Unwanted Family Bible - Thorp/Parke
« on: Wednesday 02 December 20 09:50 GMT (UK) »
I posted this seven years ago, and I still have this beautiful family bible in my possession.  I would love to pass it on to the right family.

It looks lovely but is it possible for you to transcribe some of the info. to here with names/dates/places which should come up on a search but would otherwise go unnoticed?

Thank you very much for your replies, Rosinish, Rosie99 and ShaunJ.  I have checked the family trees on Ancestry and sure enough, the Holden tree is the one.  My use of Ancestry is through  Libraries West so I'm unable to contact them direct.  I'd appreciate it very much is someone could send them a message, I will gladly ship the Family Bible to them.  Thank you.
