Brodhead Bible
The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments,
Oxford, Printed at the Clarendon Press, by Bensley,
Cooke and Collingwood, 1812 (per NT Title page).
This Bible is in poor shape. The back cover is missing,
as well as anything after the last page of Revelation.
The front cover was crudely taped on, and some signatures
are loose.
The handwriting here leaves a lot to be desired. I studied
it for about an hour before deciding the last name was
Brodhead. My other guesses weren't even names, or at least
common ones. If anyone has a better guess, let me know.
There is a blank "counter check" from the Farmers
State
Bank of Callaway, Nebraska, printed 192__, included.
The genealogy is on the reverse of the main title page.
