HOWE'S OHIO COUNTY HISTORIES IN INDIVIDUAL COUNTY FORMAT.
*NEW LISTINGS: NEW BOOKS. WF2-OH: HOWE'S HISTORICAL COLLECTIONS OF OHIO. Order by Howe's, county name and price:
These
booklets are excerpts from this huge two-volume set by Henry Howe which
were published in his 1898 Edition and covered all of Ohio's Counties.
These have been reprinted from the original by The Bookmark from
Knightstown, Indiana, which is no longer in business and I am unable to
reorder these. Most of these are new, but I have attended several
seminars with them and they may be somewhat shopworn as people checked
for their surnames in them at seminars.
[NOTE from the
publisher]: Dr. Howe LL.D., wrote, compiled and sketched his original
History of Ohio in 1847. Between 1885 and 1890, he compiled a revised
and enlarged edition of his original history. His concise, yet
informative, history of each county in Ohio should prove valuable to
genealogical researchers not having this book readily available to
search..
Dr. Howe's Introduction to his two-volume set is
worthy of inclusion in each county book. These individual booklets,
most about 6" by 9¼", some a little smaller, some a little larger, the
size depending solely on how and in what size they were printed at the
time. All have cardstock covers. All are stapled. The larger ones,
from Bookmark, which were done on 8 ½ " by 11" paper and cut to size
before stapling, are also taped. The dates covered by the history of
each county are listed with that county and their individual prices are
listed also, as well as the quantity for the Bookmark products I have
on hand to sell. For the Book B price list, I either have none (XX) or
just one, which I have not separately marked with a quantity, but
should you want any of these after my stock is depleted, I can order
more.
These histories have been reprinted many times over the
years because of their value both to historians and genealogists.
Although there are 88 counties in Ohio, these copies are the only ones
I have still in stock. This is a final close-out of this Bookmark
product.
The original Howe's Histories now sell on the rare
book market for hundreds of dollars, and these reprints of each
county's history are much more affordable. Genealogists may have only
a few lines that passed through Ohio to get to somewhere else and only
have an interest in one or a few of the counties. This breaking down
of the entire set allows them to purchase only the counties they want.
All
of these booklets are illustrated with Howe's sketches made from 1846
to 1890. As the number of pages varied, so did the price. Most of the
books were 20 or more pages. Sample format from the book for Adams
County contains 20 pages of text plus the one-page reproduction of the
1868 Atlas of Ohio map for Adams County by H. F. Walling, which was
reduced to fit the page. Next, is Dr. Howe's Introduction to the
Centennial Edition of four pages. The history, itself for this one
county sample, begins on page 223 of the original book & continues
to page 240.
A population total is given in the Adams County
Book from the census data for 1840 and 1880 for each township, and
totals for 1820. 1840, 1860 and 1880 including the number that were
Ohio-born in 1880. Articles in the Adams County book include the
following: The Settlement at Manchester is recorded in detail.
Israel Donalson's Narrative of his Captivity, The Shawnee Camp,
McDonald's account of Indian history at Manchester, Ellison's
Captivity, The first Court Held in West Union in 1846, Manchester,
Industries and Employees, the Bark Cutters, Plan of the Serpent Mound,
Traveling Notes, Bellefontaine, Old Soldiers, Women of the Scioto
Valley, The Scotch Irish, Steamboat Racing, Experience of an Old Time
River Man, River Beacons, The Best Sleep in History and the Blessing of
the Moon are just some of the topics covered in this book. Very
interesting reading, early and later settler's names and six very
helpful sketches to see, too! Similar formats are used throughout all
the counties. Most are available in this one mini-volume for this one
county. Price A books are for the Bookmark editions of this series.
Price MTNP books are books published by a different publisher. They are the
same materials in a larger size, 8½" by 11", with larger print, with a
newer style cardstock cover, wrapped around the entire book, and are
all newly done in a more recent printing. I only have one each of most
of the Price MTNP books. If I have none of the books now, it is shown by
XX. I can re-order any column MTNP books for you.

GALBREATH'S OHIO STATE HISTORY
*NEW
LISTINGS: USED. FFOH-2A & FFOH-2B - D021. HISTORY OF OHIO.
BOOK SET: With emphasis on the Historical and Biographical Aspects.
