Thompson, in the early 1900s, but the original work was started in 1890. Dr. Frank Charles Thompson was born in 1858, in Elmira, New York, and was ordained in 1879. His wife was Laura Boughton Thompson. He became dissatisfied with the reference Bibles that were then available to preachers. The first version of Thompson's study Bible was published in 1908 by the Methodists Book Concern of Dobbs Ferry, New York. Five years later, in 1913, Dr. Thompson was joined by B.B. Kirkbride, of Indianapolis, Indiana. The two men formed the Kirkbride Bible Company, in order to further improve and distribute Thompson's work. The original Thompson Chain-Reference Bible, as well as several subsequent versions, were based on the King James Bible. As of 2006, there have been more than 4,000,000 Thompson Chain-Reference Bibles sold.
