We found, among
Joan Hackworth Weir's belongings, the
King James Bible 1847 edition, belonging to
John Wesley Hackworth. The cover was a little damaged through damp but otherwise perfectly readable. there was an inscription on the inside cover that shows it was presented to him by his sister
Prudence (Hackworth) Nightingale on April 10th 1875.
I've no idea who
Mrs Peter Le Coco was - as it says on the cover of the Bible, below.
The Spine of the Bible
The Inscription
The Inscription reads " Presented to J.W. Hackworth by his affectionate sister P. Nightingale, April 10th 1875."
