BENJAMIN FRANKLIN SUTTON BIBLE

Courtesy of William E. (Mickey) Elmore

Bible records of Benjamin Franklin Sutton of Bucklesberry, Lenoir County, NC 
and his four wives, Henrietta Rouse, Laura Rouse, Elsie Ann Herring, and Mary 
Frances Dixon. Copied 1975 from the Bible owned by Clifton R. Sutton, Sr., the son 
of Benjamin F. Sutton and his fourth wife Mary Frances (Fannie) Dixon Sutton, 
who lived in Benjamin's house in Bucklesberry. If there was a publisher and 
place and date shown (and there probably was), I failed to copy it. Notes in 
brackets are from an interview with Clifton Sutton, or from an examination of 
gravestones in the cemetery adjacent to the house.
