A cooperative effort between the Tallahassee Genealogical Society and the Florida State Archives was first undertaken in 1987, which allowed members of the general public to have selected pages of their family bibles copied, to preserve the valuable information in those precious family heirlooms. Photocopies of the materials were provided to the contributing individuals, and to the society. A bible record transcription project was begun by the TGS in 1987 but never completed. The opportunity for photocopying was repeated in 1996, and again in early 1997. The TGS again started a transcription project to incorporate all the donated materials from the three copy sessions. The project was suspended in the Fall of 1997.

The transcription project was resumed in the Summer of 2015. The project outcome consists of downloadable, searchable, PDF files of the typed bible transcriptions, photocopied bible pages (including the title page, if provided), and any additional materials provided by the contributors. Hosted here, on the TGS website, the records are accessible to the general public at no cost.
