Jacobs Bible

Brown's Self-Interpreting Family Bible, Philadelphia
and New York, William T. Amies, 1880.

Bible is very good shape, however needing a binding
repair. The inscriptions in the family history section
are in several different handwritings. Someone carelessly
removed photos from the back section.

Accompanying church flyers place this family near
Hazleton, PA.

Transcribed by and in the possession of Tracy St. Claire,
