Smith Family Bible, Union Parish Louisiana 

by Lyle Smith

The following data was taken from the Smith Family Bible by my father, John Lee Smith, 
in 1942. I do not know who had the Bible but he had access to it. These pages came out 
of a notebook called the Double Q. The Qs stood for quality and quantity. Note Book 
No. 174, Copyright O.P. Company. Dad first started using this notebook in 1933 as he 
kept a diary. The pages are hand written.
