Bible of Rev. Daniel Warren and Sarah A. (Sawyer) Warren of Guilford, Maine, and Bangor, Maine


Bible of Rev. Daniel Warren and Sarah A. Warren, who were married at Guilford, Maine, in 1842 and raised their family at Bangor, Maine.

Read more about Rev. Daniel Warren, who joined the Grace Church at Bangor, Maine, in 1832, in a publication of the East Maine Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church.

The Bible, which was printed in 1850 by S. Andrus and Son of Hartford, Connecticut, measures approximately 11-1/2" by 9-1/2" by 2-1/2".  The covers and spine are vibrant and may have been restored or replaced.  Sadly, the Bible came into contact with water at some point, but the damage is limited to staining.


Three of the Family Records pages show entries.  The Marriages page:


Parents Daniel Warren
Sarah A. Sawyer
They were married in Guilford, Maine, on November 28, 1842, by Rev. L. P. French.

Note:  Rev. Luther P. French later served as chaplain of the 20th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment, which won acclaim at the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863.
