| Holy Bible in German; Rordhaufen, Drud und Berlag von T. G. Müller, 1856. The Bible has no Family Register, but family information is recorded on the blank pages inside the front & back covers. The German language entries were translated by Ellen Biesdorf of Ithaca, NY. The German entries are hard to decipher, so only the translation is transcribed for those entries.
