| Bio notes | Established in 1816, the American Bible Society was a mostly non-denominational Christian organization that translated and distributed Bibles to groups that lacked easy access to them, such as small towns, soldiers, and foreign peoples. Elias Boudinot and John Jay were among its early presidents. In 1818, the Society translated the three Epistles of John into the Delaware Indian language. |
