Excerpt from History of McDonough County, Illinois, Its Cities, Towns and Villages: With Early Reminiscences, Personal Incidents and Anecdotes, and a Complete Business Directory of the CountyAs previously remarked, the difficulty in securing information was far greater than be anticipated, especially has this been the case with respect to dates. In order to learn the dates of the settlements made by William Carter and William Job, several weeks were spent in visiting and interviewing old settlers, besides writing many letters to those who had formerly lived in the county and were supposed to be cognizant of the facts in the case. The conclusions arrived at are satisfactory to his mind, and will be to the mind of any who will take the same trouble to obtain the knowledge. The same care taken to learn the exact time in which the settlements mentioned were made, has been taken to verify every fact given. That errors may creep in, however guarded one may be, cannot be doubted but I believe they will be few and far between.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
