This Bible was handed down to their daughter,
Salina, and then to her son, Sam. My Grandpa (Theodore Hoxit) & Sam were cousins.
Grandpa went to visit Sam in the hospital two weeks before Sam's death. His daughter made a
copy for Grandpa. Sam's children and step children are listed on page 2. Don't know where
Ninive was? Near Balsam Grove in Gloucester Township, Transylvania County - centered about
half way up Tanasee Gap Road.

Salina Jane
Owens was 6 months old when the Earthquake at Charleston
S.C. took place 1884.
The winter of 1883 was the coldest and deepest
snow.
On June 17th 1906 the largest Hail Storm ever known. Hail one foot deep.
Rich mineral vein found on the cold creek
farm by W.B.Owens and Capt M.R. Gleason 1907
Father J.B. Woods and M.W. Wood
murdered on February 19th 1900..
(Family Tradition notes - the mine
turned out to be of little value. The Woods murder took place in Tennessee. John
was apparently caught in the cross fire and hit in the knee and died from the infection about
a week later.)
