Hi: I'm pasting a message from Hinds section of GenForum.com below. I rushed to e-bay but I was too late. I hope one of you Hinds researchers bought it. Since it was a pocket bible it most likely had no family info but it still would be a great find. Regards Nan 71532.734@compuserve.com ================================= Henry H.
