Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Twentieth Century History of Marshall County, Indiana, Vol. 1: Illustrated When the writer entered into an agreement with the publishers of this work that he would write a History of Marshall County, he was fully aware of the herculean task that loomed up before him. He had had considerable experience along the lines of his'toric writing, and knew that to gather the data and compile and write such a history as would be satisfactory to the patrons of the work, and creditable to the writer and to the publishers as well, would be a laborious work not easy of accomplishment. The writer was the author of the first history of Marshall county ever written, and for nearly thirty years was the editor of the Plymouth Demo crat, during which time he gathered much data and wrote many articles on historical subjects, expecting at some future time to write another history of the county, greatly revised and improved. That time has come in the. Writing of the present history. The facts contained in the first history writ ten by him in 1881 and in the sketches written for his paper from time to time, will be used in this work as occasion may require, as facts never change and history cannot be written without them. The writer came to Marshall county with his parents in 1836, when a mere child; when the county was also in its infancy, and almost a wilder ness, with few log cabins, no churches or schoolhouses and no public build ings; and as he has grown to manhood and age 'he has seen it developed from year to year, from a population of a few hundred to more than with churches and schoolhouses on every hand, magnificent county buildings, five lines of railroads, telegraphs and telephones, and everything that can be desired to make life comfortable and enjoyable. Time is swiftly passing away. Already three-quarters of a century has gone since the first white settlement was made, and the few now living who were here then must soon depart to that undiscovered country from whose bourne no traveler returns. While they yet remain it is deemed advisable to obtain the facts within their knowledge and place them upon permanent record for the benefit of those who come after they are gone.

Download or read book Marshall County written by Connie M. Huddleston and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 19th century, settlers established ferries across the Tennessee River in Kentucky and grew crops, including corn and tobacco. Small communities formed around schools and crossroads. Cheap land prices and lust for westward expansion fueled population growth. In 1842, Marshall County was created and named for Chief Justice John Marshall. Over the next 100 years, some roadside communities grew into small, prosperous towns. James Love founded Birmingham, a port on the Tennessee River, which became the county's largest community. Downriver Gilbertsville profited from river traffic and rail transportation, while Hardin and Calvert City developed strictly around rail stops. Benton slowly matured as the county seat. Still the county was mostly rural farming communities until the devastating flood of 1937 brought the Tennessee Valley Authority to Gilbertsville to build Kentucky Dam.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Centennial Address on the History of Marshall County I appear before you to-day, in response to your request, to deliver a lecture on the History of Mar shall County. I thank you for the-invitation. With me, this is a labor of love. Forty years, save two, I have lived within its borders, and borne my humble part in its struggles. After that period, full as it is of vicissitudes, wider in their range than almost any other in human experience, only a few of the early actors remain. The forms of those with whom I once associated, in the stirring scenes of busy life. And who have gone to the unknown land, flit palpably before me. We recall them for a brief moment, when we and they will alike vanish from the stage and be heard no more.
