Additional Comments:
Transcribed from a HOLY BIBLE  (no inscription,  Publishers name/date page is
missing)
All entries are typed as they appear 
All Brate entries were written by the same hand, and appear to have been
entered at the same time 
The Young entry is written in a different, more modern hand with a higher
quality pen and lighter ink, possibly by Hiram Brate, son of Isaac
- All bracketed text [ ] are editorial remarks

This Bible (circa 1820) has been handed down through my family, and remained in
the same house in Reidsville, town of Berne, Albany County, New York, since the
1850's.  The Isaac Brate listed above is my great-great-grandfather.
