Wanted: Rains family Bible-Australia
« on: Friday 06 November 09 09:06 GMT (UK) »
My grandmother Florence Ethel Rains had  a family Bible which has gone missing since her daughter in law's death.
Florence apparently kept family information in the Bible. On her death in 1944, it passed to her husband Arthur Rains, living in Mildura Victoria at the time. At his death it passed to his son Sid. Both Sid and his wife are deceased with no children. If anyone sees it in their travels, please let me know.
Much of their  (Forence and Arthur's) married life was spent in South Australia.

The family Bible owned by Florence and Arthur Rains formerly of Mildura Victoria has disappeared.

If seen please advise. Anecdotally it held much family history!
