Births from his Family Bible
I have 2 pages of copies from the birth section of the family bible. I do not know who owns the original bible or whether information was completed in the marriages or deaths section. Page two is displayed here, with a link to page 1 at the bottom. The columns are separated, enlarged and transcribed below. Corrections are welcome!

Questions & Comments
By studying the formation of the letters, I believe that all the entries were written by the same person. Based on that belief, it would seem that William would have to be the one who made the entries, since it is generally believed that there were 2 wives who were mothers of his children. Any commentary on this would be appreciated.
Does anyone know who these people are?
Charetties Last Child Was Born Sept the 5 1836.
Grean was born
Netty war born april the 12 – 1831
Sharlot was born Jany the 19th 1834
