I find it very sad.

We all know how much hard work must have gone into that family tree!

I just hope it ends up with its family!

It would be lovely to buy it and reunite it with its rightful owners. If there are any of course!

Oh! How could anyone do that? Then again, from what some Rootschatters have said, some people couldn't give a fig. I find it really sad. I'd love to have my Nan's family Bible.

Some people  >:(  I presume that it's not their own family bible, they are not giving much away in the description.

How very sad. :'( :'(

At least now they have put a photo up and after much prompting they have said the family name is Barge.

Still makes me sad though.

I would keep it, even if it wasn't my family.  Or at least try and reunite it with its owners. The worst way, I think I'd donate it to a local museum or something.

I find that absolutely disgusting and shows what a commercial world we live in with often no values.
