My great grandfather was Esbon Sloan, born in Rowan Co. Jan 27, 1828. About 30 years ago my grandmother, Rosa Bell Coldiron Sloan gave me Esbon's bible. I became interested in genealogy after I retired, a year ago. The bible contains birth and marriage records, two letters from Esbon's brother-in-law written in 1885 and 1886 and a Sloan Family Tree. The items were copied exactly as written.

Also included is Eliza J. Enix Sloan's Obituary. My grandfather lived in Carter Co. I think. The family tree was on a piece of paper, loose in the bible. The names listed under 'Births' and 'Marriages' were written on the pages of the bible. There are 7 tin type photos that I have no idea who the people are. There are 2 receipts dated 1938, for material for Thomas Harrison Sloan's casket and burial clothes. Esbon died in 1899. Thomas H. Sloan was William B. Sloan's son and died in Jan. 1938. The counties Esbon and his children lived in were Carter and Rowan.

******************
Paul say:"Here is a story from 'Pioneer History of Meigs County'. John Sloan was hunting deer one day when his dogs treed a panther. He shot and wounded it, when it came at him; the dogs caught hold, and Sloan declares that he "shot the animal nine times before he killed it"
