For those of you related to Renee and her mother Joann Schantz, this is a picture of the Johannes Hooley* bible that Johannes, 1714-1783, brought with him to North America when he arrived in 1750. The bible is a special, ornate bible printed in 1531, called a Froschauer Bible. the bible is on display at the Amish & Mennonite Heritage Center in Holmes County, Ohio.
Johannes is my 5th great-grandfather. I have been at the Ohio Amish Library at the Amish and Mennonite Heritage Center for the last couple of days totally immersing in genealogy and Amish/Mennonite History.
