Searles Marred to Lucinda Harpending tusday April 27th 1851 (this was corrected from 1852. I don't know if we'll ever know if it was an honest typo, or if someone was "fixing the books". most of this was written into the bible by one person at one time, instead of over the years-probably a duplicate bible and the real family bible is (I hope) in the possession of a Searles descendant.)