By Charles B. Galbreath, Secretary of the Ohio State Archaeological and
Historical Society, Former State Librarian and Secretary of the Ohio
Constitutional Convention (1912). Historical and Biographical, in
three volumes, Original Edition. Illustrated, Published by The American
Historical Society, Inc. Chicago and New York, 1928. THREE VOLUMES
for one PRICE: $200. The Prefatory note is of great value, for it is
here that the author gives the book-by-book compilation of the various
Histories of Ohio, and their author's qualifications with their
publication data. An original, matched set in good shape for their age
as they are eighty years old. Covers have an occasional bumped corner,
but books are neat and well bound. They have obviously been well cared
for. No covers are loose.
Volume I includes many articles,
the most interesting, being the How and When(?) Ohio became a state,
[Ohio voted in 1803 to apply for statehood and did so, however Congress
failed to formally acknowledge and admit the state of Ohio to the Union
at that time, and did not officially recognize it for over one hundred
years, but it clearly did function as a state during that period. The
evidence is that during that time ten Presidents were elected, seven of
which were born in Ohio. And of five Chief Justices of the U. S.
chosen during that time, three were appointed from Ohio. [This
controversy as to its date of admission continues as there are five
separate dates which, in some important document, represent the birth
of the State of Ohio. [[Leave it to a Legislature, Executive Branch or
Judicial System to "mess up" and when they all have a say in it, you
can be sure they will NOT agree.]] March 1, 1803, is the most commonly
accepted date.
The Counties of Ohio section follows. This is
one of the most outstanding features of this set of books. Volume I
contains the following articles: Introduction, Sketch of the
Geological Formation of Ohio, A History of Flood Control in Ohio,
Archaeology of Ohio, The Struggle for the Ohio Country, The North
American Indian, The Dunmore War, From the Conspiracy of Pontiac to the
Treaty of Paris, The Ordinance
of 1787-its Origin and Authorship,
The Northwest Territory under Gov. Arthur St. Clair, Gen. Arthur St.
Clair's Expedition Against the Indians, Wayne's Campaign Against the
Indians, Treaty of Greenville, How and When (?) Ohio Became a
State(detailed above), Counties of Ohio, Ohio's Public School System,
Ohio's Institutions of Higher Learning, Ohio Public Libraries,
Newspaper Press of Ohio, Ohio Literary Men and Women, The War of 1812,
The War with Mexico, The Civil War, Our War with Spain and Ohio in the
World War. The index begins on Page xi (11) and continues through page
L (50).
Beginning on page 669 and running to the end of Volume
1 is a list of those brave men of Ohio, who in the First World War gave
their last full measure of devotion and earned the Gold Star. These
6,500 men are listed in this section alphabetically by county. They
will not be forgotten. Army, Navy and Marines, with no indication of
their rank, who died, are listed with their date of death, including
the women of the Army Nurse Corps who served and died beside them.
Generals are listed separately.
Details are given on the
formation of each county, The county sketches, and all 88 of them are
covered in detail, give you a lot of information. These are not the
same skethes as are availlable in the above individual county books by
Howe's. You get the census figures from 1920, the farm reports as to
the crops grown and bushels harvested, size of farms, etc. Maps
abound, parent counties are named, county officers are named, little
hamlets to small towns to large cities are identified. You will find
out where they came up with the county's name, what the soil is like,
what minerals are present, the area in square miles, the name of all
the townships, what kind of population settled here, who came first,
what groups, if any, settled here, where they came from (states or
countries). The 1923-1924 agricultural census furnished lots of data
about how many dairy cows, bushels of potatoes, tons of hay, and the
average farm size and lots more. In Licking County, they mention the
"Refugee Tract" [100,000 acres] where some Canadians who supported the
Americans during the Revolutionary War were relocated with the awards
of property given by our Government to former residents of the British
Provinces in Canada whose lands were confiscated in Canada, and then
they were told to leave. Many came to Ohio. Many served in the war on
our side and were rewarded with from 160 acres to 2,240 acres in
Franklin, Licking and Perry Counties.
