OLD LEATHER BIBLE, THOMSON FAMILY GENEALOGY Item # 1404216809
Books:Antiquarian, Rare:Reference
Everything Else:Genealogy:Births, Marriages, Deaths
Welcome! The bidding is on a large, leather bound, 19th Century Bible, which contains family records for
The Thomson family. The handwritten genealogy records start with the Marriage Certificate for Thomas
Thomson of Cheltenham, Montgomery and Mary Eyre of Newtown, Bucks Co., Pennsylvania. They were
married February 24th, 1874. The following records appear to be of their children and the rest of their
families. It also looks as if someone did some research into the family in 1900, and there are some additional notes inside. The records are quite thorough, and in several cases give the cause
of death. Title page of the Bible reads: The Holy bible containing the Old and New Testaments, together with the Apocrypha, Concordance, and Psalms of david in Metre, Translated out of the
Original Tonuges: and with all Former Translations Diligently Compared and Revised. Also, A full and copiously illustrated Bible
Dictionary - History of the Books of the Bible, illustrated. An account of the different versions of the bible. A History of the Jewish Sects with various valuable tabular matter not to be
found in other editions. Published by Miller's Bible and Publishing House, Philadelphia. Undated, circa 1870. Bible measures 9.5" x 12" x 3.75" thick. It does need some help. Cover are
detached, outter spine is also detached, though it is still kept inside the pages. Pages are held together in four different sections. It needs to be rebound. The family records are unique
though, and quite interesting.
