The Malachi & Fanny
Waterfield Bible
(1787 - 1883)
This Bible suffered extensive water damage at some point in time. Of the 5 pages some could be read fairly easily, and some could not. I hope the Bible transcriptions below each page will be valuable to Waterfield researchers. Anyone knowing more about this family please e-mail me.
