BUNKER. -- On the flyleaf of an old Bible, printed in Boston, Mass.,
in 1813 and now owned in Dover, N.H., is written the name "Aaron

Durham N.H." On the reverse of the title-page of the New Testament
is the following record:

This record refers to the children of Aaron and Sally P. (Fernald) Bunker
of Durham, N.H., and the marriages of these children, but not their
birth dates, are given in Stackpole and Meserve's "History of the Town
of Durham," vol. 2, page 37. It will be noticed that the last child (Mary)
given in the "History" does not appear in the Bible record.

Dover, N.H. Samuel Burnham Shackford.
