MINNEAPOLIS â The Bible was stained and worn, with missing pages and detached covers and an exposed spine.
Phil Handy had found it in his auntâs Florida attic, wrapped in thin brown paper. The book was unassuming, the size of a fat brick. But for years, Handy had heard rumors of a family Bible dating back to the Revolutionary War and containing handwritten genealogy information, including dates of birth.
âThe thought immediately flashed â could this be it?â Handy said.
Gingerly, he opened it to find handwriting. It was faded, but it was there.
Handy, 76, brought the Bible home to Minnesota and began searching for a book conservator. A call led to an e-mail led to a studio, in a garage loft in Stillwater, home to Valkyrie Conservation. In May, months after dropping off the book with conservator Bailey Kinsky, he returned to see the pages he was once too scared to turn.

The Mesa County Board of Commissioners named four new finalists for its county attorney position Monday, including former 21st Judicial District Attorney Pete Hautzinger, who now works as a federal prosecutor in Grand Junction.
The other three are Deputy Mesa County Attorney Jeremy Savage, Assistant 7th Judicial District Attorney Robert Zentner, and Todd Starr, who has worked as a county attorney in three Western Slope counties.
The four finalists are the result of a third attempt by county commissioners to replace former County Attorney Patrick Coleman, whose contract was not renewed in January after six years on the job.
In the first round, commissioners named two finalists, offering the job to one who later turned them down. In the second round, commissioners named former Mesa County Commissioner Rose Pugliese as their sole finalist, but she later withdrew her application before the job was offered.
