Hello,
I found a large, very old, tattered bible for the Bolen/Bolden family of Iowa & Nebraska. It is in very poor condition with one cover missing, some pages torn and missing. It would be a treasure trove for someone who would appreciate it. If you can prove a connection, I will mail the Bible to you for the cost of postage.

3 children listed as died in infancy or stillborn
Mary Spicer d. 2/21/1846, departed this life in her 78th year of her age (hard to read and dates don't match up.)
Elizabeth Bolen d. 4/17/1876
There are two letters written by a woman. One is to her brother and sister, the other to her children. The letters were written from Bertrand, Nebraska.
There is a letter, postmarked 10/9/1902 from George M. Bolen, County Treasurer Gosper County, Elwood, Nebraska written to his parents, T. J. Bolen, Clarinda, Iowa.
Some of the handwriting is hard to read, so my interpretation may be off. I am not a Bolen/Bolden family member or researcher, and do not visit this site. Please contact me directly.
