1881 BELL McELROY FAMILY BIBLE PAGES ALSO ROSE REGAN GANDEE FAMILIES
Six (6) old printed pages (copyrighted 1881) that have been DETACHED from what must have been a 19th century family bible. The pages measure about 9.5 x 12" and are colorful chromolithographs printed to resemble old "illuminated manuscript" pages.
The pages have a horizontal fold line. They have a few stains, smears & spots. There are a few chips & tears around the edges. All the pages have begun to split about one inch in on each side along the old fold line (see scan below). As stated above, these pages are DETACHED from an old Family Bible and they are also now separated from each other at the spine.
The pages are colorfully printed and filled in with manuscript entries in old dark-brown ink. The entries are a chronicle of family history. Most of the writing is quite clear & legible.
The first two pages record the 13 August 1884 MARRIAGE of AUGUSTUS MILES BELL and KATE ROSE McELROY, both of RACINE, OHIO.
The third page lists other MARRIAGES, the fourth page lists BIRTHS, the fifth page lists DEATHS, and the sixth & last page lists MEMORANDA.
Augustus & Kate's parents earlier marriages (1828 & 1857) are also recorded in the pages as well as the marriages of their children.
The page listing BIRTH records Augustus & Kate's birth in the 1850s, with older dates back to 1802 for their parents & as late as the 1940s for their children. Most of the same people have their DEATH dates recorded on the next page and on the last page there are two Baptisms recorded for children.
ALSO, there are two BLACK ENAMELED PAPERS included with the family bible pages. One measures about 3.5 x 6" and further records DEATH dates "IN LOVING REMEMBRANCE OF" some of the BELL family members listed in the Family Bible Pages. Another black paper which measures about 2 x 8.5" has a memorial verse.
These important & attractive pages of family history would provide interesting record for a genealogist or a genealogy research Institution.
