I saw your post. There may be others "further up the ladder" in line for a family bible, but my father is still living (83), in good health and with a sharp mind. He (George Porter Graham) is the grandson of Sam and Martha Graham. The children (Dad's uncles) are John (b. 1885), Jesse M. (b. Dec 1884), William Thomas (b. Aug 1887), Frank (b. Dec 1889 ), Meridith (b. 23 Nov 1891, Lee (b. 18 Apr 1895), and my grandfather, Rueben Lucius (b. 4 Dec 1897). Grandpa (Sam) lived with Rueben's family the last few years of his life. Dad was a young teen, and slept with Grandpa to care for him during the night. Dad was literally Grandpa's nurse, feeding, bathing, and even changing his catheter as needed near the end of his life. We would like to have a copy of the family pages. Does your relative know which person gave him the bible? I appreciate your help with this. Thank you. Barbara
