This Victorian Bible contains much interesting Genealogical information on the "Manning" and "Lane" Families, and others. Entries begin with extracts from the Diary of Joseph Paice, Member of Lyme Regis 1700 which gives details of the "Paice" family from 1533, proceeding to the Gibson, Oke Manning and Lane Families. Also included is a newspaper cutting on William Manning who was one of the earliest British Aircraft Designers and an envelope with information on the pedigree of the "Lane Family". The last entry is for Miss Alice M. Manning, who died in 1934. Antique Bookplate with the armorial bearing of the Manning Family is on the Endpaper. ( I have another Bible that descended to Miss Alice M. Manning and would be happy to give a discount on these Bibles to help keep them together as there is much Genealogical information in them). If you would like more information, please ask. Heavy Bible, weighs 3.6 Kilos.…
