    No worries about resurrecting a post. I think this one will live and breathe for a while. I'm still waiting to hear back from the heir. I really want to get a picture of the plaque placed at the site of his burial. I think for everyone here that had a hand on getting it back to the rightful owners.. it would be a sense of closure for us all!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    I use to get on eBay and search "family bible". Then try to locate some of the descendants of names listed in the bibles. I got in touch with 3 or 4 different families. Not sure if they bought the bible or not. But I felt good about my efforts. I've been watching eBay for one of my own family bibles that was the source for some genealogy records I found online. I had contacted the son of the woman who had the bible (she's dead now) and he thought he might still have the bible but he's a junk dealer and might have sold it or something.
