The Bible is owned by a member of the Lanark County Genealogical
Society. The transcription is taken from three photocopied pagess of
entries. The pages are ornately engraved "Family Record" pages,
evidently from a Bible, but there is no indication as to the Bible's
age, etc.
The photocopied pages are accompanied by a computer-generated
descendant report which contains more complete information about this
family. Additional information from this report has been added to the
Bible entries and [put in brackets].
