      PHILLIPS' FAMILY BIBLE TRANSCRIPTS:
      ALMOND PHILLIPS' BIBLE
      "Almond Phillips was the third son of John and Emeline. Almond's son Homer, a veteran of the Spanish-American War, applied for a government pension. On July 19, 1938 he took his parents' family Bible to a notary public in Hendricks County, Indiana. The notary, William F. Evans, examined the Bible and certified that it hadn't been erased or altered. Evans certified that it was "the family Bible of John Almond Phillips and Viola Whitsett Phillips." On June 20, 1938 Homer sent the Veterans Administration a photostatic copy of "the old family Bible" with a cover letter stressing that the Bible showed he "was born in 1878 instead of of 1879." Unfortunately, a copy of this record, provided by the VA in 1996, is not wholly legible. The vital dates for Almond and wife Viola are the only readable dates. The names Lauretta Herrod, Flora Phillips and Porter Phillips are also legible.
      Note: See my [John Phillips'] publication "Riley Phillips Family Bible" for lengthy data on the family of Almond's brother Riley.
      John Almond Phillips born Jan. 1, 1847, died May 10, 1926
      Viola Whitsett Phillips born Sept. 22d, 1847; died Aug. 16 or 17, 1881"
