Yaz_Bible_Fraiser-Stam(m)

My father owns the bible of his great grandmother, Sarah Anna Fraiser Stam(m). The bible was given to her by her husband. I have transcribed the handwritten contents. Also included inside the bible are 2 photographs, one of her son Albert and another of her son David.

Sarah married Henry Stam(m), Jr. He was a school teacher and a newpapaper editor in Yazoo County. He served as a conscript in the Civil War.

Sarah's father was Robert Potter Fraiser, who presided over her wedding.

Please consider our family bible contents for this site. The transcript is included below.

Sincerely,
Anita Stamm Spears
