I have a Bible which belonged to John Calvin Carmichael. John Calvin married Mary
Weaver. I believe she was the "Polly" in the 1850 census for Andrew Weaver as
recorded in Greene Co. IN. At least, she would be the appropriate age and all her
siblings ages in the 1850 census for Greene Co. IN go along with the dates/names that are
listed in the Bible. Of course, the names/dates were listed later. The Bible itself was
not published until 1869 and many of the events/births/marriages which are recorded were
much earlier than that.
There is one additional child listed in both the census and Bible for Andrew and
Susan(bible)or Susanna (census)Weaver and that is Sarrah (bible) or Sarah (census) born
July 23, 1850 than you have in your list.
My query is: From which Weaver family did Andrew J. and Susan/Susanna descend? I am a
great-great grandchild of Andrew Weaver and Malinda Weaver of Grayson County, Va.
I know some Weaver families here in Indiana. But at the present time they have no
knowledge of or interest in exploring genealogy. If I could make a connection to the
Weavers of Grayson and/ or Ashe County, I would be happy to make a copy of the Bible's
4 pages to place in a genealogy resource center for those two areas as well as Greene and
Monroe County in IN.
