Bible in the Wall

During a remodeling project, an old Bible was found in the wall of the old Ed Brewer home on North Elizabeth Street in Stronghurst, Illinois. (2nd house on west side of street)

Virginia Ross has sent the genealogical records found in the center of the volume. No date or title page was found.

The Bible is now at the Henderson County Historical Museum, Raritan, Illinois.
