Description: MONROE COUNTY, OHIO Early days in Monroe County, OH, including the communities of Woodsfield, Clarington, Beallsville, Graysville, Calais, Cameron and Stafford, are recalled through a mixture of colorful tales and factual data in this NEW 14 Page Booklet reprinted from the 1892 Centennial edition of Henry Howe's Historical Collections of Ohio and other sources. The spiral-bound booklet is printed one-sided on quality paper with the fine print enlarged for easier reading. A sheet of clear vinyl has been added to protect the front cover. Illustrations include Woodsfield in 1886 and a drawing of Woodsfield forty years earlier. Among the many and diverse topics in the booklet are: early settlements, log cabin design, food of the pioneers, wolf hunting, social activities of pioneer days, the heroic adventure of the Johnson Boys, the founding of Woodsfield, the first German and Swiss settlements, subscription schools, Indian tales and the story of Jamie Shaw and his dog.

A 1933 look at the history of newspapers in the county, a brief article on Ohio's narrow guage railroad, and a map identifying Ohio's 88 counties and a map of 1805 Ohio are also included. Wouldn't this make a unique gift?
