BIBLE: SOURCE: “The Greene County Pioneer” A publication of the Greene County Genealogical Society Greene County, Tennessee November 1994 , Volume 10, Number 2; page 113-114..
Mr. W. David Beal of 144 Forest Road, Moorestown, New Jersey 08057 writes:

"While doing research on the Matlock family of Burlington County New Jersey, I had an opportunity to examine the papers of John Wesley Haines, a sell-known local genealogist, in the Burlington County, New Jersey Library. I found a 'Matlack/Matlock' file which included the attached Bible record which I thought might be of interest to Tennessee families because of the Sevier connection.”

"Mr. Haines had himself received his copy of the Bible records second hand, as his note indicates." An Old Matlock Bible

The following record was copied by Edgar Lee Matlock of Van Buren, Arkansas from an old Bible bearing the publisher's date of [hard to read, but possibly 1790]. The spelling and the lines drawn across the pages are exactly as in the Bible, with the exception of the statements contained in parenthesis. This Bible was originally the property of William Matlock, born in Henry Co., Virginia December 3, 1762, or of his wife Catherine (Sevier) Matlock, who was the sister of the Tennessee Soldier and Statesman, General John Sevier. The Bible is now in the possession of Rufus Matlock of Van Buren, Arkansas.

This copy of the record was sent by Edgar Lee Matlock to Chalkey Matlock of Moorestown, NJ, who received it on August 21, 1935.
