Rick, I've been very impressed with Higginson's books. The Webster volumes are far better than Allen County's collection. Although you do make a good point it will arrive much faster and having a CD that you can do a search on is superb. Beats the heck out of thumbing through page after page.

I have obtained hard copies from Higginson and they are fair reproductions, but take a considerable time to acquire. I also have CD 450 and it works well. > >Regards, >Rick Gant > > > >> >> >> Today's Topics: >> #1 [OHBELMON-L] "History of Belmont & ["The Howells" <lhowell@wk.net>] >> #2 [OHBELMON-L] Belmont and Jefferson ["donna seletyn" <indianrun@1st.net] >> >> Subject: [OHBELMON-L] "History of Belmont & Jefferson Cos., OH," >> Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2000 17:19:13 -0700 >> From: "The Howells" <lhowell@wk.net> >> To: OHBELMON-L@rootsweb.com >> >> Hello Everyone, >> I noticed in a post someone spoke of a book called the "History of Belmont & >> Jefferson Cos., OH," . >> Could some one tell me how I can get a copy of this book? >> Don Howell >> >> ______________________________ >> >> ----------------------------------------------------------------------- - >> >> Subject: [OHBELMON-L] Belmont and Jefferson Counties >> Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2000 21:45:05 -0400 >> From: "donna seletyn" <indianrun@1st.net> >> To: OHBELMON-L@rootsweb.com >> >> You can purchase THE HISTORY OF BELMONT AND JEFFERSON COUNTIES from Higginson book company! The book cost $68.00 and has 611 pages. They have a web site where you can print out an order form. www.higginsonbooks.com >> When you get to there page just do a search on OHIO and then scroll down to Belmont County to find the book!! It takes six to ten weeks for the book to arrive. I just got mine two weeks ago. I hope this helps Donna indianrun@1st.net > >
