Date of Accession20 February 2009
Bio History Note

The Bible is copywrighted, 1902 and so the Archivist is supposing that signatures were added after 1902 but before Sadie Stutsman was married to Wampler and while E. M. Crouch was President.  If research was done on the time that the students and faculty included in the signatures were at Manchester, a more accurate time-frame might be established.

Signatures include but are not limited to:

Sadie Stutsman (this was probably before her marriage to Wampler)

Lova Dickey

Pearl Coulson

Nettie E. Studebaker

Caroline McCobb

Charles A. Light

Cordelia Crouch (relation to President Crouch?)

David L. Stoner

Ross Myer

La. Virgie Long

Margaret Pfeiffer

Florence Studebaker

F. A. Wilkes

Ada Weybright

Myrtle Pfeiffer

Mae Dunbar

Ray Kitterman

Albert Kindy

E. M. Crouch (this would be E. M. Crouch, Professor 1895 and President of Manchester College 1901 - 1910)
