Subject: [ELLER] Jacob Eller Bible transcription
Date: Sun, 8 Jul 2001 18:23:16 -0700


I recently received some family history items from a relative. Included was
a very, very old and fragile Bible page (torn from the Bible) with Eller
family dates. I don't know for sure who was the original owner of the
Bible, but I believe it to be from Jacob Eller, Jr., husband of Elizabeth
Grimes. This Jacob was the son of Jacob Eller, Sr., and Margareth
Willjard/Williard, and the grandson of Henry Eller, Sr. and Elizabeth
Bigler. Here is the transcription, as well as I can read it (I will let
misspellings stand as written):
