Grandma Ocie Hallock Sheets' Bible, with Aunt Mildred's hand in the picture. Aunt Mildred has Grandma's Bible. She won't let it out of her hands. She says it's too fragile.
Benita, thankfully your Aunt is letting you take photos of the Bible. Maybe after she sees how interested you are she'll pass the Bible on to you to protect and treasure!
Regina, Thank you. I did get pictures of the genealogy information. I plan on publishing it...another project to do when I have more time! Thanks, Benita
It is indeed a precious treasure. My Mom has her Mom's Bible and it's one of the few items that has Grandma's actual handwriting in it - where they used to record all of the birthdays, deaths, marriages, etc.
