The Lewis Family Welsh Bible

This is written by Lewis Helgeson, 6:18 PM on 4/5/97.

My mother, Rose Veletta Lewis, gave me her Welsh Bible that she received from her mother in 1904. It contains the births (and some of the deaths) of various mambers of the Lewis families back to Evan Prothero Lewis, born April 21, 1792 and his wife Elizabeth Lewis, born Nov. 29, 1796.

I shall bring it to the Lewis Family Reunion that will be held Saturday, 26-July-1997, at the LDS Church located about 16 miles out of Evanston, Wyoming, on Route 150 South. In the meantime, here are some of the scanned pages, including her signature on the back of the cover page.
