These Bible records have been taken from copies, notes, and in some cases, the Bibles themselves, on file at the Washington County Historical Society. Washington County was often a stopping point for families heading west to Ohio, Illinois and beyond. Bible records are invaluable for research in the times prior to civil registration, offering a rich source of birth, marriage, and death information. A full-name index adds to the value of this work.
