Whittle and Judah (Ferguson) Flanagan Bible

Date: [unknown] [unknown]
Location: Louisa, Virginia, United States
Surnames/tags: Flanagan Ferguson

There are multiple pages for this Bible record, some repetitive or with variations in the presentation. The pages were filmed in negative at the Library of Virginia in Richmond, which means they were probably microfilmed that way. The images can be viewed here, on the Library of Virginia's website.

• They are very worn, torn, and smudged, and there is a lot of bleed-through on the pages.
• They are being presented with the best possible transcription here.
• All handwritten items are presented in italics.
• Unless they are discernible by context, illegible items are presented with underlines, such as "17_3" and "__ecember"
• My notations are presented in [bold and brackets].
• Any missing letters or numbers that can be confidently interpreted are presented in bold.
