Book Description
Excerpt from Historical Encyclopedia of Illinois, and History of Winnebago County, Vol. 2 Sixteen years ago my History of Early Rockford was published by the New England Society. The work was graciously received and became at once the recognized authority on the subject. It has been placed in all the public schools of Rockford and in some of the rural districts throughout Winnebago County. The need of a supplementary work, that would bring the record down to date, has been recognized for years, but the expense involved in its publica tion has made it practically impossible as an individual enterprise.
