    1. Philip, Lord Wharton's Will of 1696.

    3. Hi everyone, Thanks to all who responded to my query about Philip, Lord Wharton, his Bibles & Prayer Books. I have discovered an article today on the following website:- http://gmb.orpheusweb.co.uk/lowrow/bible.html This is most interesting and tells you quite a lot about him, which I certainly didn't know before. I have only ever seen one of these Bibles before and it was in the small museum on Portland (Weymouth), some years ago.The lady in charge wasn't able to enlighten me on Lord Wharton, and said that the Bible had been presented to the museum at some time in the past. The following website, which Peter Appleton recommended, certainly makes most interesting reading, but doesn't seem to mention the actual Philip himself. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/bandl.danby/Index.html Regards to everyone. Cheers, Don.
