If anyone has one they would like to sell or someone could tell me where I might be able to obtain a copy I would very much appreciate it. "Picturesque Huron County Ohio, 1896" Many thanks, Jerry Long >> Hi Jerry, Have you tried ebay.com? Were you aware that biographical and portrait information contained in this book can be found on the web site for HCC/OGS (www.roosweb.com/~ohhuron)? If not, and until you get your hands on a copy of the book, go to the web site , then scroll down to, and click on, "Pictures." This will bring up the page "Celebrating Huron County, Ohio in Pictures." Next, scroll down to "Picturesque Huron." Under this heading you can then click on either "Portraits" or "Biographies." These bios and portraits occupy a relatively small (but valuable) part of the book. Most of the book is devoted to pictures of residences and other buildings of Huron County. It is divided as follows: 1. Pages 2-270---------pictures of residences and other buildings. 2. Pages 271-281-----portraits of those whose biographies follow. 3. Pages 281-290-----brief biographies. 4. Pages 291-295-----Index of Views (see 1. above). 5. Page 295-------------Index of Portraits (see 2. above). 6. Appendix, Pages 1-15--------Geographical Index. 7. Appendix, Pages 16-18------Biographical Index (see 3. above). Regards, Ken Shute
