Original copies and\/or microfilm are known to survive for only two of these communities: Winnsboro (Winnsboro Wide Awake, Winnsboro Weekly News, and Winnsboro News) and Quitman (Wood County Democrat), the county seat. These newspapers are fertile researching ground. The flu and pneumonia epidemics of the later nineteen-teens caused the deaths of many of the original pioneers of Wood County. The Wood County Democrat was very good about printing biographical sketches about these old settlers. The Wood County Genealogical Society has extracted items of genealogical interest from all available papers published before 1920 plus two later issues of the Wood County Democrat that contained significant genealogical and historical information related to the nineteenth century. In addition to the usual births, deaths, and marriages, the abstracts include short notices and personal column items when these items included possible clues to family relationships. No attempt has been made to correct spelling, punctuation, or any other feature of the material that might be considered incorrect or inappropriate by contemporary standards. The character of the original material was considered of maximum importance. However, considerable liberty was exercised in extracting the genealogical content as many obituaries and family history sketches contained lengthy paragraphs of praise for persons and families not included in this book.

Pastors began sending in, together with their subscription money, notices of deaths and marriages and other interesting bits of information, not only about members of their church but about anybody they knew. The newspaper gave fascinating details on marriages, deaths, parsons taking up new posts, appointments complete with lists of references, reports of accidents, murders (\"the fiendish influence of Intemperance\"), arrests, convictions, hangings, and even good news, of the founding of scholarships and acts of human kindness ($30,000 returned by honest hack driver). As far as locale is concerned, entries are not limited to happenings in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and the Carolinas, but stretch as far as Florida, Missouri, Michigan (more than twenty-two states in all) and even Europe and Asia.

The Indian tribes inhabiting these lands found themselves displaced by the new settlers, who, unlike the French before them, were unwilling to share the land. Pontiac, sachem of the Ottawa, resolved to resist the incursion and in doing so united all the Indian nations who had been in the French interest against the English.

Readers may ponder the enormous amount of preparation needed, and the myriad hazards encountered by troops dispatched on military expeditions into the frontier.

As Miller provides a basic introductory survey of the press of this period, this work is essential for those seeking information on German-American history in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. This work provides a chronological survey covering the German-American press in Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, the South, and the West. In each city and county where there was a German-American news press, the newspaper publications are discussed, including such details as titles, names of founders, dates of publication, and information on editorial policy. Especially valuable are the numerous facsimiles of mastheads, as well as a selection of pages from the German-American press of the period. The rich illustrations in this work cannot be found in any other publication dealing with the German-American press. Also of special value, Miller provides geographical coverage to the topic, rather than dealing thematically with the German-American press, so that one can focus on a particular locale that might be of interest.

The Declaration of Independence is formed and adopted.
