	Hi Nell, I think I'll give the records office a call.Thanks for your advice I can't wait to see what's underneath maybe some family skeletons,although it will probably turn out to have been someone elses bible. Thanks again Sandra

	If you've got strong people to help could you hold the page up to the window and see if any writing shows through? DON'T SPOIL THE BIBLE. doing this though.
