Foss' from Maine

Question by rubies

I have a friend that has come across a family Bible with several names and dates. The dates were back from the 1800's and she is trying to find the correct home for this family Bible. It does mention the state of Maine with some of these dates. This family Bible also had a picture in it and it was probably taken in the 1970's put not sure of who it is. Can anyone help us find this Foss family Bible a home?

I am descended from Johann (John) Foss of Maine. My ancestor, Lyman Peter Foss, was born in Maine in 1803 and left for Ohio, where he married about 1830. Soon after marriage, they left for Indiana and settled in the NE corner of Indiana to farm.

I would suspect this family Bible is likely somehow related to my lines.
