Thomas & Sarah (Walmsley?) Phipps family Bible - 1800s Montgomery Co, PA
No relation. I just enjoy browsing through family Bibles up for auction on eBay and trying to connect any genealogical info to those that might find it of interest or worth pursuing. I am not the seller, nor do I intend to purchase. Unfortunately, links to eBay items only stay active for a couple months. Here is what I found:
Item number: 300219635374
Seller: urlybird_1
Based on info posted by the seller:
This Bible is "The Property of Thomas and Sarah Phipps Bought ...1805" )These four pages have been filled with older writing recording the births and deaths of the various Phipps / Rowlett family members starting in 1733 to the 1890s (in a different hand).
According to a photo posted by the seller:
13 Mar 1825 - "Property of Drusilla P. Rowlett.Willed to her by her Mother Sarah Phipps"
Based on a little Internet research:
Drusilla Phipps married John Rowlett 11 Nov 1824 in Montgomery Co, PA.
