Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rock County, Wisconsin, Vol. 1 of 2: A New History of Its Cities, Villages, Towns, Citizens and Varied Interests, From the Earliest Times, Up to Date J. G. Rexford, president of the First National Bank; Dr. S. B. Buckmaster, Superintendent H. C. Buell, ex-president of the State Teachers' Association; Prof, R. C. Chapin, of Beloit Col lege, our veteran county supervisor; F. F. Livermore, and the experienced clerk of the Beloit school board, were each and all very manifestly masters of the topics they treat. A knowledge of our manufacturing interests, however, might not seem to be within the line of ordinary legal experience. But the experiences of J. B. Dow, Esq., of Beloit, and of Lawyer A. E. Matheson, of Janesville, have not been merely legal, as their illuminating, respective records show. The Editor is proud of all his associates and of each and all of their contributions to this history. We are indebted also to Mr. Horace White, of New York, for the use of papers from his pen, and to ex-congressman L. B. Caswell, of Fort Atkinson; Hon. Ellery Crane, of Worcester, Mass; Dr. T. C. Chamberlin, of Chicago University; F. W. Coon, of Edgerton; Professor Shaw and Rev. Frank Jackson, of Milton; E. B. Heim street, George Sutherland, Esq., and Mayor S. B. Heddles, of Janesville; Prof. G. L. Collie, Banker Walter Brittan, C. B. Sal mon, Charles Ran, L. S. Moseley, of Beloit, and to Ira P. Nye, of Eureka, Kas, for interesting contributions or information. The several papers by women authors, the reminiscences of I. T. Smith and the History of the J anesville Press, by the late A. O. Wilson, were taken from the original manuscripts, deposited in the State Historical Society library building at Madison. The Editor is acquainted with all the previous histories of this region and both appreciates and acknowledges his indebted ness to them. By thorough research he has sought to correct their mistakes, add new material, some of it unique, and bring the whole record up to date. That excerpt from the records of Stonington (vol. I, page 80) and the Marriage Register of Rev. Dexter Clary (page 265) are especially valuable finds. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Janesville written by Judith Adler and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1837, Henry Janes, one of the area's first settlers, proposed the name "Black Hawk" for the small southern Wisconsin settlement he lived in, but the US Post Office chose Janesville. The village along the Rock River was selected as the Rock County seat, and by 1860 it had grown to become Wisconsin's second largest city. Janesville developed into an important railroad town and, because of its waterpower, a milling and manufacturing center. General Motors built a large plant, and George Parker started the Parker Pen Company here. As the city grew, land was donated or set aside for recreation, and today Janesville calls itself Wisconsin's Park Place. Its population has grown to more than 62,000.

Book excerpt: Edgerton became a city in 1853. It was named after a modest railroad engineer, Benjamin Hyde Edgerton, who warned people to "wait until after I'm dead, because I might do something in the meantime to discredit the name."
