Ancestry Message Boards: "McKinney Bible:" May 10, 1999, Halfway, Polk Co., MO, Judy McKinney, wife of Lyndel McKinney, posted the family genealogy of the McKinney Bible passed down to them. Inside the front cover in pencil, "I received this book the 20 of Dec. 1894, and it was 130 years old at that time, Martha A. McKinney. This Book belonged to my grandma and then my ma, and now to me, this July the 1st, 1899. MAM"

Judy continues: "The bible is obviously very old, --large, with very hard, thick covers, and bound (repaired) with leather thongs holding the covers together) but the cover page is missing, so no date of printing. It is published and sold by Kimber and Sharpless, at their bookstore, No. 8 South 4th St., Philadelphia. There is a note in a 'To the Reader' page which mentions that they made 'the following impression from the Oxford edition of 1784 by Jackson & Hamilton,' so it was printed after that."
