Harrison-Franklin Family Bible
This Bible is in very poor condition with both the backs and several pages missing. The title page is missing; however, the New Testament title page has the date 1809, and the printer was Mathew Carey of Philadelphia. Following is a copy of the remaining record pages of the Bible. All Parenthesis are my own. Contributed by Mrs. Martha P. Reneau, Rte. 1, Galsgow, KY Published in Kentucky Ancestors, Vol. 5, No.1, July1969.
