarification by utilizing parentheses.
