This is a scan of a page from the family Bible of Hannah Wilson Oviatt, sent to us as attachments to an e-mail from Anne Lowery, Library Director at New London Public Library. The Bible is unrelated to her family, and she is unaware of its origins. It was published in New York by the American Bible Society, 1844.

Hannah, wife of Nathan Oviatt, lived in Ravenna, Portage County, Ohio, and may be buried in Maple Grove Cemetery, Ravenna, Portage County. The Oviatt family was centered in Braceville, Trumbull County, and many Oviatts are buried in the Braceville Center Cemetery (Find A Grave).