They talk about the Ohio
Canal which runs through Licking County. This sketch covers farms,
what they grew, how many bushels, etc. and manufacturing shops and what
they made. They mention the Drummer Boy of Shiloh and Chickamauga,
Johnny Clem, the smallest person ever enlisted in any army, who was
born in Newark in 1851, and ran away to enlist in the Union Army in the
Civil War. They mention the "Mound Builders and their works" as the
tourist attraction it still is today. These sketches tell you much of
the early history of that county. Articles on the Public Schools,
Newspapers, The War of 1812, Mexican War, Civil War and Spanish
American War are all covered in Volume I. A large 38-page index, which
covers the entire set, comes at the FRONT of Volume I.
Volume II
covers the Constitution of Ohio and the three conventions that hammered
out the final form by 1912. Volume II, like Volume I, has matched
bindings all of which are tight, 832 pages, dark green heavy bindings
with hinges that are good and tight. This second book covers the
following sub-topics: The Constitutional Evolution of Ohio,
Constitutional Convention of 1802, From the Constitutional Convention
of 1802 to the Constitutional Convention of 1850-1851, The
Constitutional Convention of 1850-1851, Men of the Second
Constitutional Convention of Ohio, From the Constitutional Convention
of 1851 to the Constitutional Convention of 1873-1874, Constitutional
Convention of 1873-1874. Men of the Third Constitutional Convention
(1873-1874) of Ohio, Amendment of the Constitution, Constitutional
Convention of 1912, Since the Constitutional Convention of 1912,
Anti-Slavery in Northwest Territory, Anti-Slavery in Ohio, The
Underground Railroad, By Force of Arms, The Temperance Movement in
Ohio, The Women's Suffrage Movement in Ohio, the Ohio State Grange,
Annals of Ohio Administrations and Eminent Ohioans. This book focuses
on the Political side and to that end the lists at the back of this
volume are of Women who have Served in the Legislative and Judicial
Departments of the State, United States Senators from Ohio, Ohio
Congressmen and a fact sheet with some interesting, though dated, facts
about Ohio. In 1928 Ohio had 7 million people, was an agricultural and
an industrial state, had 80 cities, had 30,000 domestic and foreign
corporations authorized to do business in Ohio, 94 steam railroads, 85
street railroads, 217 electric companies, 117 gas companies, 495
telephone companies, 950 savings and loans associations, 1,110 state
and local banks, 840 insurance companies, among many other businesses,
had 40,730 square miles of land, only 4% was laid waste, and 30,000
acres of inland lakes! Would be interesting to get today's estimates
wouldn't it? A Chapter on Eminent Ohioans concludes the second
volume. PRICE: Three Volumes for $200.
Volume III contains
the biographical part of this history. Beginning with John Walworth
and his family, there are biographies and family histories, portraits,
and genealogical information stunning in its details.
In the
sketch of John Gallagher, the first page is of his background, his 47
trips to Europe, his wholesale liquor business, two full pages of
details includes this paragraph: "September 12, 1873, John Gallagher
married Rose Kennedy, daughter of Bernard and Elizabeth Kennedy of
Letterkenny, Donegal County, Ireland. Children: 1. Patrick, living in
Warren County, Ohio. 2. Elizabeth, wife of Christopher William
Deibel, manager of the Liberty Theatre in Youngstown by whom she has
children: John C., born in 1903; Dorothy Mary, born in 1905; Ellen
Elizabeth, born in 1907; Rosemary, born in 1909; Chrtistopher, Jr.,
born in 1918, died in 1926. 3. Mary, wife of Emil A. Renner, realtor,
by whom she has children: George J. the 4th, born in 1907; John A.,
born 1909; William W. born 1911; Robert J. born 1913; and E. Arthur,
Jr., born 1917.
On January 6, 1924, at the age of seventy-nine, Mr.
Gallagher passed on to the highest reward which awaited one of his
genuine goodness and exemplary life. He left behind a sorrowing family
and many friends who appreciated his sterling worth to his community.]
The
index to this section, apparently did not extend to grandchildren of
the subject. The book does, but the index does not, so the actual
number of people in these sketches may be higher than the number I am
listing. The index includes the following surnames with two (,) or

also has an additional eight full-page pictures of portraits. The
back of the portraits is left blank. All three are priced to sell as a
set for $200. Some genealogist with Ohio Ancestors would be so pleased
to have this book in their personal library! PRICE: THREE VOLUMES FOR
$200.
