Found: Mellor Family Bible
Today in Washington, Mason Co., KY (located in northern KY a short distance from the Ohio river) I saw a bible for sale in an antique store.Because it is chock full of genealogical information I bought it in order to preserve it.
I will be abstracting all the info from it in an orderly fashion later but wanted to put a preliminary notice out.
The bible cover has the names inscribed on it of:
Albert & Mary Mellor
The bible has all sorts of photos and wedding announcements interleaved in the pages.There is a letter dated 1880 that is a listing of births, etc, going back to the 1830's in New York state and West Virginia.Some of the later wedding announcements cite residences in Walnut Hill which is part of Cincinnati, OH.This family appeared to be quite well-to-do in Cincinnati.
I will post more later.If someone is interested in this bible please contact me via this board.
