Book Description

Excerpt from Old Settlers History of York County and Individual Biographies Dear Sir: Your letter regarding information about A. D. Jones has been received, and we find that Alfred D. Jones was born in Philadelphia, January 30, 1814. A Nebraska handbook makes a brief mention that York county was named after York, England, but gives no reason for it. This is all I can find. Am sorry it is so meager. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
