John Howell's bible was by C. S. Sherman & Co., 1830 and written just
inside "Sandytown, N. J. - July 16, 1832". As of August 1936, it was
in the possession of his daughter, Sarah Kitchen. John & Mariett's
marriage and their children's births & deaths are listed within. It

1838 for Michigan - this was written in the bible in pencil. They
were pioneer settlers in the township of Stockbridge, settling on
land he obtained from the government. He had to clear the land and
built a log cabin & later erected a frame house which is still
