You can search family history information for free in the online Family Bible database at Bible Rescue. Family Bibles can also be purchased so Bible Rescue can acquire more Bibles to catalog in their database. Each rescued bible is sent to FamilySearch for scanning and inclusion on their website. Search the Catalog using the keyword Family Bibles.
“Bible Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit that has 3 primary missions:
- Rescue family Bibles
- Record the family history information inside each Bible
- Reunite each family Bible with living descendants, extended family, genealogy centers, and anyone who believes they can put the family Bible to good use.
Since our founding, we have rescued over 1000 family Bibles with thousands of entries referencing names, birthdates, weddings, relationships, marriages, passings, and burials.”
