--0-719885386-935208150=:3417 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline I sent this email earlier. It is how I understand the discription for this list. To see for yourself, go to Rootsweb.com, then down to roots lists, then to misc lists, and down to Family Bibles. I believe this list is to post the information from Bibles we have so others can see if it is who they are looking for. Then we can go to the archives and see which ones have been listed. I was sent this message today when I asked how to get to the archives. "Click on http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl Add to your Favorites. Then type in Family_Bibles . Be sure to use the right case. " This is the way I understand the directions. Hope this will help someone.

I am looking for Bibles at yard sales, auctions, used book sales, anywhere someone may have one they don't want. Please post the information you have in your Bible(s). When you need a Bible, check the archives to see if someone has listed that information. Quite frankly, if I were to find a Bible today, I don't remember any of the names that have been listed and I won't take the time to try to find out if the one I have is on this list. I would post the information and then let the readers see if it was something they wanted. If you are looking for a Bible list it on the surname, state or county list. BTW you may have a Family Bible that you don't want to get rid of but the information in it might help someone else. Would you please list the names, dates, locations, etc. from them? Please post only what is in the Bible and contact the person direct to get more information about it. One question for the list. HOW do you find the archives for the Family Bible List?? Would someone please post that URL? Linda __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Bid and sell for free at http://auctions.yahoo.com --0-719885386-935208150=:3417--
