Hale-Dougherty Bible

On 18 June 1839, Rosamond J. Hale, a daughter of Lewis Hale and Elizabeth Bourne, married Charles Dougherty in Grayson County, Virginia.

Thus was started the Dougherty Family Bible into which was recorded the birth, marriage and death data for the entire family. Likewise, the same data was recorded for the entire Lewis Hale family.

The bible has survived over the generations, including the journey the Dougherty family made when they moved from Elk Creek, Virginia to Texas in 1851 and then on to Southern California by Covered Wagon Train in 1868.

The Family Record pages of the bible are reproduced below. A typed up summary of the personal data in the bible is also provided to assist the reader to read the original text. Supplementary information has been added in the summary to supply additional details. Since this supplementary information is not a part of the original bible text, it appears within brackets [ ].

Notes:
1 - Child of Lewis Hale Jr. and Elizabeth Bourne.
2 - Child of Charles Dougherty and Rosamond J. Hale.
3 - Son of J. B. Davenport and Elvira B. Hale, adopted by Lewis Hale and Elizabeth Hale (nee Bourne) after the death of Elvira Davenport, nee Hale.
