Wilmore Family Bible

I am trying to locate a copy of a Wilmore Family Bible that was once in the hands of May L. Wilmore, 1871-1950, of Harrodsburg, KY, a descendant of John Wilmore 1755-1794 and his wife Jane Campbell 1759-1837. I am also a descendant of this John and Jane Wilmore, through their son John Wilmore, Jr.

In a 1932 letter to a cousin of hers, May Wilmore referred to the Bible as being her Aunt Hannah Wilmore's Family Bible which was then in her (May's) possession. May was unmarried as was her sister, Sallie L. Wilmore 1872-1955, and they both lived in Harrodsburg, KY. So far, I have been unable to locate a copy of the Family Bible birth and marriage records or determine the current location of the Bible if some relative has it.

The Bible family records have been used as a reference for lineage society applications, but the whereabouts of current record copies or the Bible itself is unknown to me.

If someone knows how these can be located, please provide a posting to let me know.
