Mark Jennings Bible
Hi:
I have the family bible of Mark Jennings, born 11/1/1848, died 9/21/1902. Mark was the son of Robert M (d. 1863) and Eleanor (d.4/18/04).
Mark married Sophronia Phillips in Elkhart City, Illinois, and they had five children who lived to adulthood:
Grace Eleanor (Peabody)
Charles Fred
Robert (my ancestor)
Edna Amelia (Barron)
Carlotta (who never married)
I am not interested in genealogy at this time and am trying to get rid of things that are taking up space. The bible, unfortunately, qualifies.
The bible is almost a fine work of art, with a leather embossed cover, marred only by the cat scratches made when I was too young to know that cats like to use real materials to sharpen their claws. (Also, the cover--back and front--are separating.)
If you know of any one who would like this bible, please let me know, and we'll make arrangements.
Thank you.
