Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Gazetteer of the State of New-Hampshire The citizens of New-Hampshire are now presented with a new Gazetteer of the State, compiled from original and authentic materials, and embracing the following subjects: I. A general view of the State of New-Hampshire, comprehending the boundaries and area; divisions; face of the country; soil and productions; climate; health and longevity; mountains; lakes and rivers; canals; turnpikes and bridges; geology and mineralogy; government and laws; revenue and expenses; militia; population; manufactures and commerce; literary institutions; education; manners and customs; religion; societies; banks; statehouse; penitentiary; curiosities; Indians, and history. II. A general view of the Counties, topographical and historical; with statistical tables, exhibiting the number of meeting-houses, school-houses, taverns, stores, mills, factories, &c., in each. III. A general description of Towns, and of all the mountains, lakes, ponds, rivers, &c., comprehending 1. A concise description of the several towns in the State, in relation to their boundaries, divisions, mountains, lakes, ponds, &c. 2. The early history of each town; names of the first settlers, and what were their hardships and adventures; instances of longevity, or of great mortality; and short biographical notices of the most distinguished and useful men. 3. A concise notice of the formation of the first churches in the several towns; the names of those who have been successively ordained as ministers, and the time of their settlement, removal or death. Also, notices of permanent charitable and other institutions, literary societies, &c. It is unnecessary to offer an apology to the public for the appearance of a work, the utility of which, if well executed, no one will question. We rather claim indulgence, that so long a period has elapsed, since we first announced our intended publication. To have completed it at an earlier period, was originally our intention; and it was not until several months of diligent inquiry had passed, that we understood the difficulty of the task in which we had engaged. Though in many cases, we have had prompt and able assistance, the difficulty of procuring the necessary information in others, has caused ho inconsiderable anxiety and delay. Few men are intimately acquainted with the early history of their own towns - the generation active in the first settlements having passed away, and little pains being taken to preserve their history.

This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Wetzel County, West Virginia The History of vvetzel County runs from the year of 1772 to the present time. The author has used great pains in securing the most important events during that time, and has succeeded as far as the interesting matter is concerned, though there may be a few incidents left out for the want of data. The most im portant ones have been secured. There may be incidents in the history of the county that would not only speak bad of the morality of the county, but would bring back remembrances of unhappy days, and things that would sadden the pages of Wet zel's History. Wetzel county for years has been suffering with a'name that she does not deserve, and she is gradually blotting it out. In the history of the county there are a great many men whose lives should have been mentioned in the book but were not, from the fact that the author could not secure anything concerning them. The author has put-in four months in se curing information and in writing this history. It does not require very much of an education to write a book of this kind.
