Through
the courtesy of J. L. Hosick, merchant of Elizabethtown, I have
access to an Illinois Atlas published in 1876, the centennial year of American
Independence. It was purchased about that time by Mr. Hosick's grandfather,
Joseh T Hosick. This directory ought to pass as history with interest to the
decendants and other relatives of these early business men of our county. Below
I am giving their names, their business, their native homes, and the dates of
their settlements in our county. -- Chairman.
