"Jeremiah Frame of Jackson Township, Preble County, Ohio, was a Revolutionary Soldier who came from Augusta County, Virginia; the son of William and Susannah Frame. He was in Kentucky as early as 1782. He moved to Ohio in 1815 and is buried on the land which he owned.
The following Bible Records, which were donated by Mrs. John F. Feighny, a descendant of Jeremiah Frame, were obtained by her from Mrs. Wade Whitley of Paris, Kentucky. Mrs. Whitley originally secured them, as she states in the notarized statement, from Miss Faith Stewart, whose father, Thomas Stewart, owned the Bible. Thomas Stewart was the son of Rachel Frame (Silas, Jeremiah) and Joel S. Stewart (Steward). (See pp. 246-247, A Biographical History of Preble County, Ohio; published by the Lewis Publishing Company, Chicago, Illinois, 1900).
This Bible record was copied by Miss Faith Stewart from the Bible of Jeremiah Frame, owned by his great-grandson, her father Thomas J. Stewart of West Alexandria, Ohio, who also owns the original deed to the farm signed in 1816 by President James Madison. At the time she copied this record Miss Faith Stewart was a teacher at Lewisburg, Tennessee. The Jeremiah Frame farm of 160 acres in Jackson Township, Preble County, Ohio, is owned by Mrs. Leland Campbell, Campbellstown, a descendant who directed us to the Bible.
