Potter and Company in 1873. It apparently started out in the Martin V. Lane family, based on the names recorded in the Bible. It eventually ended up in the possession of Edith Lane Bledsoe, who gave it to James Lane. It is currently in the possession of Robert Lane, Terre Haute, IN. This transcription was done by Robert Lane. I have transcribed the data just as it was recorded. Also, I added explanations [in brackets] to some of the entries where I felt it would be helpful.
