Thanks to everyone who tried to help me find the original text of an article entitled "Early History of Clark County, Indiana" by Mrs. C. R. Cogswell, circa 5/25/1923. Seems we have solved the mystery. An ABBREVIATED version of Mrs. Cogswell's report was published in the News and Journal; however, the text provided to me by Jim VanDerMark is much more detailed and apparently more complete. BTW, the full text of this article can be found on the Clark County USGENWEB page, along with the text of William McCoy's 1885 and 1886 articles, at http://www.rootsweb.com/~inclark/clark.htm Again, thanks for your help.
