ancestry of Elizabeth Stephens Cabbage

I have received information that Rev. John Cabbage (c. 1810, TN - c. 1884, Lauderdale Co., Alabama), son of Alexander Cabbage and Elizabeth Stephens, had a family Bible which recorded the births of the children of Elizabeth's parents Dudley and Nancy Stephens along with some information concerning Dudley's parents. This information was purportedly contained in a letter dated 16 July 1907 and written by one Ann Eliza George of 111 N. Third St., Richmond, VA, a granddaughter of Frances Dudley, who was the daughter of William Dudley and Ann Pinchback and granddaughter of Robert Dudley and Mary Ann Fleet of King and Queen Co., VA.
Further information in this letter is that Dudley Stephens' mother was Ann aka Nancy Dudley, daughter of Robert Dudley and Mary Ann Fleet, was born 1741 and married to John Stephens in 1759.
Since Rev. John Cabbage is referred to as having been from Alabama, which is where he lived when he died, the Bible probably descended in the family of his daughter, Elizabeth, and her husband James W. Phillips, who had also moved to Alabama from Warrick Co., IN.
I would like any information concerning the present whereabouts of this Bible of Dudley and Nancy Stephens or the letter of Ann Eliza George. The letter is addressed to "Mr. Fleet" and also mentions a cousin of Ann Eliza named George Fleet Dudley.
