Synopsis
Excerpt from Gazetteer and Business Directory of Ontario County, N. Y., For 1867-68
French's Gazetteer of the State of New York, and from Turner's History of the Phelps and Gorham Purchase. Many others have kindly volunteered their aid, to all of whom we return sincere thanks.
When it is known that time, equal to nearly three years' labor, if done by one man, has been devoted to the canvass, and the great difficulty many times experienced by the agents in collecting the necessary information, it is believed the patrons of the work willwillingly excuse any seemingly short-comings in the complete ness of the work.
The advertisers in this work represent many of the leading busi ness men of the County, and we most cheerfully commend them all to the patronage of those under whose observation these pages may come.
So complete a canvass of a county for a Business Directory, and the additions of farmers' names, together with the number of acres owned or leased by each, the whole arranged alphabetically, after their appropriate post office addresses, we believe has never been attempted by any other publisher.
That errors may have occurred in so great a number of names and dates as are here given, is probable. The indulgence of the reader is solicited in marking such as had been observed in the sub sequent reading of the proofs, and which are noted in the Errata, following the Introduction.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the history of Ontario County, New York from its beginning as a territory of Native American occupation through its transformation into a thriving agricultural hub. Written in 1867 by the author, Hamilton Child, the book delves into the rich social history of the county and provides ample insight into the nature of rural life in 19th century America. Featuring the detailed accounts of the county's earliest settlers and their interactions with the native Seneca tribe, this book gives a unique perspective on the history of the frontier and westward expansion. Through its telling of major historical events like the Sullivan Expedition and the construction of the Erie Canal, the author paints a vivid picture of the forces that shaped the county's development. Alongside an exploration of the rise of the county's agricultural prosperity and the establishment of its major towns, this book also details the social and economic impact of the county's involvement in the Civil War. The author's work offers unique insight into the history of westward expansion, rural life in the mid-19th century, and the often-overlooked story of agricultural development in the United States.
