Condition

a lovely bible, with two brass clasps to hold it closed. It is in good condition but the front cover has broken away.

Names

Both these names are written inside the front cover.

Annie Farrants March 20th 1879
Ellen Mary Hewson

There is no information in the pages for family history, but Annie Farrants is known to have married Thomas Vincent Hewson [2] on 8th November 1884 at St Mary's Church Bury St. Edmunds and Ellen Mary is their daughter. Nothing is known about Ellen Mary (aka Nellie), but as the family bible was never filled in, it must be assumed that she did nor marry.

The Hewson bible is a complement to this bible.
