Family Heirloom

Recommended Posts

So this past weekend while I was back east I was able to return with my grandmothers family bible I had not seen in probably 40 years. It is a tabletop leather bound one and most all the gold leaf is worn off the pages. It probably weighs close to ten pounds.

I also found some old letters and newspaper clippings inside along with the citizenship paper from a distant relative. As in old family bibles from the time there are pages dedicated to births, deaths and weddings. Enjoy.

That's awesome! My mom brought me down my grandmother's bible from when she was younger. Its not that big or old, but I keep it locked in the gun safe for my daughter to have one day.
