British Family Bibles is a new venture. Its intention is to locate and sell via the WWW, family bibles, prayer books and other genealogical resources to the descendants of their original owners.
Such a venture exists in America. Clearly, it is a success there. There is also an internet mailing list and other internet resources dedicated to family Bibles. But for such a venture to succeed it must be coordinated and we believe that we can do this, for British Bibles at least, by gathering them under one domain - FamilyBibles.co.uk - and selling them there.
Clearly - it's not going to be simple to sell any individual bible. On the other hand, any bible that does sell should command a proportionately higher price than it would if simply sold as a bible. The Genealogical information in the bible is extremely valuable - but only to the appropriate person, if such a person even exists!
So we need stock, either for outright purchase, to hold ourselves or to sell by proxy.
