The Bible is in the possession of Brenda Black Watson. I am the third great-granddaughter of Jacob Moore and Amanda
Rice. I inherited several Family Bibles from my Uncle George Black in Arcola, IL in 1977. This transcript is taken
from eight pages out of the original Bible along with 2 handwritten Notes. I have faithfully maintained the original
spelling.
Jacob Moore (1799-1860) was born in Shelbyville, Shelby County, Kentucky and is buried in Arcola, Douglas County,
Illinois. He married Amanda Rice (1806-1863) in 1829 who was born in Shelby County, Kentucky. They moved from KY
to Park County, IN to Douglas County, IL and had 11 children.
