David Sherwood Bible, 1802 - 1873, Delaware County, Ohio, Date
My Gr-Gr-Gr Grandfather was David Sherwood, born: October 27,1802 in Washington County, VA.; Died: January 12, 1873 in Delaware County, Ohio; Buried: Marlborough Primitive Church Cemetery.He & his wife Margaret (Bishop) Sherwood migrated from Washington County, VA in 1829.In the Probate Records for his estate a Bible is listed.Since his wife lived until 1876 I assume that the Bible remained in her possession until her death.I am interested in what became of that Bible & if it still exists, because I'd like to ask the current owner to copy the Birth, Death, and Marriage records contained therein and provide them to me.
In return I can supply the same information from the Bible of his Father Adaiah Sherwood of New York and Washington County, VA..I have an exact transcript, plus high quality photographs of the Birth, Death, & Marriage Records from Adaiah's Bible.In addition, I have photos of the cover pages from the Old & New Testament cover pages which identify the Bible's Printer from Philadelphia (1813).
If anyone has this Bible, or knows its whereabouts, please post a reply and let me know how to get in touch with you.
Bob Sherwood
