History of Athens County, Ohio: And Incidentally of the Ohio Land Company and the First Settlement of the State at Marietta

ByCharles Manning Walker

A re-created version of the original book by Charles M. Walker originally published in 1869. This rare history not only tells of the settlement and early days of Athens County, but also details the formation of the Ohio Company and the first settlement in Ohio at Marietta. This book is undoubtedly one of the finest books ever written documenting the early days of the American frontier and trials and tribulations of the first settlers. It contains many stories, some first hand accounts, of these early pioneers and the settlement of the old Northwest Territory. It includes biographies of some of the individuals that settled there as well as historical facts of interest pertaining to Southeastern Ohio in general and Athens County in particular. Photos,illustrations,index and annotations have been added by Badgley Publishing Company
