Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gazetteer is fundamentally a geographical dictionary that lists names in alphabetical order. Mr. Gordon, an eminent historian in his time, did laborious research of public records and had personal contact with officials of every county in an effort to make this book as complete and accurate as possible. Pennsylvania land record research is often made difficult by the lack of a specific location within a given county. Its not unusual to find the only description of land is the name of a road, mountain, or a creek mentioned in a deed but which cannot be found on a modern map. Many towns and settlements, which existed in previous years either completely disappeared and/or the place names were changed. In these instances, even the best current maps are of no use and earlier century maps are not readily available in most of the United States. For this reason, the value of old gazetteers in locating and identifying our ancestors cannot be overemphasized. Names and locations of all cities, towns, villages, rivers, creeks, mountains, lakes and hamlets that existed in Pennsylvania in 1832, including some of the most unusual places are found in this gazetteer. Once located in this book, in most circumstances, these sites can be correlated in relationship to present day jurisdictions. Statistical tables for each county listing the townships that existed in 1832 as well as population schedules and the number of taxables for each township are included. The last section of the Gazetteer lists all the post offices in the state for that year. A very valuable tool for the genealogist. Enlarged to provide easier reading, this reprint, out-of-print for many years, should be of great value to the genealogist, historian or geographer.

Book excerpt: This much sought-after and well-researched geographical dictionary of Butler County offers many enrichments that fills a large gap in resource material for this county. Five years in the making, this innovative and unusual work provides an alphabetical listing of municipalitites, landmarks, post offices, creeks, railroad stations, ghost towns and other places that just aren't there anymore. Entries are detailed with their locations, how they got their names, their significance, a brief history and name changes. Also included is a fresh overview of Butler County with up-to-date manufacturing, agricultural, natural history and deographics information with a brief history of each township. Map transparencies illustrate how the four original townships have become 33, and are located in a pocket inside the back cover of the book. The cartographer created new maps for each township that identify the entries from the text including previous names and extinct towns. Another bonus is a map illustrating the lay-out of downtown Butler in the nineteenth century. Extensively footnoted and with an impressive bibliograhy and hard cover, this book is not just entertaining and informative, it is also a valuable resource.
