Transcription of Shields Family Bible (This bible seems to have belonged to William W. and Sarah Ann Livingston Shields whose family information is prevalent herein. We think Dock Lucratus Shields was the keeper of the bible after that. He has some of his family information listed. After Dock passed away, Nealy Spencer Shields acquired the bible. After he died his son Buford Spencer Shields had it. Upon his death his son, Carl, has kept the bible in safe keeping. He has had it in his possession for the past 23 years. The publication date on the bible is 1857).
