There was a handwritten note in the bible signed by my Grandmother, Elsie Almira Aby, that indicated the Bible was a wedding present to Benjamin Stackhouse and his wife Catherine Farmer from his parents and the inside front cover does have an inscription that is no longer entirely readable. I can make out the name Benjamin Stackhouse and an additional signature of Stackhouse, but not the give name of the signer. The handwriting of the inscription is the same as the entry for Benajmin and Catherine's marriage. The same person also entered the birth information for Benajmin and Catherine. NOTE: Abbreviation Bd in the death section indicates, Birth Date. I hope this information is of use to others. Elsie M.
