I saw a message on this site from a lady who was asking whether anybody was researching the May family from Devon. She had seen a family bible for sale on E.Bay, relating to that family. I contacted the seller for a bit more info and then put in a bid and have nearly bitten my fingers off, waiting for seven days to pass. The bidding ended this morning and I GOT IT!!!!! My Dad's grandfather was a Charles May from Devon, so I am now eagerly awaiting receipt of the bible to check it out. Miracles do happen and I am so pleased that the lady took time to add a message in the hope that it would be picked up.
