Mr. Robert Paul Killian’s avid interest in biblical chronology has a history of over seventy years. The Killian family had visited the Natural History Museum and the La Brea Tar Pit in the Los Angles area before his seventh birthday in June of 1939. Later, when the Killian family moved from Los Angles to Grants Pass, Oregon, in early 1945, Bob continued to indulge his curiosity in the study of the biblical stories. He had enlisted in the US Navy Reserve during his last year at Grants Pass High School, graduating with 'the Class of 50.' He then volunteered for two years active duty in the US Navy in late summer of 1951 to serve in the 'Korean Conflict.' When that war ended in June of 1953, he was honorably discharged and chose to serve with the Grants Pass Naval Reserve Program for a total of eight years. That choice resulted in his being awarded a second honorable discharge from the US Naval Reserve in 1958. When he married Charlotte B. Cobbs, of Provolt, Oregon, in 1953, he found that one of their most common interests in their young lives was the study of biblical history and biblical chronology in particular. Charlotte, nicknamed 'Chucky,' had attended one semester at Loyola Bible College in the Los Angles area the year before they married. She had brought home a 'butcher-paper-scroll' of the biblical timeline of Archbishop James Ussher. The scroll is still very readable to this day. It is available to anyone visiting his home, now in Monaco. Bob and Chucky had four children born within the six years between 1954 and 1959. The firstborn, Robert Clair; the second, LaDessa Ellen; the third, Trenna Fay; and Richard Clay, fourth and the last. Chucky often said that 'it was like shelling peas.' Bob and Chucky amicably divorced in 1962. Bob had begun a forty-two-year career in hotel casino operations at Lake Tahoe in 1960. Forty-two years later, in 2002, after a fulfilling career in hotel casino operations management worldwide, Bob retired in Monte Carlo, Monaco. He had married again in 1981 'On-the Rock' of Monaco with a lovely retired lady, Josette Galliano, who had been 'a functionaire' of the Monegasque Telephone Office for twenty-five years. They are living now in a quiet residential area of Monaco. In early 2004, Bob’s interest in biblical chronology was renewed when he found an online question by John Morris, president of ICR, Institute for Creation Research. The question, 'Can the Ussher Chronology be Trusted?' His answer is: This present book: Chronology of the Hebrew Bible Re-viewed. It is fruit of Bob’s seventy-year biblical study.
