Marty, Do you know if there is any thing like this for Scott Co.? My Wilson family was a fixture in Manchester from about 1836 ish to 1902. Most of the children had passed or moved on by 1902, but there was one child that I know of who stayed. She married a Greenwalt. My understanding is that the Greenwalt's were also a fixture in the area. Would love to find a directory such as this for the time frame my family was in this area.
