Dean, you may have been reading OLD DUTCHESS FOREVER THE STORY OF AN AMERICAN COUNTY (1956) by Henry Boble Maccracken You can find it on Google Books: www.books.google.com Search for Dutchess ----- Original Message ---- From: DEAN V. DANNEWITZ <dannd@embarqmail.com> To: NYDUTCHE-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, June 23, 2008 10:15:22 AM Subject: [NYDUTCHE] History of Dutches County Recently while browsing through a lot of links I happened on a link to an old book on the history of Duchess County. It was about 576 pages long and I could read it one page at a time on the internet. I cannot remember the exact title but it was being preserved by some college and is not in print. I got so immersed in reading this that I did not make note of how to get back to it. Then when I took a break, Microsoft took over with an urgent update that required the computer to reboot, and it did, and I lost the contact. Can anyone help me find this book again? I had a lot of detail in it - much more than the one that is readily available on the Duchess County website. It must have been written before 1860, but I am not sure.
