I was just browsing rootschat posts and came across this and feel compelled to butt in. It is amazing that your simple request appears to have found your bible!  ;D This is so exciting! Please tell us more.

Welcome to rootschat ictmanager!  ;D

Whoops!!! Really sorry if I have got your hopes up...just dug out the bible, and it's from the other side of my family, the Bishops of North Devon, from about 1821 onwards. The reason I was confused was because it was kept by my grandmother who had written all the ancestral names in the front, and SHE was originally a Northam before she was married, from the same area........

Never mind - maybe you have a connection with Nicola via your Devon Northams anyway.  ;)
