Some of these pages are almost illegible, and two of Isaac Gore's children, Randolph and Horace, have copied some of the text and mad comments in practicing their penmanship. My best effort at reading and transcribing the pages follows the images.

A child s scribbling: Mary (probably Marg for Margaret, the child's mother) Walls plus Ms and something indecipherable
.

At the bottom, someone has subtracted 1815 from 1951 to get 136 years. Why?

(Both columns have writing by Ewing Randolph, Isaac's next-to-youngest child. I can read "Ran" twice, "his handwriting," a date, and perhaps "Isaac." A lot of the entries on this page appear to be in Ran's writing.)
Benjamin F Gore was bornd January the 5 1847

Page 680
Left Column
Thomas Gore died March 10th 1850
Elizabeth Gore died September 20th 1829
Jonathan Gore died November 14th 1843 (I believed that this was
Isaac's son Jonathan because there are no further records of him,
but it appears that Isaac's brother Jonathan died at this time.)
Jane McClure died January 22nd 1846
Horace's writing - "The bible is called a testament. This is my bible. I was born on March. I am nine old this March 1884." (The date and age would have been correct for Horace.)
Right Column

Isaac Darnell Gore born January 8th 1818 1819 1819
(More child's scribbling)
New Page: APOCRYPHA
Top of page
Mary Gore now Stephen was born December 12th 1813 - so says
Susannah our oldest sister (This entry would have been made after
1829 when the mother died, and Margaret, the oldest, was also
dead then. It may have been made after Thomas died in 1850.)
More Pages
Child's writing probably: Mary Gore She married Joe Alexander. She is not wel1 She is so
sick she has not ben cence (since) the ??? year ???. (This was
Isaac's daughter Mary not his sister. Mary and Joseph married in
February 1876.)
Mary Gore
Franklin Thomason
(Seemingly part of address)
Dallas Tex
On the last page, I can decipher nothing on the first line; on the second "(dal marked out?)Dallas Texas 1884 dear?"; on the third and fourth "brother sister ??? i will u ???."
This shows that Eliza Jane Gore and husband George Thomason were in Texas by 1884. Franklin Thomason was their son.
