This book makes no pretention to be clasical.<br><br>It merely tells the time, circumstances and people connected with this community, in which all are interested. It starts with the earliest records regardless of personality or religion, as far back as 1734 accurately, and follows these people as they cut the forest and till the soil, build towns, make laws, and pass away. No personal history is named save the Emmit family as a whole, this is due the founder of the town. All the churches are historically spoken of, so far as the information could be obtained. Let none feel slighted if their name is not in the book. The enterprises from 1785 to the present are in full. Some of the olden tombstones are copied, to show the place of burial of the early settlers. Receive the book for just what it claims for itself, nothing more.
