This is an American Bible, but the family originated in Scotland.
Condition
Extracted pages - or maybe it was intended only for framing. It is two pages taped together, with some additional notes on the reverse of one. There may be more surnames than those listed under "Surnames" below, but it is difficult to determine which were intended as middle names and which as surnames.
