This was in "Somebody's Links" Vol 5, #12 o Just found this site by accident while checking out some genealogy links. It contains many listings of "lost and found" Bibles. Most are in the United States, but not all. Listings are by "Bibles Found," "Bibles Lost," and "Bibles to Share." Wonderful treasures to be seen by someone who is searching. <A HREF="http://www.usgennet.org/usa/topic/ancestors/b-lost.html">http://www.usgennet.org/usa/topic/ancestors/b-lost.html</A> (change b-lost to b-found) Tom & Maureen Beecroft tmbee@xcelco.on.ca ================================================= I thought this might help someone.
