I have found this book to be very helpful, and the date on the one I have seen was 1896. Many public libraries in counties surrounding Clay probably have this resource. I have looked at it at both the Vigo County Public Library in Terre Haute and the Brazil Public Library. I'm sure the Clay County Genealogical library also owns a copy. Laura E.
