Media Type: Manuscripts
Source: Rare Book Department
Notes:

Hand-drawn; hand-colored; hand-lettered; printed form. The main text in Roman script fills two columns on the front (recording births) and part of one column on the reverse (recording marriages). The areas between the entries are decorated with various drawings. Above the entry on the reverse are two hearts with an arrow. The entire document is framed by a decorative border. This family record was apparently removed from a bible. For the record of the front, see FLP 1028.
