The Changes of the Bible Covered Bridge

Wooden bridge in 1923, just before a new covered

bridge was erected. Roger, the family dog was

sitting on the bridge. At that time, my mother

was 12 years old.

My mother asked Greene County Hertiage Trust

to preserve the old worn out covered bridge. The

project was accepted to preserve and restore

it. Hats off to my mother for hard work...

The new Bible Covered Bridge along the Little Chucky

Creek in Midway, Tennessee (Warrensburg Community),

about 15 miles from Greeneville was completed

early in 1972. My mother proudly stood behind it.

Also, it was selected, "National Registry of the

Historic Sites" and one of the 5 surviving covered

bridges in Tennessee.

The covered bridge was restored again with the

Greene County Hertiage Trust in 2004 and driving the

covered bridge is closed. Use a concrete bridge to pass

the Bible Covered Bridge on Denver Bible Road.

There is a parking lot for pictures taking and

taking a deep breath to mess around...

Camilla in my mother's spirits proudly is standing

at the Bible Covered Bridge along the Little Chucky Creek...

The Denver Bible Family used to live the house on

the Bible descendant's farm. Denver was my mother's

only brother. On the right side, the log house( 2 stories)

was where my mother was born. Now it was down.

I had fond memories there when I was young...

Edwin Allison Bible, the 6th Bible descendant had

his bright idea about erecting a covered bridge.

So he did with his people's help. He was Greene

County magistrate twice, and county surveyor.

Had some county affairs, too. Edwin Allison

was my grandfather (my mother's father).

Here is a portion of the Bible (Biebel) history from their beginning in

this country.

They were natives of the Rhine Valley in Germany (Alsace, the

small village of Goersdorf). They were driven out due to the

fact that they were being persecuted because of religious beliefs.

The Bible brothers(Phillip and Christian Bible) were moved to

Tennessee (Greene County) from Rockingham County, Va.

Christian Bible (our 4th descendant) & the family migrated to

the Tennessee frontier and settled on the Little Chucky

(Nolichunkey) River in Greene County, Tennessee.

Christian acquired and developed many acres of land-much

of which is still owned & occupied by his descendants.

Christian had 12 children.

Camilla is the 8th descendant in the Bible (Biebel) family.

Amanda's and Olivia's are the 9th...

Thanks to Edwin, our descendant to keep the Bible

Covered Bible "alive" and historic part.

Gloria Hollen, Bill, & Camilla go up to the

top of Mt. Mitchell through a strenous

2 miles trail

(Highest Point in NC-6,684)

Beautiful nature and strenous trail

Bill celebrates in the air when we arrive

the top; even though, he falls several

times on the trail due to poor balance

and dizziness. He is very stubborn

Bill is resting after his struggle while

Gloria & Camilla mess around

With our disappointment, we don't return other

strenous 2 miles trail down due to Bill's situation,

but with our wisdom & safety, we go to a different

way with him. It makes him happy.

Bill enjoys walking on the road alone!
