Arizona Bible Records

United States Arizona  Arizona Bible Records



A family Bible is a designation given to a Bible which has family information recorded on pages within the book. This has been a tradition among many families and is a good source of information about immediate family members and relatives, including names of parents, children, their spouses as well as their dates of birth, marriage and death. This is a valuable resource because, if the information is recorded as the event occurs, the information is regarded as being reliable. Also, for some families, Bible records may have the only recorded vital statistics information. Generally, family Bibles are passed down to succeeding generations, but those that are no longer in possession of the family may be at a historical or genealogical society.

The Daughters of the American Revolution collection contains some Bible records from Arizona. This collection is described in Arizona Genealogy under “Daughters of the American Revolution.”
