MY GRANDFATHER,

Ferra Marcel Young, had in his possession a family bible that belonged to his parents, Sarah DeArmon Rich and George Edwin Young.
It is a tattered, water damaged, literally falling apart at the seams bible with beautiful illustrations, fragile pages and family information written in my great grandmother's handwriting....
I am the lucky recipient of this precious family heirloom.
I have it wrapped in the aged cotton cloth that grandpa did, tightly bound keeping the bible "together".
You know me well if you know that family history gets me giddy and I'm a smidge obsessed getting to know my ancestors.
Having this piece of my family's past fills my heart - I am so proud to have it and absolutely cherish it....
