This book is a significant piece of family history titled The Jolley Family Book, specifically the 1966 edition published by Brigham Young University Press. It was compiled by Bryant Manning (B.M.) Jolley and a committee of family members. What is this book? It is a comprehensive genealogical record detailing the history and descendants of Henry Jolley (1789–1850) and his wife Frances Manning Jolley (1787–1844). The Jolleys were prominent early members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. After joining the church in North Carolina and moving to Nauvoo, Illinois, the family eventually crossed the plains to the Salt Lake Valley in 1848. Henry Jolley was a pioneer who helped settle areas like Pleasant Grove, Utah. The book is nearly 1,000 pages long and acts as a family bible for their thousands of descendants. Does it have value? Yes, it has both sentimental and monetary value: • Market Value: Because these books were often printed in limited quantities for family members, they are quite rare. A copy in similar condition to yours (showing some shelf wear) can sell for $200 to $350 to collectors or family historians. • Historical Value: It is a vital primary source for LDS pioneer history and North Carolina/Tennessee genealogy.
