I have two ancestors named from Mark 5:41, a great,great grandmother born in 1851 named Talitha Jane, and on another branch of the family tree, my grandmother's great aunt, Talitha Cumi. In the story of Jesus healing Jairus' daughter (Mark 5: 21-43) he tells her, "talitha cumi" (KJV) which Mark tells us means "little girl arise." I don't know if the names were chosen for the "little girl" or the miracle. Either way, I think it is lovely.<BR/><BR/>Personally, I like Abigail. Of course she was a problem solver who took matters into her own hands without checking with God - something I'm prone to do. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the fun post.mid-life rookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07477633857058924514noreply@blogger.com
