1. Family Bible of Rosa FENNELL and Wheeler B. CORBIN (page images courtesy of William Wheeler CORBIN, Jr.): Marriage, Births, Deaths.

Note that the year field on the bible's marriage page is pre-printed as "19__" and that the 19 has been crossed out and replaced with "18." Apparently, the bible was back-filled sometime after 1900 (i.e., the bible is not contemporary for any event prior to 1900, or possibly even later). There are significant differences between the data in the bible and that in the 1900 census. In genealogy, you favor the more contemporary record, which in this case would be the census; on the other hand, you would expect the bible to be the more accurate of the two.
