THANKS MIKE FOR SUGGESTING THE NABB CENTER. I DONATED MY CRUMBLING FAMILY BIBLE (NEE CECIL) TO NABB SEVERAL YEARS AGO. IT ONLY HAD A FEW NAMES, BIRTHDATES AND MARRIAGE DATES LISTED, BUT IT GAVE ME SOME VERY VALUABLE INFO ABOUT MY FATHER'S FAMILY. I HAD THE COVER AND THE PAGES WITH ENTRIES WRITTEN ON THEM COPIED AND THE COPIES ARE VERY CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL. OTHERS SHOULD CONSIDER THE NABB CENTER WHEN WANTING TO PRESERVE THEIR ANCESTRAL FAMILY PERIODICALS AND DOCUMENTS WHERE THEY ARE SAFELY AND PROFESSIONALLY PRESERVED FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.
