Timothy Blake Bible
3 February 2019 in the possession of David Rance

According to Rance, The Bible passed to Mary Trott who married Nahum Pettygrove (who wrote in it "Mary Pettygrove's Book") and then down through her line of descendents. "The Bible was printed in 1762 and would have belonged to Timothy Blake (1740 - c 1783) the Revolutionary War veteran because it records the birth of his five children. There is only two generations worth of genealogical information recorded from those early days, but subsequent research by family members seems to have at least partly traced the ownership of the Bible down to present day, where it ended up in the basement of an heirless descendent living in St Catherine's, Ontario.
