Slade-Harrison Family Bible

of Jones & Pike Counties, Georgia

 This is the bible of Samuel Slade and Chloe Harrison of Jones and later Pike County, Georgia.  Samuel is a grandson of Samuel Slade of Southampton Co, Virginia and twin brother to Simon Slade.  This bible was apparently handed down through the family of their son Samuel G. Slade to their son John Edward Slade's family.  1n 1932 the bible was in possession of Mamie Slade Mitchell of Griffin, Georgia.  Only these two pages survive and were found inserted in the Slade-Lifsey Bible of their grandson John Edward Slade.  John Thomas Slade of McDonough, Georgia, currently has these pages [2006].  He is the  grandson of John Edward Slade and great-great-grandson of Samuel and Chloe Harrison Slade of Jones County, Georgia.
