For sale on ebay: a copy of "The History of the Early Settlement of Norton County, Kansas" by F. M. Lockard. This is a tremendous resource if you have early (before 1894) Norton County family ties. He starts with a history of the county and chronicles the whole county seat war in extensive detail, but most of the rest of the book contains biographical information and some engravings.
