I have an old gem of a family bible - HUGE thing but the binding has all disentegrated under its own weight i think. It goes back to early 1800s with entries about family back then all way through to about early 1900s. looks like one person filled in the lot. theres only a couple of pages with family details but they were really informative. After reading ppls posts here youve all made me think about getting it rebound -which would prob be extremely expensive? - and also updating it with all thresearch that iv done so that i can bring it up to date and future generations can add to it as it will be fit to write in?
What do you think? Should I update it - given that its been left dormant in an attic for the best part of the 20th century - my dad just likes to 'look' at it onbce a decade or so...should i get it rebound?
Your opinions would be welcome
