Bardo Bible Records submitted and ©  by LouAnn Cameron <lspyres@gotricounty.com>
Aug. 03, 2001, for the Lycoming County Genealogy Project.

The following information was found in a family bible at a local antique shop in Washington, NC.  It's a very large Bible with only a small amount of information listed on the family pages.   The family name for the Bible is Bardo. The first few entries in my document are the only entries in the Bible. There are some very old photos also in the Bible. The Bible itself is old and in poor condition. It contains information in the front about the Protestant denominations of the era, giving their names, short histories and beliefs. There are many black & white pictures in the Bible along with many extra sections in addition to the normal scriptures.

This Bible is for sale at an  antique shop in Washington, NC.  If you are interested in purchasing this bible email me and I will give you the name and phone number of the store.  I have no other information regarding this bible or family other than what is listed on this page.
